SDS Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Points changes, Rule changes, etc... Speak now as I am getting ready to setup the pool again and I want the rules set for the welcome email messages that get sent.
BILLS4LIFE Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 ~BUMP~ Im looking forward to this again! I finished best ever last year!
DieHardFan Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Is the pool software flexible enough to allow MNF score pick points to be awarded on a gradient? (eg 2 pts if within 3 pts of score and 1 pt if within 4 - 6 pts). All or nothing based on an exact match is more luck than skill.
Phil Hansen Forever Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 I'm looking forward to it as well, heck I even beat out Tony P!
Bill from NYC Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 The only thing I can think of is how about only one game per person. Last year a person was in there twice with the same screen name.
Beerball Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Can you fix it so I end up in the TOP five this year?

Boston Doc Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Points changes, Rule changes, etc... Speak now as I am getting ready to setup the pool again and I want the rules set for the welcome email messages that get sent. 410608[/snapback] The only question is when, with your busy schedule
SDS Posted August 18, 2005 Author Posted August 18, 2005 The only question is when, with your busy schedule 410980[/snapback] It would have been last night, but I wasn't about to delete every player one by one, so I emailed support on it. Meanwhile there are a lot of options that need to be set, so I wanted to get the rules straight.
KD in CA Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Last year had too much emphasis on the MNF points.
SDS Posted August 18, 2005 Author Posted August 18, 2005 Last year had too much emphasis on the MNF points. 410991[/snapback] we had +3 for MNF +5 for OT +3 for perfect week. what do you suggest?
plenzmd1 Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 we had +3 for MNF+5 for OT +3 for perfect week. what do you suggest? 410994[/snapback] How do i get invited?
#89 Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 we had +3 for MNF+5 for OT +3 for perfect week. what do you suggest? 410994[/snapback] How about a handicap so I can finish on the first page. I think it is pretty fair but I hate when people who miss weeks of games finish in front of me
KD in CA Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 we had +3 for MNF+5 for OT +3 for perfect week. what do you suggest? 410994[/snapback] Was it +3 just for getting the game correct? If so, I don't like that, the MNF game shouldn't be worth more than the other games IMO. I seemed to remember that there were major points for hitting the score right (or close). To me, that's more luck than anything else. It could be worth an extra point or two, but not more than that. Perfect week bonus is good. I don't think too many people try for the OT....but it's kinda like a Hail Mary so that's fine.

So, I guess that is a 4 point game if you hit it.
R. Rich Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 I'll join up again this year. Even though I had a tough year, it was still fun to do.
KD in CA Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 MNF score was a bonus +3 points. So, I guess that is a 4 point game if you hit it. 411071[/snapback] I would vote for a one point bonus for hitting it. But either way...it's all for fun!
Just Jack Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 How about a handicap so I can finish on the first page. I think it is pretty fair but I hate when people who miss weeks of games finish in front of me 411015[/snapback] Yea, get rid of the option where if you haven't entered your picks before the cut-off, the system automatically picks them for you.
Steven in MD Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 MNF score was a bonus +3 points. So, I guess that is a 4 point game if you hit it. 411071[/snapback] You can call me a purist (among other things), but I would like to see the OT bonus go away. How can anyone with any skill tell me a game will go into OT? That has to be luck.
Beerball Posted August 19, 2005 Posted August 19, 2005 Yea, get rid of the option where if you haven't entered your picks before the cut-off, the system automatically picks them for you. 411893[/snapback] I agree. If I remember correctly that was new last year, and was in response to people forgetting to make their picks, or being unable to make them etc. I would recommend dropping that option (no, not just because I finished below dem guys lots of times )
