Be thinking about this: Who would like to take over this contest starting next year. I am having less fun with college football, especially Tennessee than ever before. I'll still be around but may not even participate in the contest next year. Please let me know who would like to take it over.
I hate to hear this Tom. I look at this contest and I just blindly guess games for fun. I just try to have fun with it. Sometimes, I just randomly pick the numbers. But I love playing it.
I agree with Corey, Tom... Nothing says you have to keep running the show, but please stay in. I know how you feel... in the depths of the Franphony debacle I was ready to leave the ledge. (For the record, I don't think Tennessee is in near that bad shape) It taught me a little different perspective. I still get a little boisterous, but my life doesn't revolve around my team.
Everyone picked Washington State in the last game. I have performed a calculation based upon Washington winning. If that does not happen, I will change the totals tomorrow. Or if my calculations are off, I will fix it tomorrow. Week 10 was won by JO'Co by 1 point over I Gotta Football Jones.

I did make a 10 point error in one member's total points. This did not change the overall positions.

I have found no way to pass off the commissioner position to another person. Whoever takes over the contest next year will have to manually add e-mail addresses so that people that are not frequent fliers on the Skybox will get notification of the group being set up. The person that accepts this responsibility will receive a list of e-mail addresses.
Also, there will be no request to run/report as I do. This will be completely up to the person that takes over. It will be your contest to run as you see fit. I will supply the spreadsheet I use in case you want it.
I think that there are 4 weeks left in the regular season and Conference championship games. If there is going to be a bowl contest, the commissioner needs to be picked.
T - I wouldn't mind doing it again. The problem I have is that sometimes I have extra time to look at this stuff and other times I don't. That's why I turned it over the first time (and really stopped playing) because there were several weeks where I couldn't get the picks out on time nor get the scores up.

Wooo hoooo I had my best week of the year! I went with the upset special this week since I'm mired so far in the cellar. Some worked out and some didn't of course, but I picked the right weekend to go for the upset! There actually was a top 6 since I tied Lady Vol with 159 points!!
NC Gator takes week 12 over kp and LadyVol by 17 points... one of the largest margin of victory this year. Congrats to NC Gator.

Two more weeks. I have no idea how many games will be available. Looks like a full slate in week 13 but I only see 9 possible games on week 14. Good luck to all.
