Two Friday night games that could turn into 3 or more due to weather concerns with the hurricane off the East coast. This is a week that you may want to have picks made for all games on Friday.
I have no idea what is going on with the site. I hope everyone is able to get picks in. 5 of us had picks in before the issue. It came up last night long wnough for Cindy and I to screw up our pics.
The site is up and appears to be stable right now... Get those picks in before it nose dives again. Also, game changes and tie breaker changes. Those idiots have one of the tie breakers as score LSU vs Florida. :?
If the page comes up incomplete, refresh your browser. Did that to me when I got my picks changes completed. Good luck to all. We are headed to Moparfest in Sealy Texas this morning. Tomorrow is the racing! https://www.facebook.com/events/1736655623240227/ But FIRST, Lunch today at the Hemi Hideout!!! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7KSioQa173s" frameborder="0"></iframe>
site is acting normal now, I got my vote in with no problem. Picked Fla but only gave them 1 confidence point! For the tie breaker I have them winning a 2 to 1 game...I don't think that's possible though.
Remember, I preach every year to get your picks in early in the week. You can always change them up to 5 minutes before the kickoff of each game. This week was agreat example of why I say that. I make my first rev of picks on Tuesday and usually make subtle changes on Wednesday and again on Friday. However, I designed a built a spreadsheet that makes this process of making changes easy and quick. Stu continues to call his pick set "Stu's Cat" and we all know why. Mine may change next year to "Tom's Spreadsheet". 8)
Now, A group rules issue to discuss... We had special circumstances this week that nobody could see coming. Whe games started changing and being postponed, the site went down and was accessible for almost 24 hours. Members could be traveling to games and not have fair access to the site. We did something several years ago and I would like to discuss doing that again this year with a vote of more in favor than not. This week, Scott got no picks in and it could have been due to his travels to the game and the site not being accessible when he was available to make his picks. I propose to give him, and anyone else that in the future cannot get picks in, 10 points below the lowest weekly score for that week. This means that the site and our official points total will not be in sync. I will start poll topic.
Waiting on results of the poll I started. Until the poll results are in, here is what we have: With the Georgia vs South Carolina game over, week 6 is in the books. Tell me again why Florida and LSU couldn't do the same thing... KP wins week 6 by 14 points over 2nd place Fitz. Week 6 top 5 KP Fitz Treefrog I gotta football Jones RoGator Overall standings - Has not updated but my projected standings are: Down -- PL --- TP -- Top 10 -- Team name 0 ------ 01 --- 1170 --- 6 --- I gotta Football Jones 22 ---- 02 --- 1148 --- 6 --- KP 41 ---- 03 --- 1129 --- 4 --- Lady Vol 43 ---- 04 --- 1127 --- 5 --- Treefrog 83 ---- 05 --- 1087 --- 4 --- Bryanspicks 89 ---- 06 --- 1081 --- 4 --- Stu's Cat 98 ---- 07 --- 1072 --- 3 --- Bear Down Rick 103 -- 08 --- 1067 --- 4 --- CheesecurdWolverine 106 -- 09 --- 1064 --- 4 --- NC Gator 107 -- 10 --- 1063 --- 2 --- Irishboy 114 -- 11 --- 1056 --- 3 --- RoGator 134 -- 12 --- 1036 --- 3 --- BamaBo 137 -- 13 --- 1033 --- 3 --- newalbanybuckeye 150 -- 14 --- 1020 --- 1 --- JO'Co 182 -- T15 --- 988 --- 1 --- mrsjoco 182 -- T15 --- 988 --- 1 --- LoneStarIrish 192 -- 17 ---- 978 --- 1 --- SunBeltorBust 202 -- 18 ---- 968 --- 2 --- Fitz 230 -- 19 ---- 940 --- 5 --- Scott Loses AGAIN
:idea: :arrow: It was not possible to get my picks in before Thursday. I was so busy, that I didn't even turn on the computer until Thursday; then the website wouldn't allow me to get in.
... and if you had not been able to get in and make your picks, I would be campaigning for you to get the same thing I want to do for Scott. If you had not made your picks, the lowest score would have been Terry with 142. If that deal had been established and you didn't make picks, your score would have been 132. As it is, you got 136 points! 8)
Ok this is weird. I did put my picks in! I did them right before I did those on my Aggie site which shows my scores worked just fine. I have no idea what happened... Tom I appreciate the thought, but I'm ok with just letting it go. We all know I was due for a swan dive to the bottom of the pool soon anyway. 8)
The vote has stalled at 7 to 1 in favor of the "parachute" clause. I'm calling it a done deal. Here are the revised standings that will differ slightly from the site from this point forward. Revised week 6 standings: Down -- PL --- TP -- Top 10 -- Team name 0 ------ 01 --- 1170 --- 6 --- I gotta Football Jones 22 ---- 02 --- 1148 --- 6 --- KP 41 ---- 03 --- 1129 --- 4 --- Lady Vol 43 ---- 04 --- 1127 --- 5 --- Treefrog 83 ---- 05 --- 1087 --- 4 --- Bryanspicks 89 ---- 06 --- 1081 --- 4 --- Stu's Cat 98 ---- 07 --- 1072 --- 3 --- Bear Down Rick 103 -- 08 --- 1067 --- 4 --- CheesecurdWolverine 104 -- 09 --- 1066 --- 5 --- Scott Loses AGAIN 106 -- 10 --- 1064 --- 4 --- NC Gator 107 -- 11 --- 1063 --- 2 --- Irishboy 114 -- 12 --- 1056 --- 3 --- RoGator 134 -- 13 --- 1036 --- 3 --- BamaBo 137 -- 14 --- 1033 --- 3 --- newalbanybuckeye 150 -- 15 --- 1020 --- 1 --- JO'Co 182 -- T16 --- 988 --- 1 --- mrsjoco 182 -- T16 --- 988 --- 1 --- LoneStarIrish 192 -- 18 ---- 978 --- 1 --- SunBeltorBust 202 -- 19 ---- 968 --- 2 --- Fitz
