[AJA]

I enter this challenge every week, but I don't see a place where I can attach my picks to the FBG Forum. Is there a different link to use? How can my score get attributed to FBG?

 

[ThePittbully]

Maybe the problem is the email notification being mailed out is not the same link as here in the thread

 

[nickel&dime]

I only missed one this week but I still finished 993 out of 3310. O well, at least I beat Bloom and Dodds. Let's get number 1 this week guys

Thanks for helping to mask my horrid performance last week. I was shocked FBG moved up to first place after I saw my sad score.My picks are in. Feel'n better about them this week.

Yes, you're correct that there is a different link for each forum. Your picks will be credited to FBG if you use the link in this thread. You can alway verify that you're in the right spot by checking the URL. It will include 'football-guys' and the poll header will mention the forum as well.

Are we still short on the amount of polls taken?

The week 12 results are now available, and it wasn't the best week for Footballguys. You're still in 3rd place, but you lost some ground to the top 2 forums. Look to rebound when the week 13 poll comes out in a couple days!

That is correct, but using the PAY methodology (Prediction Accuracy Yield) to do scoring has some key advantages over total points or win %. For more info on PAY and why we use it, check out this link: http://www.fantasypros.com/2011-fantasypros-forum-challenge/
