NFL Capping Challenge 2016!!! (1 Viewer)

$100 entry. 

Pick 5 NFL games against the spread every week. Person with most wins at end of season, wins. 

Last year 2nd place won $200, winner took the rest. 

Last year Nero won by hitting 63% of his picks. 
How many people entered last year?

Is the plan to still pay only top 2 spots?

 
Paid up via LeagueSafe.

Would be open to discussing paying more people if that attracts more money to the pot via more people wanting to play.

 
Looks like this is dead.
Bump, was thinking to get more buy in, a local league I'm in offers a progressive $100 per week to any team that goes 5-0, and if more than one team goes 5-0 progressive pot split evenly. This is netted off 1st and 2nd place amounts. Makes it possible to win something every single week and gets lots of people to participate outside of the season win amount. Could do $50 progressive too if that makes the math work, but if you do enough people $100 should be achievable without taking too much away from season winner. 

 
yeah checking in. worst case sceario we can start with week 2
Fine with me for my vote. Worst case, if this thing folds with some folks already paid, we have to figure out how to get money out of LS as a refund. Hoping it doesn't come to that, cross that bridge when we get there.

i like the idea if a few pay we work on a consensus play each week or 2 and make 50x what we originaly put in. I have to figure out how to deposit into this again, but can try to in a day or 2

 
Currently 7 paid and a couple more joined but not paid.  I know someone mentioned waiting until week 2.  I don't care what we do.  We might get more in if we wait a week.

 
Pick Deadline

One Hour Before the Days First Game - All Games will lock one hour before the scheduled start of the day's first game. For example, if there is a Thursday night game and a member did not make a selection, they would still be able to make selections for the remaining games. Please note - pool member's selections will only be displayed in the "View All" picks section for games that have locked.

 
I sent invites to everyone that paid.  You can use the invite or the link in provided earlier.  I won't be sending future invites unless you can't get in with the link.  

 
yup, i think it works. just clicked it so i think i am in. will send money tomorrow when Billy Bats does, cause for whatever reason i feel that is what i need to do
I didn't have the spreads turned on so you need to make sure you are good with your picks now that they are on.
