Real College Bowl Pick'em- $50 entry (1 Viewer)

[derek245583]

What's the deal with the spread? Do we make all the picks at once? Are the lines locked in? Can we change picks? Don't care all that much, just want to understand the rules.

Lines are locked inYou can change your picks at anytimeI couldnt find anywhere to change these settings so I am just assuming they are all like this.

Thanks for doing this again, deren34, but just one question:

Fantasy College Bowl Pick'em

Why is it called this? It's cracking me up.

Cause I was high when I started the thread. I will change it.

Glad to see the spreads and no confidence points. While I still would like to see a pool where you can wager 1, 2, or 3 units, this is still better than confidence points.

I'll get setup on the pool website when I get time.

While people are bragging, can I tell my bad beat story where I would have won had Auburn covered 3.5 points? Or if Florida didn't get a pick-six for a backdoor cover with a minute to play? ointstotheshirt:

In

just to clarify, it looks like all picks must be made by 12/17, do you know if we have the ability to change picks after this date or once they're locked we're live?

also, are we going to be able to see everyone else's picks like last year? not to nitpick, but you probably shouldn't have given out the password until people paid, in the event we have a lot of dead entries (people that didn't pay or welched)

anyway, g'luck

I read I can boot anyone I want in the league, so once it starts, I will clean it up and make sure only paid entrants are in.

 

[derek245583]

I cant tell at all if we can change picks or not...There was no option for it.

I will email them and see if someone can tell me. I have no problem with allowing people to do it....just dont know if its an option.

Looks like we are going to be making an executive decision today....

Here are the options:

1) Spreads and no confidence points

2) No spreads and confidence points

3) Spreads and confidence points

Cast your votes. Anyone paid already gets a vote. If you pay by the end of the day today, I will allow you to vote. Majority rules.

Voting will close tomorrow night at midnight after the thursday night football game. Then we will go from there.

I will definitely look into using a website to run the pool so people can access picks and standings easily.

Can people let me know their names they signed up with on the website? I wanna make sure nobody is in the pool that didn't pay to avoid confusion. The obvious ones don't need to waste their time

So as it stands....14 paid members

So 700 in the prize pool. Thinking maybe $500 for first and $200 for second right now....

Pretty sure we are going to get a few more late entries.

You can only get that info from the person who created the pool and invited you to join

I guess I need this invite. I can't find a link on the site to join with the passwords.

ETA: I found it. LOL. The site put my user name and acct password in the fields for the passwords you gave, so I didn't read the field descriptions.
