I'd like to start with a 10 day Tip-Off Contest with a $25 entry fee - winner take all. That would start on Tues, Nov 21st and run thru Thur, Nov 30th.
That would be followed up with 3 monthly contests for Dec, Jan and Feb - $50 entry fee for each of those 3. Payouts would be determined by # of entries. Total for all would be $175.

Right now, I'm leaning toward using the same general rules we used for the Hockey Contests (see the Hockey Contest thread and open the link to make selections for a list of rules).

Better yet, here's the link...

will all CBB plays be graded as 1 unit? I see you have options in hockey

You have a preference? I'm flexible. I WOULD like to use the risk amount on all ML plays. Sides and Totals would be basic wagers.

December 1 through February 28, March madness can be a separate contest

$ 100 entry fee, kinda of in the middle

Format is tough, too many games, can be way too time consuming, how about 10 games on the weekends only, kinda like NCAAF, not sure what lines to use though

can we find lines on Wednesday? or do we use closing lines from one of the advertisers? (maybe they sponsor?)

you can also say 10 (or so) games per week using the closing lines from xyz, but that's more manual work for JOH and not easy to format for scoring purposes

saturday card is always heavy....i would be interested in something for like saturday sunday games only...or something like that. the daily grind is too much for me

Hey guys,

I don't mean to butt in on this thread but I just received an email today from a guy I know that is looking to run a season-long NCAABB ATS contest. Basically, he will pick 30 games from the weekend slate and you have to pick any 12 that you want, plus play the pre-selected tiebreaker game. It's $100 to enter. I don't want to step on anyone's toes by providing the info for this contest, but I wanted to help out. If anyone is interested I can forward the email to you.

Thanks

No, I wasn't looking to provide competition, just looking to help out. I respect what you and Betallsports do too much to try to undercut you.
