After changing my entrant name from Mo's Matchless Pick Setpicks to Captain Lee, I received a "request denied" message.

Last year we had 44 entries, you only had to beat 43 other bums

First place $ 16,500
Last unbeaten $ 2,200
Second place $ 2,200
Third place $ 1,100

Last year the first place winner was also the last unbeaten, he won $ 18,700

Also paid a person with the initials DF, I think it's KYwildcats2012 off of long tern memory. Can't confirm until I get back to the states. Unless DF steps forward :)

Post 3 has the important stuff

Run on Yahoo

Two strikes, not one found in your typical survivor pool
Can only use any team one time. Team selections start over if contest runs into the playoffs
If it goes into the playoffs, I only use the first two rounds. Wild Cards and 1st round. After that, winnings prorated

If you add one double pick week like in week 12 it would go a long way in preventing the clusterfuck of picking playoff teams

The yahoo software easily allows for this

How about a double pick week in week 18?

I would much rather do that the final week then pick playoff games

heck triple pick week 18 would be better

Anything to avoid picking playoff teams and prorating prize money would be welcome

I can't change any rules once people start to sign up. I also don't have a problem with going two weeks into the playoffs, we avoid the idiocy that would start after those two rounds. Like not picking your SB winner early because you're saving them for the SB.

I also don't think we've had any issues under the current format.

But I appreciate the input, and if enough people want to begin multiple picks in a few later weeks of the season, I will consider it for future years.

I don’t think it would be hard to talk people into a double pick week in week 18. The final week of the regular season to greatly reduce the odds of the cluster fuck of picking playoff games and prorating payouts
