Tenth Annual Two Strike Survival Pool

[Willie99]

Gentlemen, there is a 12 way tie for third place. The third place prize in $ 1,000. That equals $ 83.33 per person

All 12 people eliminated in week 13 are part of this. I'm going to suggest we keep playing for that $ 1,000.

Everyone please confirm in this thread if you're in. If somebody wants out, let me know, I'll pay you your share and everyone else can keep playing

I'm going to suggest we keep the existing contest going, you just have to post your play here and make sure that team is available to you. I'll do my best to stay on top of this

 

[Willie99]

More importantly, there are two contestants remaining


Sean R, Marines friend I think

Shale - Matt, Shale's friend

Neither are regulars around here. Pretty sure Sean came in second two years ago

Once a decision has been made for a chop or not. I will message you contact information for Matt so the two of you can figure out financials.

 

[Willie99]

At least you're around Shale. Marines and his buddy are way harder to communicate with.

Let me know what Matt is thinking, I'll forward any proposal

Future contests, maybe we can master list of phone and/or emails?

Hey Willie & Shale - sorry, I'm definitely around.

1. As a recent elimination - I am in on continuing to play / monitor picks on this board
2. Yes, Sean is my friend - happy to coordinate any communication, but I believe he is good to move forward at this point / continue playing. Happy to set up some open communication between him and Matt though - let me know

Have reached out to Matt on my end. He will get back this afternoon

okay cool - I will do the same since I overlooked the chop comment. Doesn't hurt to entertain something. I'll report back with any updates.

Marines, spoke to Matt, this is the suggestion he came up with.
1.) split 14$ and play it out for 3$ til the end
OR
2.) no split and play it out til the end

Once you have a chance to communicate and get back, will go from there.

 

[-Marines-]

Hey Shale - I was able to connect with Sean and he’d prefer option 2 - play it out til the end.

Appreciate Matt coming up with the proposal.

Gentlemen, the 12 people eliminated in Week 13 are all tied for third place. That's $ 83.33 per person.

I'm proposing we keep on playing for third place, with the winner taking the $ 1,000.

Problem is, we can't do it on Yahoo. So you would have to post your plays in this thread or in the contest thread on the forum. All picks will be known to everyone, no way to keep them a secret. Not worth the effort for me

Please make sure you don't pick a team you've already used. I will check the best I can

Please confirm your participation either in this thread or in the contest thread on the forum.

Special rules for third place extended contest

1) If you pick a team you already used, I will replace that team with the biggest favorite you haven't used

2) If you say you're in but didn't make a pick, I will assign you the biggest favorite you haven't used

We're operating outside the box here. We're all risking $ 83 to win $ 1,000, so I want to keep it fun

If first place and $ 15,000 was in play, I wouldn't adopt those rules

This is the word of the Willie
