Only way to really make it fair is all picks be revealed and no one can PO anyone.

they all have to be out in the open so everyone has fair shot.

Who ever is in lead picks first.


I dont know man..would that really be fair to the person in the lead?..if they had the same side as the others they would have won automatically..this just enables the 2nd and 3rd players to take a shot based on the leaders pick..I dont know..you 3 decide..and will be tuff if Pub dont chime in

Who ever is in lead picks first? Why would that be and why would they have to be in the open? No one would post...they would hold out til the other did...like Saturday *ahem....(j/k pubguy) Denniz is here now making sure they get posted after kickoff...I'm not ok with posting in the open and leader going first. Also what does PO anyone mean?

Here is the problem you have

If Pubguys pick is staying Florida I going Ok so you are going to have to win one way or the other.

The only thing you can hope for is Pub shows up cause unfortunately your lead is meaningless except for the tiebreaker with Pub

What I was trying to do is give you a chance to pick Florida and then no one else could.

Dont know just trying to come up with something so we can all watch the game and enjoy.


I dont know dick now that I wrote it out that would be giving Pub a shot of winning when he shouldnt.

Fuck this. Ill take a $100 buy out and leave peacefully:cripwalk:

you MFers

so I know pub had Fla, you know I had OK....so there is a chance TTP and IAG would've picked FLA and I had a chance at chopping before the Pub pick was made....

I feel like I just got rapppppped!

Agreed here. I like the totals idea, although from my viewpoint, since I had planned to pick Florida before knowing PG pick, if Florida wins, I may now risk losing after being a guaranteed winner because of a new factor (PG play getting exposed) On the other hand, definitely not PG fault either. And I had forgotten about TTP being in the mix still too. I don't know who he would have picked.

Maybe we put the $450 on one side...hope it wins, then split the $900. Hell I don't know. But I feel like throwing in other things like a total at this stage of the game is only advantageous to TTP and PG and hurting me. But maybe that's because I am the only one who knows that I was really going to pick Florida, and I am operating on the assumption that Florida wins... that's why it seems so unfair to me.

Where is WW? He seems to have a lot of experience in these matters.

TTP.. I see what you were saying now. We are going to think ourselves into madness. I say at this point we make it a joint venture and try to win some money to divide. I know this defeats the purpose of a competition etc..but I don't want any hard feelings at the end of this...but we could jointly pick a team to bet on ..then hedge it on our own if we want and all be guaranteed something.

Does that make sense? I guess that is basically the same as splitting the $450 which I would be fine with too except betting it would be more fun.

Yeah..thats the prob..I also think TTP would have taken Ok..If they win then he gets the shaft


True true. All of us can legitimately make a case for being the victim. That's why I am hesitantly ok to bet it jointly or split it. I just don't see any other way.

He is my final say for this issue tonight..it wont be resolved now anyway and it requires someone to put their ass in the air and submit

I will say:

Inactiongirl had Fla and Fla win would have won her $450..

TTP had Oklahoma and if they win he is out the $

Pubguy would have had no shot..but has a gripe in that his play was posted early

None of this can be changed now..whats done is done..

I say include the totals in the next game and PM them to me..I

will post them during the K-off..

Or....TTP has OK..Inaction has Fla..and Pubguy does not pay out his loss..just food for thought-the Menace

Very Accurate Assesment DDM....but no way do way I want to play totals.. If FLA wins, I could be out $50 instead of winning my rightful $450? Doesn't seem right. But none of it does. Last time.. I will split, joint bet, or I am sticking to original rules and my intended pick of Florida. If I win, I would not make PG pay.

You are right none of it gets settled tonight, but there's my stance. I won't be around all day tomorrow so I wanted to confirm that is my position. Still don't know what PO means in this context. I know who you are talking about just don't know what he did in a contest.


Man is Pubguy going to have some reading to do when he gets back here.
