Why don't you explain the rules before Sunday? You're in 2nd place so I'm sure you could care less about everyone else but what happens on ties for this month? Are the rules the same as they were for the other months? What happens if people tie in the yearly standings? I'm sorry if you feel put out but when you get a chance please clarify the RULES.
I believe I already stated above, that any ties would split the prizes equally for their spots.....Isnt that what i said?
Since a lot of people put their picks in early before the final week, it wouldnt be fair to do a tiebreaker and have someone not put one in, because they didnt look here, thinking the contest was done....
I still fail to see how this reflects your above comment that we are "PENALIZING YOU"....
If 2 people tie in the overall for say 5th and 6th, you would take the prize for 5th, and the prize for 6th, and add them together, and divide by 2.....therefore, noone is being "penalized"...
We will do the same thing for monthly.....
If there is a tie for 2nd and 3rd, we will add the 250.00 and the 150.00 and each would get 200.00..
Still dont see anyone being "penalized".......
Earlier in the year, we put in a tiebreaker, but that was back when people were checking the forum each week, putting in next week's picks etc......
Since the picks are over, i am afraid that some wouldnt see it, and it wouldnt be fair to them...
Of course thats what i get for trying to be fair, someone immediately assuming they are being SCREWED OVER......
Thats normal.......
