Wormy ~ You have already posted four picks for this week. I didn't make the rules, but the rules we've been using state:

<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->1 Major Rule is this:
You are NOT allowed to switch your pick once you've made it. Even if you want to change it 1 minute later, so make sure you know what you are taking. This prevents people from changing their picks for strategy purposes or for injury purposes.

I have been giving guys a second chance to name their "lock" or "lotw" when they have forgotten to do so, and I have let guys post a portion of their cards in time for the Thursday game and then add the remaining games later. But in the spirit of fairness, the Rules (as set by Mac, since those are the ones which the contest have been played under) are forcing me to only be able to count your first four picks (posted on 12-10-08):

I am sorry about that Wormy. I hope you understand. And if there's a big issue with me sticking to the initial rules, I am 100% open to you polling the rest of the contest participants to see what they think. In either case, BOL this week Wormy.
I PM'd you sds, so sorry! I tried to get rid of my one win with CHI! No need for apologies sds, I'm the one f'ing up. This is the effect alcohol abuse has on the brain.
