Pro Football Pick'em

[Sheik]

If that is the numb1fan from the AOHell boards,he can give you advice on running a picks contest.

He busts his ass every year to run the on the board picks contest over there.Does a great job.

I'm thinking it is, Jay also registered to this site right now.

If he's open to helping us run one next year, that would be awesome, we're always open to help anywhere we can get it.

For this year, I think we'll just run it through yahoo because it's already so close to the season and Midswat set up a league.

Thanks, 6.

Sure.Yeah running it through Yahoo is the way to go this year.With SBK and Numb1 having the experience of running these contests,might want to run it here next year.Just thought I'd mention it.

Jay is another guy that should be a good add here.

Hope he and Numb1 both start posting.

Yes, can somebody please give me some advice on running a pickem contest?

Just a few pointers. Some tips I could use.

The one you put on every year at the DCC was as organized as I've seen one, especially since it was run on the board vs. On a site that tracks the stats for you.

I'm sure it's still being done.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I heard they kept the Melsy, I don't know about the Pickem league.

Just like they will imitate the Melsy.

Now that's one thing I really wish you would do here.

Dammit, timestamped!!

Well, of course.

You can't expect anything original.

Yeah, I'll do it here. Everybody gets a division.

Nice.

I'm sure you run a picks contest quite well.

From what Cr122 and Sheik say,as good as there is.

Just trying to help out.

C'mon, now we'll have enough interest by then. lol

We are at 81 members, we are only 130 away from DCC, and we just started this thing a few months ago.

Plus, if they keep registration closed, we could catch them sooner.

Any information is helpful sixisbetter, thanks.

I'm not interested in catching anyone.

You need 32 active members to do it. I don't see it happening this year.

And even then, you need 32 active members that would be willing to participate. It was hard enough filling a 10 team fantasy league.

Yep. We'd even have a few site controlled teams every year. If we ran one in April, half the league wouldn't be filled.

Yeah that was a pretty good one...I just hated when I would forget a week and get eliminated

Last year was the first and only time I participated. I had to bow out around week 13 or so, I was way too far behind and it made no sense to have sbk calculate the pics that didn't matter.

But yeah, miss a week and you're out. lol

I put that rule in as a way to shrink the field and make scoring easier. The start of every season sucked balls scoring 50 guys every week.

I was hoping people would miss their picks.
