We have 50 spots in the league. Please register your Set Name as your username on the website so it will be easier to follow.
The pick'em game will begin with contests involving Top 25 teams played on Thursday, August 30.
You can join the game at any time, so long as there is a spot open in the group.
You will be picking your games using a point spread, so you have to think about if the team will cover the spread or not along with winning the game.
The lowest week will be dropped from each person's total score at the end of the year.
Prizes:
500 BN Bux for each weekly winner. If tied, each member in the tie receives 500 BN Bux.
Overall Winner receives 550 BN Bux per week that member submitted picks.
Second place and third place will receive 450 BN Bux per week that member submitted picks.
250 BN Bux for playing in the most rounds. If tied, each member in the tie receives 250 BN Bux.
250 BN Bux prize for those with the largest percentage of games picked correctly. You must play at least 10 weeks to be eligible for this prize.The top three will receive an Award, such as the one in my Awards Showcase to the left.
In the event that I change the prizes (decide more BN Bux are needed), I will correct what has been given. For example: If a member wins two weeks and is awarded 1000 BN Bux but I decide to up the weekly prize to 750 BN Bux, I will go back and add the extra BN Bux for previous weeks as to not favor those who win afterwards. I'm not sure if that will be needed, but I wanted you to know how it would be handled should I feel it is necessary.
