and hey, what is a (MBbb COntest) ? - :36_11_6: is that a cocktail title ?
 
Yes, i had a bunch of cocktails

go to Wagerline.com

click MLB

click scores and odds

Look at the big blaring 10
 
I love you frito, im sorry for being such a dick, but wagerline has the line at 10

so ur telling me - if i would have posted (under) 9.5 and if the line closed at 10.5 - you would have gave me a win even though my bet ticket lost ?
(i post the totals i get -if they're no good what's the sense in posting it ?)
IF IT WAS 10 or 10.5 I WOULD HAVE NEVER POSTED IT TO BEGIN WITH !!!
(because i would not have bet it then)
hey whatever man - my account says i won - that's all i really care about

basically, I think it was you that messaged me earlier this season about it. Other then RL's, Wagerline closing lines are what I use. It says right in the rules and has all season, and no you dont have to post your line, some people dont
 
If any1 has a better solution theen feel free to tell me, but i think its fair, everyone gets the same line, and you pushed anyway (in the contest)

what i pm'd you about (in the beginning) was the (ml) movement results
which usually wouldn't change someones decision on a pick anyway.
but totals (over/unders) are a completely different situation when moved.
a TOTAL movement of (.5) or (1) makes a huge difference to me for sure.
(the difference of whether i'm going to actually play it or not) it's huge !
if i like an over at 7.5 then it jumps to 8.5 by the time i go to bet it,
i will definately not be betting it then - that is a simple fact.
if i like an under at 8.5 then it drops to 7.5 by the time i go to bet it,
i will definately not be betting it then - that too is a simple fact.
my point is - i'm only posting what i'm betting - at the current number -
(specifically totals - if it wasn't for having that # i wouldn't be on it)

if i ever posted an (u) 8.5 and the line closed at 9.5 then it landed on 9
(i would never accept a win for that based on this current procedure)

i'm not trying to give you a hard time - but movement on a total is big

you're doing a good job and everyones having fun here too - good luck !

[if there's any changes in the current procedure give me a holler]
 
you certainly prove a good point , i ran this same exact contest in covers for NCAAB hoops and used basically the same rules. Ill consider changing the rules if anyone else has a problem with this, but it is a free contest, not like im ripping you off or something if you know what I mean
 
but it is a free contest, not like im ripping you off or something if you know what I mean
right on - you can do it however you want to do it - that's up to you -

but for anyone to post a pick that really means nothing why do it at all ?

no big deal -do it however you want to do it -have fun with the contest !
