The second tie breaker is predicting the correct total score (without going over). The third tiebreaker will be the member who has the most posts from Jan. 1st 2009 until Super Bowl Sunday.

Prizes will be:
1st $175
2nd $75

Prizes will only be paid via paypal directly from JoJo. Good luck!

Good luck with the contest everyone. If a score (total) was not posted, it will be considered a zero for the game. As teams get beat, we will soft delete the posts.

 

[Fondybadger]

69/143 were knocked out on Saturday

 

[BetCrimes1984]

I think we can unlock the thread for a bit of smack talking Fondy, since it's obvious noone can get away with posting any picks at this point.

:cheers:

See tiebreaker number 3. opcorn:

 

[ddk997]

Eagles over Pittsburgh by 3
16-13

 

[broadwayjoe]

thanks harmy i had forgotten that

 

[HarmyG]

Eagles Vs Steelers. 45 pts.

Does larrybowa03's pick mean he picked the eagles to win?

 

[HarmyG]

This could get interesting if the Cardinals or Ravens win the SB, since just two people picked the Ravens and zero picked Zona. The contest would still look at the rest of the tie-breakers to pay out to third place, correct? Would be amazing considering we had 143 entries.

The partners need to get on the same page about that. For example I would not have deleted my own entry of Pittsburgh over Giants. As there is only 1 Pittsburgh over Cardinals, and in that scenario I would go 1st place to them, everyone else who had Pittsburgh over someone else is tied for 2nd, would go to the total point tie breaker than for 2nd and 3rd. So there are a few entries in my opinion that need to be restored pending the Cardinals in the Super Bowl.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Yeah, numerous deleted entries had Baltimore along with the 2 still visible Baltimore picks. A Baltimore/AZ SB ressurrects my entry'an_horse'

better question is what does "hova" mean a few posts up from it.

 

[Capt. Slap]

THANK YOU JoJo!

AND THANK YOU ARIZONA

[RickFlair]WOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooOOOO!![/RickFlair]

 

[BetCrimes1984]

someone counting chickens?

if Baltimore makes it, theres still plenty of competitors

 

[Capt. Slap]

I'd also like a user title change like everyone else gets when they win one of these contests

1st ever CTG Contest win...I feel like I'm finally part of the family

 

[Capt. Slap]

No actually BetCrimes, I win no matter what.

Sorry bro.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

how? if its an AZ/Baltimore SB, then all the Baltimore entries currently disregarded (meaning those deleted) get ressurrected.

 

[Capt. Slap]

Dude no. I am the only one to have picked Arizona to win the NFC. That means there is only 1, I, he, him.

A bunch of you picked Baltimore, as well as Pittsburgh. Percentages my man. Percentages.
