I have asked now for the third time for the rules of the up coming PPPP contest this year. I dont think it is asking too much to post the rules. Why is this taking so long ?

when does it start ?

Scott-Atlanta, the rules for PPPP(4) have not been finalized yet. Nor has the date. Once everything is set up I will post in the appropriate forum. Hope to see you there! Thanks for your interest in the PPPP series, the premier contest of it's kind on the net today!

then can I see the rules that are being worked on ? I dont think this is fair beforehand not to have the rules. That shows a certain amount of unpreparedness that concerns me about such endeavers.

I think you are dodging this . I may not participate if you cant tell me the rules. There is too much chance of fraud.

Is there something fishy going on ?

Scott, the rules are always clearly laid out before the start of the contest. Only a few malcontents (Bobby Blue Balls, yyz, barfly) seem to have trouble understanding them. You can review them when they are posted. Thanks once again for your interest in the premier contest of it's kind on the net today, the PPPP series!!!

The rules aren't really set in stone anyway. They're more of a fluid thing that changes during the season. My favorite rule is the one that Petey just tells us what he would have posted had he had access to the computer. He kicked himself out of the contest after he was caught, but it still seems fishy.

Who would have known that I would be the one keeping the integrity intact of the PPPP contest?

Then can I see last years rules ?

This should not be too much to ask petey if this contest is on the up and up.

Nice of Bobbybluechips to come in and give his side of the story.

PP did you really kick yourself out of your own contest ?

just wondering

Scott, that incident that blue balls mentioned was a misunderstanding. But yes, I did boot myself. You can do a search and find the rules for the last 3 contests. They are typically in the thread where I announce that the PPPP excitement is right around the corner. One will be in the baseball forum, one in pro football and one in pro basketball. Happy hunting!

The rules are simple:

1. Post your pick in the given thread each week for what you think the total penalty yards will be for the week, including the MNF game. A thread will be posted by me each week by wednesday for the following week. I don't anticipate missing this deadline like I did once in the PPPP(2) when I was too hungover from my crazy weekend in Twin Falls, ID (wild chicks there guys) and fell asleep at like 5pm and didn't wake up until 10 am the next morning.

2. Only ONE mulligan is allowed. It shouldn't be that hard for you deadbeats to manage to post once a week for 16 out of 17 weekends.

3. Edited posts will be ignored. If you made a typo, post immediately under your post.

4. It is likely that towards the end we will go with a blind pick option. As you all know by now, some of this stuff we play by ear, but it's ALWAYS fair too!

5. This time around, NO late entries will be accepted(njsf25g). There is plenty of time for everybody to post on time. No excuses!!!

As always at the PPPP, the lower score the better. If you pick 2000 and the number is 2050, your score is 50.

Prizes go as follows:

1st place- $400 cash

2nd place- $250 cash

3rd place- $100 cash


Places 4-10 will receive a mj t-shirt or a lucky mug (your choice).

Places 1-3 do not receive this in this contest. Isn't the cash enough, you greedy bastards?

Other people will receive bonuses of t-shirts, or whatever, at my discretion.

Please keep in mind that we run a tight ship here at PPPP, and smart-asses will be dealt with accordingly. Thank you.

do you always do yardage of penalties ? There is no way to cap that lucky crap. what up ?

The funny thing is Scott I was one of those that placed

"Places 4-10 will receive a mj t-shirt or a lucky mug (your choice)."

and I have never seen a hide nor hair of the mug after multiple

requests.

So, not saying they don't do their job, but don't hold your breath

if you win either.

Just my opinion.....

:D

Did you boot yurself because of a stupid mistake or for the integrity of the contest ? I have some experience with contests now so I was wondering.

Scott, at the PPPP HQ, we encourage all feedback to the posted rules. However, the structure of the contest will be at the sole discretion of PPPP management. Even madjack has no say. Also, I noticed how you ran your little writing contests and I really don't think we'll be soliciting your advice. Thank you.

the sole discretion of PPPP management. Aint that you ?


I think you should open it up and see what everyone wants. If you want I could run a voters poll thingee on it. what are you thinking about having ? I could list four or five and then we could have like a democracy election for winner takes all ?

Thanks in advance to PPPP HQ and allowing me input.
