PROPOSED NCAA & NFL FOOTBALL CONTESTS

[COYOTEBLUE]

THESE ARE JUST MY INITIAL THOUGHTS ON RULES FOR THE UPCOMING FOOTBALL SEASONS IN BOTH COLLEGE AND THE PROS ...

:mj07: I KNOW IT IS EARLY YET ... BUT I CAN'T WAIT :mj07:

-SEPARATE CONTESTS FOR NCAA FOOTBALL AND NFL ... REGULAR SEASON ONLY WILL BE TRACKED FOR EACH CONTEST

-BEFORE EITHER CONTEST STARTS RULES WILL BE POSTED ... ANYONE WANTING THEIR PLAYS INCLUDED IN THE CONTEST MUST REGISTER ON THE CONTEST RULES THREAD INDICATING THEY HAVE READ ALL THE RULES

-NO EDITTING OF POSTS ONCE ENTERED ... A NEW ENTRY MUST BE MADE TO CORRECT ANY ERRORS IN ORIGINAL POST

-ALL ENTRIES MUST BE MADE BY GAME TIME

-NO PARLAYS OR BUYING OF POINTS WILL BE TRACKED ... IF A CAPPER WISHES TO LIST THEM THAT IS FINE BUT WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN CONTEST

-EACH CONTESTANT WILL START WITH $10,000

-LIMIT ON ANY BET OR ANY GIVEN DAY IS THE AMOUNT IN BANKROLL AT THE START OF THE DAY

-ANY CONTESTANT WHO RUNS OUT OF MONEY WILL GET ANOTHER $10,000 RELOAD THE FOLLOWING DAY (RELOADS ALSO WILL BE TRACKED)

- ALL AMOUNTS ARE ROUNDED TO THE NEAREST DOLLAR

-ALL CONTESTANTS ARE WELCOME TO INDICATED PLAY OF THE MONTH ... PLAY OF THE YEAR ... OR ANY COMMENTS ON GAMES WHEN POSTING ...

FORMAT FOR POSTING

TYPE OF WAGER ... MONEY LINE/POINT SPREAD/OVER/UNDER

AMOUNT WAGERED TO WIN AMOUNT WHICH WILL NOT INCLUDE THE AMOUNT WAGERED

ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS ???

 

[grandpa]

Which lines are to be used? A standardized day and time, for example:

Thursday noon Pinnacle sports lines.

Just thinking out loud.

 

[ferdville]

Make it as simple as you can for the sake of the guys doing standings

GRANDPA ...
A GOOD IDEA USING STANDARDIZED LINES FOR THE PURPOSE OF HAVEING EVERYONE USING THE SAME LINES ... THE ONLY PROBLEM I SEE IS THAT WEATHER/INJURIES MAY AFFECT THE LINES BETWEEN THURSDAY AND SUNDAY AND CAPPERS WILL BE POSTING PICKS WITH DIFFERENT LINES THAN ARE AVAILABLE ONLINE. NOT QUITE SURE WHAT THE ANSWER IS TO THIS ONE ... IN THE BASEBALL POD COMPETITION THE IDEA WAS TO LEAVE IT UP TO THE CAPPER TO POST TRUE LINES ...

FERDVILLE ...
KEEPING IT SIMPLE TO TRACK IS CERTAINLY IMPORTANT ... THE CALCULATIONS AND TYPING CAN TAKE A LOT OF TIME. ONE THOUGHT I HAD WAS THAT ANYONE WHO WANTED THEIR RECORD TRACKED WOULD HAVE TO FIRST REGISTER ON THE RULES THREAD ... SO ... ANYONE CAN POST THEIR PICKS BUT WILL ONLY BE TRACKED AFTER REGISTERING AND INDICATING THEY HAVE READ ALL THE RULES. THE INTENT OF THE THREAD IS TO HAVE SOME FRIENDLY COMPETITION AND ASSIST ALL CAPPERS IN (HOPEFULLY) MAKING SOME MONEY. :clap:
IN THE RULES THREAD I WILL BE POSTING THE FORMAT FOR POSTING OF PICKS AND WAS ALSO THINKING THAT ALL CAPPERS WHO ARE BEING TRACKED SHOULD POST THEIR OWN RECORD WHEN MAKING SELECTIONS TO VERIFY MY TRACKING.

THOUGHTS AND COMMENTS FROM ALL ARE WELCOME HERE ...
