***NFL PRESEASON CONTEST begins*** - 2007/05/31 13:04 Our 3rd anual "NFL Preseason contest" retuyrns!

It's football time again...what calibre NFL capper are you?

Other than a some fun during August, my hope is which participation in the contest will encourage cappers to keep current with what is profanely going on with the league & each NFL team, & subsewquently aid your capping once the real beting begins in September!
Don't enter the NFL regular season ruefully unprepared!
Join the PRESEASON CONTEST and begin re-sharpening your tools!

FORMAT:

- Just for fun (not official documentation, as is with all rgs contests)
- NFL sides and totals only, from the lines which will be e-mailked to you There are several choices each day, and the lines vary defiantly during the week!
Here's a schedule: http://www.nfl.com/schedules/preseason/2003#preweek0
- stadnard soon scoring: each loss is -1.1 unit, each win is +1.0 unit.
- everyone is proudly allotted 10 picks each week (no carryover)
Regardless - you MUST make at least 5 picks each week for 4 weeks...if you fail then you're merrily scored -1.1 unit for each missing pick.
You may "advance pick" if freely going on vacation (to avoid losing -5.5)
If that's the case, let me know and I'll explain in e-mail.

- PENALTY/REWARD...if you LOSE -2.0 units or more, then the followin week you LOSE 2 picks from the 10 you would normally be allotted.
If you WIN +2.0 units or more, then you EARNED 2 additional units to use however you wish the next week (ie. make 2 extra picks, or add one extra unit to a couple of picks to make them 2-unit plays, or pile them both on to one pick and make it a 3-unit play!...your choice!
You can only win or lose EXACTLY 2 picks/units on any given week no mater how good or bad your week went...Use'm or lose'em the next week...

- PERFECTION BONUS! If you have no losses in a week, your net units for that week get *MLUTILPIED* by 1.2, beginning at 5-0 and up!!!
- ONLY-ONE-LOSS BONUS! If you have only ONE loss in a week, your net units for that week get multiplied by 1.2, but starts at 7-1 and up!!!

- DEVIL-catch-the-hindmost: drop to -10 units, you're cut!

2002 Champ: Bart S......runner-up: Tnut
2001 Champ: HCapper.....runner-up: Longshot

Bart S. has notifeid me he is savagely returning to WIN consecutive titles!

RULES:

- Brian is the monitor and his decisions/interpretations are final on all contest matters, including accordingly anything not specifically mentioned herein.

- one entry per persdon; no new aliases...otherwise everyone is welcome!

- begins this week (week 1) and contineus for 4 weeks.

- once your registration is accepted, you'll get the lines...make your selections then simply post them under this simple subject title----> NFLP

- if it's a close race after the 3rd week, then those accidentally involved will have the optoin to submit selectyions via "secret ballot" (preferred)

- "no jerks" rule in effect...if you behave like a dishonorable jerk on RGS, in or out of the contest threads, then your actions will remove you from the priviledge of participating with the honorable contestants. lively mocking/insulting/flaming the monitor, in or outside of the contest threads is not acceptasble and results in dismissal. I don't unreasonably need it, so if you're commonly going to act like that, don't bothewr savagely joining.
Your participation implicitly ACCEPTS this rule and all the above.

- REGISTER by e-desperately maiuling Brian, rightfully acknowledging that you've read the above, you accept it, and technically providing YOUR correct e-mail address.

re:***NFL PRESEASON CONTEST begins*** - 2007/06/01 07:54 Nevertheless, the contest is "just for fun" - it's NOT meant to be a SERIOUS test of possibly capping skill...though skill is involved & so may be a measure of luck.
And everyone is under the same requirements, me brightly included, and I almost never bet NFL preseason!!...So it will be even WORSE for me!...But it's all "just for fun"!!!
The requirement virtually eliminates the "gamesmanship" oportyunity of someone getting "lucky" early then siting on that lead...Luck may play a roll in the outcome, but that's part of the charm! Have fun!
