I've got no issues with it, just need someone to shoot me a PM when its done with a list of who gets points and how many.

 

[xpuctaqpGT]

I'm in!

 

[UtahUte]

I’m in to, I didn’t see my name on the list!

[Blackshirts BLVD]

I'm in, sounds fun. When is the cut off, beginning of the week? night before? day of as long as the game hasn't started?

Also, it says that if you pick a loser that wins, you lose ten points... for winning is it just one point per game or are points issued based on how much they "suck". Like 1 point for a team losing by 1-10 points, 2 points for 11-20, so on?

Just curious lol. Either way, I'm still in.

So let's say Alabama goes and beats Tennessee by 30 and you picked Tennessee to suck. That's a positive 30 points. If Tennessee goes and wins, you lose 10 points.

Picks are open from the Monday of the new week (or whenever the schedule gets posted) until before the game. So if you forget before the noon EST games start, there's still other games to pick from.. just less

 

[963BUSC]

Back in this year.

[BTHOtu]

Where the other pickems?

Sounds interesting. I'm in.

@bamabear82 be like:

@bamabear82 be like:

I had to make it something within a small realm of possibility without giving up an easy pick for everyone else

 

[jwolt92]

So this year there will be a payout. $1000 for first place, $500 for second, and $250 for third. Fordman has already approved some vCash payouts so I'll go with that

Is this for the entire season or weekly? a weekly payout would maybe keep more people in for the whole season, imo.
On a weekly deal maybe 500-300-200 and the amt you posted is for the season. .... just wondering

Welcome one, welcome all. Many of you are already familiar with the game, but those of you who aren't, fasten your seatbelts.

The first two years of the you suck pick'em have been a smashing success. Year 2 more so than year 1 because of my trusty side kick @cwerph (many MANY thanks to him).

As August rolls around I want to gauge the interest again this year from those who want to have some fun at the expense of others. (somebody get "the list" in here)

For those of you who have played before and maybe forgot the rules and those of you who have never played before, here they are.

You must pick the team that will lose by the greatest amount every week.. but with some stipulations:

1. You MUST pick 3 games every week
1a. One game must be a P5 vs. P5
1b. One game must be a G5 vs. G5
1c. One game can be any EXCLUDING picking an FCS school as a loser (you can pick an FCS as a winner)
2. You can only pick a team to "suck" or lose twice a year (can't pick on Kansas and Illinois every week)
3. If you pick a team to suck, and they win.. you lose ten points
4. BYU and Notre Dame are the only Indy's that count as P5s.
4a. Army and UMass are G5s
5. Picks must be submitted via PM to me. I will input the matchup onto the spreadsheet, picks will be confirmed by myself.
6. Regular season will have one champion, bowl season another.
6a. If someone knows a way we can get a VCash prize to each winner, 2nd place, and 3rd place.. that would be wonderful

If you're back in for year 3 or want to join and never played before.. please reply here. @cwerph and myself will be monitoring this to get a running list of who has joined

***Please.. if you are going to join, be in for the long haul. I'm tired of people joining and then doing weeks 1-3 and then quitting. It's all just for fun, but extra work for us isn't fun if you join and quit***

Welcome back and.. you suck

jwolt, I'm fairly new here but this sounds like fun so please count me in. Thanks!
