2014 NFL survivor pool for "unwanted" PJ posters

ed243421ed243421 Posts: 7,633
Lets start this up and see if it has legs

With all of the mystery box posters and mystery tubes going out, thought we could help people; "exchange" their "unwanted" posters for others by doing well in the pool, help people without a single PJ poster get 1, and bet on football

So you have a PJ poster you know you will never frame

Use it as an entry into this survivor football pool, 1 poster equals 1 entry, no limit on numbers of entries

Do well in the pool and you get to select 1 or several of other peoples "unwanted" posters

One persons trash is another persons treasure

If you do not do well in the pool, you send it to one of the "winners" at the end of the contest

And depending on how many posters get "donated" towards entry into the pool, we designate a certain number of those to get into the hands, and onto the walls, of people who for whatever reason, do not yet own a PJ poster

If you do not own a PJ poster and would like the chance to own one, just post in this thread "hi, I am a PJ poster virgin, be gentle"

First ones in will have the best chance as we do not know how many posters will be in the pool yet

Just an example, if we get 50 posters in pool, I could see 30 of those going to the winners, we would split those amongst the final 7 or so people in the pool with the longer you last, the more you get

And the remaining 20 would be split

10 to the first 10 "poster virgins" to post in thread, they do not even have to make selections in the pool

And 10 to the remaining "poster virgins" based on how well they do in the pool

If you claim to be a "poster virgin" please don't let us find an old post saying how you got a "kong" in your mystery tube

The honor system is in effect

As for the survivor pool, just pick a team that you think will lose in week 1 of the upcoming NFL season

Let's do a loser pool in honor of the "unwanted" posters

If your selected team does "lose" that week, you move onto the next week, and you cannot select that team again for the whole season

If you pick a team to lose, and they win, you are out for the season and will have to mail your entry/poster to one of the winners at the end of the contest


Those who are not "poster virgins" just post in thread the poster you have that will be your entry into pool

To be fair, I do think we need to set a limit on some of the "more unwanted" posters that will be allowed as entry into pool

We could probably create a list of about 5 to 10 posters, like that Vancouver man-sheep-pig thing, where we only allow the first 3 to post in thread as entry



What say you?

    In. Your creativity never ceases to amaze Eric -- anything to have fun with other PJ fans in a gambling sort of environment. (OK and I can think of a few other environments but this isn't a party...which is too bad!)

    hi, I am a PJ poster WHORE, but please still be gentle.

    (I actually went to the Vancouver man-bear-pig concert and so will always keep my poster...even though it is tragic. Because I am a PJ poster WHORE, I have more than I care to admit that I will never frame.)

    In, sounds fun and combines things I love: football, gambling, posters, stress, and disappointment.

    I would assume everyone needs to submit their "bad" poster before the first week kicks off?
