    Format suggestions?

    What did we do last year?

    Office pool junky has a playoff pool but it is kinda lame

    Pick winners each weekend or against spread, wins worth points and each weekend the point value for each win goes up

    Most points wins

    Or

    We could go old school and do it here with point spreads and make picks in order of how you "value" each pick

    Ex.

    4. Kc+3.5
    3. Pitt Even
    2. Gb -1.5
    1. Sea -3.5

    Your kc cover would be worth 4 points and so on...

    If u hit all 4 games, that's 10 points

    The next weekend the games values go up to

    8
    7
    6
    5

    And so on until the sb is worth 11 points

    Most points win

    Or any other suggestions?

    10 dollar entry??

    I could start new thread to possibly get more people

    I think last year we just sent a PM to Eric with our picks and the point value for each pick doubled for each round of the playoffs. I'd be cool with doing that again. I think we did $20 per person last year.

    This sounds fine to me too. Doesn't matter much to me, seems like I always suck with my picks during the playoffs anyway LOL

    Yeah, I like the idea of points (then doubling each week). I'm also good with a $20 entry.

    Whatever is easier but if the office pool thing sucks lets just do it here.

    In past playoff pools, did we weight each pick? It doesn't feel right that the Super Bowl pick would be worth more than going 4/4 this weekend.

    I'd suggest a similar format to the regular season; most right picks wins. We can do something with the over/unders to determine tie breakers (again, I think thats how we've done it before).

    Good points, Pat

    Is someone gonna play "PayPal banker"?

    Horos has been awesome to do so, but if he wants out, will someone step up or would we do old school snail mail?

    I personally dislike PayPal, so I'd rather snail mail.
    Another habit says it's in love with you
    Another habit says its long overdue
    Another habit like an unwanted friend
    I'm so happy with my righteous self
