Degenerate gambling football league - season 8

njnancy

I never got my picks in when I was late.  Lucky two degenerates.

The Juggler

RULES ARE RULES!

F Me In The Brain

Was that a league rule?  I don't recall it being so.  Think it is whacked not to be able to pick all of the late games if you miss the 10 AM deadline.  Bookie never turns that away...wish they did!  lol

The wording the website use in setting up a league is kinda vague 

I also screwed up the poster survivor setup involving how many strikes one gets

i think we should be able to pick the late games if you miss the early 1pm games

that was my intention when setting this up

your selection is limited, you may not even get 6 games, and there is no advantage in seeing who everyone else picked when the website posts it at 1pm since you can't select those games anyways 


Nancy is the only one I can think of who has had trouble getting picks in on time in the past

and of the few times she missed, I can't recall if she posted here before 4pm asking for the late games

i would assume we would accommodate 

nothing cutthroat here, just for fun

F Me In The Brain

I won Thursday and lost all 4 yesterday.  Roller coaster continues -- at least I can try to get one back tonight.

The Juggler

I was only kidding

F Me In The Brain

Let them play!  Let them play!

YOU ARE misunderstood.

njnancy

We won't have a 6 for 6 this week so we carry over to next week. 

I don't know if I posted here or not about 4:00 or Monday games & doesn't matter - can't change it now. Good to know if I'm late, but I've been on time so far this year. 

And Giants won. 

njnancy

Not a very active year here!! I thought someone would have posted Week 6 standings while I had a PTSD setback. 

But since there's nothing....

Congratulations to Week 6 Winners with 4 picks each -

Nancy, gaining on the leaders!

ed243421

Thanks, Nancy!

Horos

Interesting now we have real time updates.

Degeneratefk

It would figure that I would finally hit 6 for 6 the week after someone else hits it.  And have to share it with someone else. Lol. #degenerateatheart.

F Me In The Brain

Congrats, 6-6 is still an accomplishment, even without the larger payout.
Wow, E can go 12-12 over last 2 weeks with KC win tonight.  Hope you were playing with your bookie.
Another 3-3 for me, crap!

New rule:

bankers should not have to send out any payment under $10

example: $10 pot split by 2 or more 
$20 pot split by 3 or more
and so on

we can keep track if anyone's split pots over the entire season add up to more than $10, or if anyone who had split pots under $10 during the season comes in the money at end of season

in that case, banker would pay that out at end

but they should keep the small change for their service

yes/no?

To the pit of despair!

Banker is a volunteer position. They shouldn't keep anything. It's just as easy to send $5 as $50. I think if you want to pay for their service make the buy in $41 next year. 

Degeneratefk

I don't care how it's paid out. But tend to agree with horos. It doesn't matter how much money is sent out. If it's easier for the banker to send out $5 at the end of the year, I'm fine with that. 

I've been in this league for 4 of 5 years and I think this is the first time I've seen 2 (possibly 3) 6 for 6. We've gone full seasons without that being accomplished. 

To me, this is like hitting a beautiful drive where you get yourself with 160 yards from the pin and fuck up the second shot! I am pretty much assured that I'll get a 2 next week. Lol
