-Everyone will be scored at the same time, and in the order I placed the games.
-First to 150 pts, wins a trophy from Kori.
-I'll accept no edits. If your post is edited, I'll cancel your entry.
-Because of the drama in the previous game day, once I close the logs, no more entries will be accepted.
I may close it seconds before the first match, or half a day before, entirely at my discretion.

WARNING!

I know some contestants are waiting for others to post first.
This is within the rules, though take into consideration that I can close the logs anytime I feel like it. I very much like this move of mine, let's so who'll blink first.

And also one question:

Say Nathan only scores 3 Points and someone in the hunt, Brazil forexample, scores 8 or more, would that make Brazil the winner since he'd have 152 points compared to Nathans 151?

Or is it really the first to reach the 150 mark to win it all? In this scenario Brazil or VBM would make the race if they scored 6 points earlier than Nathan would score 3.

Don't bother answering.
Should've read the Jan 19th thread before posting here. My bad and I think you made the right descision.

Spur_Fanatic
01-20-2012, 04:45 AM
As explained in the previous gameday, it will be the first to score 150 pts.
As I'll score all contestants at the same time (instead of waiting till last game), those in the top do have a chance to catch up with Nathan. But it's true that is highly unlikely he loses at this point. I'm fine either way. The guy led pretty much the entire round, so if he ends up winning it, kudos and trophy.



Or is it really the first to reach the 150 mark to win it all? In this scenario Brazil or VBM would make the race if they scored 6 points earlier than Nathan would score 3.


If this particular event happens at the exact time (remember, I'll score everyone at the same time, so can very much happen), I'll declare it a tie. Already planned on how to pick a winner then. So, for VBM and rayray, is kinda critical Nathan fails in some early picks.

Spur_Fanatic

I considered it. But if I wanted to score all games as they came and everyone at the same time, I would have a huge mess on when to account the bonus points exactly. So better out the bonuses after the first 6 games at least.

So except the first game, I don't see Portland loosing at Toronto at all, I picked the opposite of Nathan.

Go Atlanta, Washington (lol but they already upset one lately), Phx, Mil and Detroit ! :lol

I can see loosing on the Detroit one. So the idea is Nathan at 149 and I with 150 after Detroit game. There other games at the same time but I guess SF will consider, as an order, his list here. right?

SF this is the order the games are starting right?
