Horrible beat for anyone who took Under on GS/SAS...

Almost as bad as the last second 3 in G1 of MIL/BOS that turned MIL/Under into BOS/Over...

I think we all should start fading eachother haha. Pretty bad record overall.

That's hilarious..I'm thankful af for this contest. Love the NBA playoffs, was itching to get some action...didn't feel like dealing with offshore crap...fees etc.

Just so it's Full closure here ..... Irishcapper made a double post of picks, which has happened before, but not with a Change in Teams
He did contact me after the 2nd post. But in the past, in Other contests, we have always counted the First set of picks ( no editing )

We have used the timestamp to get picks in before tip off, as even though the 2nd set was put in at 7:05:04, we in the past allowed it to get in by 7:05:59

But like Hal was saying the other day, I didn't post a full set of Rules. There are some in the sign up thread, but not Full closure.

I would think it's more common sense that the first post of picks would be what counts.

If anyone else thinks I'm wrong on this grading, Speak up and I will change it.

I'm just trying to be fair to All

Common Rules and maybe something we already talked about

All plays need to be put in at the time of the First pick
Must be in by Tip-off
No editing
Max plays 65

Picks will be released once all players have posted or the Tip off of the last game
* there will be times when I'm not around, so there might be a delay

Here's my unofficial standings after Sunday's games, sorted by % instead of correct answers.

Prince Hal 56.75% (21-16)
betallsports 56.67% (17-13)
joebatters 56.25% (16-16)*3pt MAKE
Diesel00 52.00% (13-12)*3 pt MISS
Livin the Family Life! 46.88% (15-17)
dnf0027 44.44% (8-10)*3 pt MISS
cloverleaf 42.42% (14-19)
irishcapper 38.46% (10-16)
easy_money 37.04% (10-17)
HotshotGambler 35.48% (9-22)*3 pt MAKE

Please note the % are just total points/picks made. If someone made their 3 pter, their actual picks correct % would be lower than what is listed, but that's sort of irrelevant for the standings.

Again, these standings are unofficial.
