Week 15 was brutal for sure, but Week 16 was hardly any kinder to the Contest group again. I will share the numbers again this week in the same categories: overall group (all of our picks combined) and top ten (the top ten points leader's picks combined) in terms of our "locks" and all four weekly picks combined.

Locks (Entire Group): 14~24 (37%)
Locks (the Top Ten): 3~7 (30%)

All 4 Picks (Entire Group): 60~92 (39%)
All 4 Picks (the Top Ten): 12~28 (30%)

So now both Week 15 and Week 16 have chewed us up and spit us out as a group. And the number of us scoring 4 points or better dwindled, with congrats going out to those that scored 4 points: Kreitmaster, OAKAS and laup. And a very special congrats goes out to 8ate for dealing the only 5 point hand of Week 16. WTG 8ate!

Any names that appear in RED on the leaderboard below are names that did not post any plays in Week 16. I eliminated some names from the leaderboard due to inactivity. THIS IS THE FINAL WEEK OF THE CONTEST.

<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->All bets need to be in before Kickoff, and once a bet is in it is locked and CAN NOT be changed for whatever reason. You MUST also INDICATE which bet is your Lock Of The Week. If it is not indicated than you will not have a Chance at the bonus point for any game.

QUICK REVIEW OF THE RULES


Every week I will be releasing a Point Spread and Total for each game. After that people have to make their picks based on the Numbers I give, No Buying Points, No First Half Spreads, No Teasers. All Spreads must be using the numbers that I give. The Number I will put up will be the most common spread across the board. The Rules are as simple as this, you need to Pick 4 Games. 3 Bets are all normal Bets but 1 Bet has to be your LOCK OF THE WEEK. The way I will be scoring this year is this, I will be using a point system Each Normal Bet is worth 1 point if you get it right, however the Lock Of The Week is worth 2 points. So the maximum number of points you can get throught out the week is 5 Points. You can use any combinations of Totals or Spreads based on whatever bets you think are the strongest.

1 Major Rule is this:
You are NOT allowed to switch your pick once you've made it. Even if you want to change it 1 minute later, so make sure you know what you are taking. This prevents people from changing their picks for strategy purposes or for injury purposes.

Another thing is if when you make the pick, you choose a team, but the wrong spread then your pick will Be the Team you picked, and the spread that I have given.

For Example:

Miami at Dallas -12

You type Dallas +12

Or you type Dallas -13

In both situations You are going to end up taking Dallas at -12.


Wilheim You think I could get a sticky for this thread, Please and Thank You...

So I assume that if I ( or who ever wins the contest) takes the crown, that Mac or nobody else is going to give up the 5 bills we signed up to fight for? It is just bragging rights at this point in time?

I feel that grinding it out 17 weeks and winning ( who ever wins) is not luck. You could get lucky a few weeks here and there, but grinding it out for a full NFL season pushes the cream of the crop to the top. I tip my hat to all the peopl at the top of the list because if this contest was ran again next year, I think you guys would be up there again.

GL and Midman2161, you control your own destiny to win it all.

So does this mean the contest is officially for no money? Mac dipped out on his 5 bill pot? He just dangled a carrot on a stick in front of us donkeys?

I am tied for 2nd place and trying to win this piece. I just want that extra financial motivation. Midman2161 don't fuck up because you have some quality cappers right there behind you. I am guessing that we will NOT have 1 sole winner, but 2 or more cappers tied for the crown. Can I bet on who wins the bests?

Yeah, pretty much. We may never really know what really happened to Mac, but in either case he left this contest and also the one-on-one $1,000 contest he had with ATLSLIM hanging out to dry.

I enjoy it when people organize shit like this. I enjoy the competition, seeing everyone's picks, seeing the results updated, etc. So I thought that if others felt the same way, then it would be worth it to continue the contest just for competitive reasons (whether or not MAC ever came back and whether or not anyone else picked up the tab).

Here's something that I originally posted the very first week I was attempting to resume the contest:

Calling All Handicappers!!! Official Week 12 Thread Plus Updated Results!!!

<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->Okay.....let's see if we can get this contest back on track. Whether or not Mac is done with this contest, I don't see any reason why it should not continue. If Mac returns, then he can decide if he wants to include the Week 12 results from this thread into the overall contest or not (which he should).

And whether or not there is actually a prize awarded for the winner, I would have to think that the potential bragging rights for the winner and those that finish near the top are equal or greater to the cash prize. And even if you disagree, I think this contest is worth continuing just for competitive reasons alone and the simple desire to see who will eventually win.

Here's potentially some more insight in a post from Woody during that time-frame:

I feel for Atslim because they had a $1000 bet. It seemed like Mac was trying to recruit guys from here to start a site of his own to eventually charge money and it backfired on him.

Yeah SDS23- Thanks for keeping this running. I know it takes time and there are probably more exciting things that you'd be doing than counting our bets.

I just want to win that crown as the winner of the 2008 contest. I wish a couple of those tools ( no names mentioned) who run their mouths would join the contest to see that they aren't half as good as they think they are.

Lastly, although it probably does matter as much (due to there not being any financial incentive or prize) we could always devise some sort of a tie-breaker if one was desired. We could come up with any sort of tie-breaker to determine a true winner in Week 17, or we could go as far as extending this contest to involve the playoffs and Super Bowl. I am willing to do whatever the mass majority and, specifically the current leaders of the contest want to do (if anything).

You're quite welcome. Maintaining this was not very difficult as soon as I got it formatted on spreadsheets. I'd run one again next year too if there was interest. But it would be even better to find someone willing to put up a prize.

Closure is paramount, I totally agree. And who knows, perhaps next season we can get a bigger contest going and encourage more involvement so that lessons can be taught (if needed ~ LOL).

BOL this week Goldy!

Yeah I don't think Mac ever addressed that. Correct me if I am wrong, but he wanted to crown one regular season champ 500 bucks ( with no tie breaker), and he wanted the top 10 cappers to go to the playoffs to fight it out for another 500 bucks.

With a number of guys tied for 2nd place, there is a good shot first place will be shared by at least 2 guys ( unless the 1st place guy runs the table).

If you want my 2 cents, I don't think the regular season championship should be settled in the playoffs, that is a totally different season. Maybe points can some how be awarded to who has the best differential in their games, or maybe we can pick extra games used only in the event of a tie, or maybe we can just have " co-champions" or maybe we can all pick the SNF or MNF game or total or something.

I like the contest because you have one 2 unit bet, and the rest of the bets are even. In real life, I do like to have big bets and small bets ( for example I went 5 units on my best bet last week but this contest is always fun.

Yeah I don't think Mac ever addressed that. Correct me if I am wrong, but he wanted to crown one regular season champ 500 bucks ( with no tie breaker), and he wanted the top 10 cappers to go to the playoffs to fight it out for another 500 bucks.

With a number of guys tied for 2nd place, there is a good shot first place will be shared by at least 2 guys ( unless the 1st place guy runs the table).

If you want my 2 cents, I don't think the regular season championship should be settled in the playoffs, that is a totally different season. Maybe points can some how be awarded to who has the best differential in their games, or maybe we can pick extra games used only in the event of a tie, or maybe we can just have " co-champions" or maybe we can all pick the SNF or MNF game or total or something.

I totally agree that the playoffs are a distinctly different animal as compared to the regular season. And I am open to any and all ideas for including a tie-breaker for Week 17.

And you are correct in assuming that MAC never addressed a potential tie at the end of the regular season. Here's what I could find in his original Week 1 thread:

Calling all Handicappers!!! OFFICIAL WEEK 1 THREAD!!!

<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->The Rewards for this:
The winner of the Regular Season Will receive $500 from me.
However this is the best part of this competition, the Top 10 Handicappers will be advancing to the Playoffs next year. No Points will be carried over, but the Top 10 will be advancing to the Playoffs, where we will have a brand new season. The Winner of the Playoffs will then win an additional $500 from me.

I will be competing in this as well, but only for competitive purposes. If I happen to win any stage of this, 2nd place will then win the prize amount.
