Thanks J-man

Think I'll wait for a football challenge. Good luck with the event!

FunkSoulBrother · Sep 3, 2003

what is the rule on piggbacking/fading your opponents picks?

I liked the suggestion that if one person plays a side or total then it is off limits for their opponent.

randyrohm · Sep 3, 2003

I agree with FSB. This would remove any shadow of a doubt about a pick and there are plenty of games to choose so that shouldn't be a problem. I will Neteller the funds to Jake today.

Journeyman · Sep 3, 2003

we can go with that rule guys, it appears everyone is fine with it,if the same play is selected by both opponents the one posting first gets the selection the other is voided! So we don t have to email which is all the btter from my stand point too,lol.

We still need 8 players! This is a great opportunity to make some money as 25% of the field cashes, and can win as much as 2 dimes!

randyrohm · Sep 3, 2003

I just posted up, so I am good to go.

FunkSoulBrother · Sep 3, 2003

I am also posted up and ready to go.

Journeyman · Sep 3, 2003

I just realized something, with the new format I can get in s well...Is there any reason I can`t be in since we are posting all plays in the contest thread?

BowlMeOne · Sep 3, 2003

I would think that Sportbet would prefer all new players, as this is a marketing tool to get new customers. If there is a need for a player by end of week I will play of course, but I'll wait to see if we can get Sportbet some new customers.

Journeyman can get in and should get in! This new format will keep people from worrying about other players fading their picks and will keep them from sending emails to you.

Get in Journey, we need at least 1 easy first round match!

FunkSoulBrother · Sep 3, 2003

I'd love to see you in the mix, Journey!

TomorrowsNewspaper+ · Sep 3, 2003

im in. Post up tomorrow.

toohot4u · Sep 3, 2003

J-man, since this is a contest by the players for the players, I suggest that we include NFL football as well. If the majority of the people that are in it want to include it, we should. If the majority want to exclude it, than no problem. But we should let the players vote on it and decide.

TheGeneral+ · Sep 4, 2003

Thanks again Jman & Sportbet.

smoothie · Sep 4, 2003

How many people are in?

I'd be interested in it again, although I got my ass tossed in the 1st round.

Since there are so many football contests going on, I'd prefer that this is baseball only.

Thanks.

PO69 · Sep 4, 2003

Ok is anyone getting in this thing???

Journeyman · Sep 5, 2003

We have about 10-12 guys that have expressed serious ninterest so far...We need some help getting the word out on this one....Baseball has taken a back seat but we shouldn`t let an opportunity like this slip by!!

Guest · Sep 5, 2003

Off the top of my head, I can think of about 10 guys who have already posted up for the contest. BASEBALL ONLY. Jman and I will get together today and post an updated list.
