was a tough week. Games changed a lot towards the ends of a lot. and definitely a bunch that most of us didn't see going certain ways. Lots of football to go

you should be able to start your own thread, but if you start a thread about that Service you tried last week, it will sent to Site Promotions Forum like they did last week.
Those threads aren't allowed anywhere else

Thanks

There was no service, they are my CFB plays. It's the same as posting what side you're on.

Even more interesting is I come on Today/Tonight and see I received a PM by ( name withheld ) that they are having problems getting their picks in, and give me
his picks in the PM.

Problem # 1, the PM was sent to me at 4:44pm Eastern ( past the Deadline )

Problem # 2, I'm off on Saturday's, and even though I will pop my head on the forum ( even on my ONLY day off ) I don't stay on all day and night like I do the other 6 days that I work.

Problem # 3, I have Nothing to do with the Entries/Picks/Contest while the Contest is going on. So if there is a Problem getting your picks in, It's Best to contact
JOH with your problems. Because I can't help you even if I was online, I have no access to the picks or the form that JOH sets up.

I am name withheld, lol. Had an issue getting my 2nd set in. Unfortunately I had to work today and had some issues entering my second set before the deadline. I tried to submit when I got home but it was after 4. I messaged both you and JOH, figured I would cover my bases. Was hoping I might be able to get 45 minutes of leeway, but rules are rules.

Problem is you can't change the rules once they've been established. That would undermine the very integrity of the contest, and that's NOT something anyone wants to do.

There is only one exception, if such a rule change received the unanimous consent from the participants. And I don't think it's even worth trying to get unanimous consent.

I'm making this point to try an explain why organizers have their hands tied.

4:01 PM EST on Saturday is late, the contestant receives zero points for the week. I think one person, BAS?, overcame a blank slate to finish in the money one year

Deadlines, Should never be an issue.

If you have a job, submit your plays a day or two early and there will never be any worries.

Set alarms, have a family member as a contingency for tech issues, etc.

Good Luck Everyone!!!

I totally missed the deadline on Week 1 and got an 0-5. Went 4-1 on posted (elsewhere) picks. Never bitched or asked for a reprieve. My bad. Period.

Any contest run with integrity needs hard rules. One minute late is too late.

Too be clear, I never "bitched" about my picks not being submitted. I simply asked the questions as I had a problem. I don't submit my plays early bc of injuries, line movements, etc., as suggested above. I do not ask my family members to contribute to my gambling habits. I asked the question because I made a mistake, I was simply told "no", I accepted the decision and moved on. I would have been stupid not to ask the question as I do not know if there is any precedent on this in the past. I generally don't monitor this board with such alacrity that I would be aware of such a situation. JOH told me he has not made an exception in 6 years of running the contest, I respect his decision, end of story. As long as that continues to be the policy going forward, I have no issues.

Just for good measure, I set my grandma up with the interwebs so she can be my proxy going forward......great suggestion! dbanana0-9
