20 so far. Nice start. Hope to get to at least 30 in 9 days. Dont forget to rank your picks by confidence level. The number is how much the pick is worth. So if you move that pick to 40 that means you are very confident and are risking 42 points.

@BlackPawnMartyr do we need to pick all the games at one time, or can we pick a few, and wait on some? The first game is on the 19th of Dec.

I believe, once a game starts that game is locked in place. So for games that have not been played you can change your pick or move them up and down in confidence level. But to be safe i would at least pick them all and rearrange them quickly in some sort of high, med, and low grouping of confidence level. Then go back and fine adjust when you have more time.

I don't think you can move any teams after the first game has kicked off. Considering it's a nationwide contest (along with the one here ...hell, register on both folks!) I can't see any way they'd allow you to change winners ... or more importantly assigned confidence rankings.

I've never played in one of these pools where you could change teams/winners/confidence points after day one.

@rick4bama There's two things I'v found I needed a printer for ... this game, and March Madness. This one screams for a "rough draft" to make sure you have all your "rankings" correct.

 

[rick4bama]

@TerryP Thanks I do use a "rough draft " even while we did our weekly I did one.

I think they were locked the first year I played with you guys. BUT I remember them not being locked last year.

 

[RhinoGuy]

I am terrible at these bowl game pickems.

 

[BlackPawnMartyr]

Well to be safe everyone should pretend like they will be locked. In the rules it discusses a "rolling lock" but it doesnt go into great detail. You can read them for yourself on the site.

 

[Max]

Weird. The "rolling lock" thing. I don't get it.

It's a confidence pool where the winner is the one with the most points, right? So, you pick a game and assign it 30 points. You lose. Then, you can assign another game the same 30? It seems like 30 lost points should be just that, 30 lost points.

 

[BlackPawnMartyr]

Yea it would be locked in at 30 points but you could move unplayed games above or below in slots that are not locked in. Im guessing.

 

[BlackPawnMartyr]

5 day warning, start making your picks and adjusting the confidence level.

 

[rick4bama]

Getting ready to do it now.

 

[rick4bama]

Ok may need some help here. The ranking the points trying but for some reason it will not move. I click on the button Move and it chance to Here I try to move it and nothing happen. So what am I doing wrong?

 

[BlackPawnMartyr]

Not sure. But i can tell you its not a click and drag function. You click move, then scroll up or down and click again on the spot you want to move it to. Hope that helps.

 

[rick4bama]

Yes I got it, you click it then you go to where you want to place the points. But if you place a point below what you just did it will move the other up one.

First Bowl games are on the 19th (Saturday). One of them is the Mormon Bowl between BYU and Utah. Pretty decent starter bowl.

It's called the Holy War. Get it right, noob.

As watered down as these bowls have become, I really like some of the matchups. Especially at the top. The 31st through the end of the playoffs are very stellar matchups (yeah, even ND v. OSU, I mean, at least one of them loses)
