How do I hide my picks?

No one can see them until the game (week) is settled.

 

[SoCalPatrick]

I've got my picks in and went the whole season this time around

Thank you friend!

So you can choose week 0 or 1 for Vandy in the week 1 slot and you pick does not have to be in until Sept 3? Will SEC championship be an option for me to select Bama? Making sure I am not confused and lose out before I even start.

 

[TerryP]

Aight guys ...

I had the pool management page open and dropped my glasses on my laptop touch pad. Not only did they somehow hit the delete button, but also hit the button confirming deletion. I have to rebuild week one this morning.

In the rebuild I'm not going to include Vandy and Hawaii to avoid confusion. We'll start with games on the 1st.

Will SEC Championship game be an option? That is when I and I suspect most of us would pick Bama.

Thank you!

 

[rick4bama]

@TerryP thanks for the rebuilt. But I see that Vandy will take out at least one picker.

 

[SnakeFan]

I really enjoyed this last year because I finally learned how to play

 

[Justneedme81]

Alright then!!!

 

[Bamabww]

That's better @TerryP , thanks for the update.

Two clarifying questions just to make sure I assumed we needed to save one team for the SEC championship game but just to be clear - Will the SEC championship game be included so we need to reserve one team for that game? If not that means one team does not have to be picked for the year correct? I have reserved Bama but did not want to do that if the SEC championship game is not going to be included.

14 teams, 14 weeks including the SECCG. It (CG teams) can't be added until decided which may be week 11, or week 13. Last year we knew it was UGA a couple of weeks before Bama claimed its spot in the west.

That is what I assumed. I picked the whole year just to see how things would look and will adjust as I go. Keeping Bama for the SECCG unless the wheels fall of somehow.

 

[TerryP]

Someone still has Elon picked for Week One. It's an SEC ONLY contest. You'll be out week one.

Weeks are not in chronological order and teams are not showing up in the Pick Distribution

I just got the reactions rebuilt and NOW you want me to look at the Pick 'Em?!?

We were aware there were going to be some things that needed to be repaired with the move. The Pickem was one of the big ones. I knew it would screw with the set up but with the circumstances considered I made the choice to move and then come back and repair. In other words, don't blame @doemasters or the developer. That was my call knowing what could happen.

Quite frankly, the Pick 'Em and the Sportsbook are not built to work within the XFC framework. The Sportsbook does, but it also doesn't have image files like Pickem. The developer has planned to have it compatible for XF 2.3.X—we're running 2.2.X right now—but he didn't anticipate the number of sites switching to XFC. When I spoke with him Tuesday night it was his goal to have a release available this weekend that'll work with XFC.

In retrospect, I suppose we should have considered the ineptitude we dealt with using our old host considering we had the same issue in December of '21. However, tell me something we could have done to know they were going to be that inept when we started having issues last week? (Rhetorical question there with a tinge of sarcasm.)

Just finished running that job ... all in order now.

teams are not showing up in the Pick Distribution

The team logos aren't appearing, picks are. At this point there is no FTP access to the cloud; it's being developed. When the update is released, I'll get team logos/helmets back in place using the Asset Uploader that's core in XFC...but Pick 'Em has to be updated before I can.

Until then, one by one, I'll set those back to a script abbreviation.
