View Full Version : Loser Pool! Who wants in?

I'll give you the rules and I have a separate screen name that will be holding onto the money. I have played this for the last few years and its pretty cool. You could walk out with a lot of cash at the end or be down $10.

It usually cost $10 to get in...but 10 Zonebucks is nothing, so I'm going to change it to 100 Zonebucks. I will keep track of the money in a separate account. The screen name will be BZLoserPool. Each week you have to pick ONLY one team to lose their game. You can not use the same team more than once and if your team wins, you are out. The pool keeps going until there is one person left. If 3 or less people are left and they ALL want to split the pot, they can. But if someone doesn't, the pool keeps going. IF they all fall out, the Zonebucks get split evenly between whoever is left.

Anyone interested? Reply here and donate 100 Zonebucks to BZLoserPool. I will start a new thread with that screen name each week to let you all know who is still in and what teams are playing that week. Remember, if you already used a team...like the Bungles, or whoever else...you CAN'T use them again.

It starts for week 1 and I will put up a thread with those games on August 31st.

I don't think it's fair.


It's obvious Mike would win a Loser pool!

Bite me! :D

Actually tho....I am pretty good at these. I got down to the final 3 last year and one of the guys would NOT split it. :mad: I was knocked out the next week. :(

Nope. I am just getting it ready. You all have 2 weeks to decide and send the money. The pool begins on Sunday August 31st...but you don't have to have your loser pick into me until Thursday September 4th at 12pm. That is the first day of the NFL season. I will post a thread for all of your picks on August 31st. :D

I am in but remember, all we have to do is pick :bigmike: to lose each week, and you'll go all the way.

How, exactly, does one "earn" ZBs? I've been in and around for over a year and I'm still po'.

You have 1,000. That's a good start. :D

You earn ZBs from each thread you create, each post you make, and also when you make a popular thread...you get zonebucks from the certain amount of replies. You can also double or increase your zonebucks in The Sports Bar with Fat Tony. :D

Woo hoo! 700 in the pot. Let's keep it growing. If the loser pool that I'm in can get a $600 pot...then we should be able to get at least 10,000! :$:

I currently have gotten Zonebucks from 10 people. The pot is 1100, but I can still add more to it and am also still looking for more people interested. Let me know if you want in. Thanks! :D

again....it's only 100 ZBs per entry and if you want...you can buy more than one entry. Just give me a different name to put it under.

I'll play the game too. :) Do we PM our loser team or post it in this thread? And, why can't I pick the same team each week to lose? I want to go with the Skins for an 0-16 season! Either that, or I'll pick the Hamilton Tigercats. They're already 0-9. :chuckle:

It's me Mikey. :D

I will be posting a thread each week with the list of people that are still alive and then you can post your pick there. It's not the same team, because if it was...it would take longer. :D

Valerie
08-27-2003, 10:44 AM
Well, give me my quarter. I think you owe me about $10 by now and I will collect it at the opener. :D :$:

Fine! If I can't pick the Skins every week, I'll have to live with that. I just hope they have a 0-16 record. BTW, do you want us to PM you our loser team or post it in this thread?

BZLoserPool
08-27-2003, 11:06 AM
No, the pick wont be on pm or in here. It will be in a separate thread that I will make on this Sunday. :D

Michael82
08-27-2003, 12:27 PM
anyone else? :) I am adding 1,000 ZBs to the pot...so it is now 2,200 if you win the whole thing. :D
