BillsZone ran a game just like this last year and BrianH competed.

[honey]

Last year's pickem was totally FUN! :up:

[DIHARD2]

OneBilzFan, unless the game was trademark or patent I don't believe its stealing anything and using your logic, every organized game any of us has played since childhood, that was not patented or trademarked would have been a rip off. This is a foolish statement in my book. Every board on the Internet has something that worked for another board incorporated into it or was borrow from some other board. That's called creating a better mousetrap.

I enjoyed this game and TypeO thanks for starting it up again. I missed four or five games last year and I finished pretty high up in the game, so I plan on giving everybody a run for their money LOL

GO!!!...BUFFALO!!!...

[DIHARD2]

Any idea when the spot is gone to be posted?

GOOooooo!!!...BUFFALOOOOooooo!!!!!.....

[northernbillfan]

:wave: I'm in!

[Mr. Miyagi]

Still no odds? Games start in 2 days!!

[Typ0]

sorry guys the spreads are in I had some things come up.

[Sabre Ally]

It's the nature of our society, Typ0...people just don't have patience anymore.

[WG]

I hope I didn't jinx us, I took the Bills.

:scared:

[Throne Logic]

Is it supposed to display picks on the first page where it says "[User]'s Picks for Week 1"?

Or am I all set if I've entered and UPDATED each individual game on the next page?

[Valerie]

I'm in and my picks have been made. :) I think I got them all right! :up:

[EM Bills Fan 80]

Do point spreads matter or is just straight up wins/losses.

Yes it displays the picks in the right hand column of that page. You're picks are in the database I checked to make sure. Let me know if you can't see them there may be a bug.

[Typ0]

Tonights game will be a freebie so we can keep the game open until Sunday.

[Typ0]

Make sure you pick the winning team I don't want to hear any whining later :snicker:

[Halbert]

Thanks for putting it up. But can one of you programming geeks work on that interface? How about one button that updates the entire page? I'd do it but I'm not a geek anymore. I'm a dork.

[EM Bills Fan 80]

I click on it and it sends me to a page about the URL not being found

[Typ0]

EM you need to log into that main page first and then click on the link. Use your username and password from the boards.

The first week of the pickem is a wash anyway I forgot to lock the picks up.

[Typ0]

The second week is up. Sorry everyone but the first week did not get scored because the picks did not get locked...some people could have changed their picks and that would not be fair to others. So go ahead and have fun *****ing me out :D.

[BillsFever]

It's not loading for me.

[Typ0]

Make sure you are logged into the main page and then click the link BillsFever.

Hey Honey! It's Herdwatcher. How you been doing since last week?! I'm working today from 5am to 9:30am I could stay until 1:30pm but with the game on at 10am out here. I told my boss it's the best I can do!

I'm doing :fabulous:! I'm probably going to miss at least part of the game today, though, because I have to take the boys school shopping. :( I promised them I would, so can't get out of it. BUT, Frank's going to tape the game for me! :up: (What is up with that hubby? I really think he might be starting to like the Bills! :D )

[The_Philster]

BTW, Typ0...don't forget to lock the picks this week ;)

[Typ0]

Picks are scored for last week and this week is up. Have fun :D

[kardshark19]

Just want to make sure...we don't have to change from BYE to the team name for teams that have a BYE week, do we? I noticed that the drop-down box lists BYE and the name. Don't want to get screwed by some trick question :doh:

[TigerJ]

I'm ready for another very average performance.

There was a scoring error found on last weeks games. It has been corrected and the standings are up to date.

Well, that stinks! Now I'm not #1 anymore. :(

[shelby]

Nor am i tied for second. Should have known i'm just a :angry:ing loser.
:sadwalk:

[Sabre Ally]

Aw, shut up. You're both ahead of me. :lmao:

[DIHARD2]

There is something wrong with my score this week, it has me losing games that I won and winning games I lost. It scared me I almost had a heart attack until I realized there was a glitch. Hopefully sometime today it'll be fixed and I get what my score should be, between both weeks I should be 190 I got 130 this week.

GOOooooo!!!...BUFFALOOOOooooo!!!!!.....

[DIHARD2]

There are a few games where there is no spot that is going to be hard to call including the Bills game. I'm not touching my picks anymore I did that the first week and if I would've kept what I originally picked I would've done better than I did. I'm one of those who benefited from TypeOs error.

GOOooooo!!!...BUFFALOOOOooooo!!!!!.....

I almost forgot and a big THANK YOU TypO

[BillsFever]

I kicked ass this week :up:

[honey]

I think I'm #1 again. ;)

[DIHARD2]

Bump

[shelby]

i'm tied with the Pukester.:eek:

[Typ0]

Everyone was credited with the two games on thanksgiving. Your pick history will reflect you picked the games properly even if you did not. Things are still close folks looks like it's going to come down to the wire.

[Sabre Ally]

I picked the Thanksgiving games correctly...since I waited until Saturday to pick them. :snicker:

[timfromjersey]

Typo, how the heck can you have the week 15 Broncos vs Browns game as a 0 spread straight up pick-em? The line in the paper is 10 1/2 pts favoring the Broncos.

There have been waaaaaay to many 0 spreads this year.

One week left peeps. Looks like Mike90210 has it locked up...which is good for the zone due to the time value of money...because we don't have to mail out his prizes for at least six months :snicker:

Congrats Mike!
