Re: Sabres @ Senators Prediction Contest 25 Jan 11

how do you play this game and what are the points worth?

Up until the scheduled time of each game you are allowed to make your pick.

1) Pick either the Sabres or opposing team to win
2) Guess the final score

Whoever correctly guesses the correct winner AND the correct score head on receives 2 points.

If no one guesses it exactly, then whoever is within 1. If not 1, then within 2 goals of the final score get 1 point.

I'm not sure how the half points work. But it's pretty easy to understand.

Re: Sabres @ Senators Prediction Contest 25 Jan 11

the half point is if you guess the correct team winning in OT, you get a half point. Your guess has to be a one goal differential...

That's dumb.

Why not guess OT every single time then?

Go ahead and see where it get's you.

Re: Sabres @ Senators Prediction Contest 25 Jan 11

Then I think that if you call OT and it ends say 3-2 in regulation, you lose a half point.

Because you would have to make every game a one goal differential.

Re: Sabres @ Senators Prediction Contest 25 Jan 11

yeah, that overtime rule is stupid, it should be taken out

NOW there is a stupid rule.

[SabreEleven]

Re: Sabres @ Senators Prediction Contest 25 Jan 11

Because you would have to make every game a one goal differential.

and then you are 50/50 on who wins just for a .5 point.
