    normally yes but in this case was a legitimate question. gotcha, I actually didn't know all the different scoring. I didn't know we got half a point for the correct MVG for example. Yes it might be interesting to include - let's say the score is 80-60; someone guesses 75-65 and another guesses 86-65. 75-65 wins but 86-65 is a better guess in terms of point differential.

    Might be something to consider for the future (and not just because of my most recent pick).

    There's another side of that coin. Someone could pick 60-40 and be right on the margin, but not necessarily a better pick than 75-65.

    How dare you cointer with a logical argument. Good point, maybe some combo of margin and how close, but then we’re veering into algorithms and that’s no fun for you. I’ll just take the L and be glad we won :)

    I wanted to in the Mizz game. Clayton should have won it that game. He was robbed. :confused:
