    Yes, just looking at your picks in the thread you should have had 8. It really doesn't make sense that you're short 2 points because you hit your 1, 3 & 4 pointer. I'll definitely have to check the spreadsheet tonight. Did you edit your picks at all?

    A lot of it is just random with what match-ups there are this week. Last week, there just happened to be a ton of small road favorites, which are really tough to pick! I'll do my best though! :devil:

    I know that's your goal, becasue it makes this particular picks thread much more fun to play. And no one ever zero's out... Lol. Not to be greedy but I have an idea I'm working on for a new yet different picks game, however I wouldn't like to manage all of that. The time you a RealtyGator put into these games is massive, respectively.


    Thanks for creating another, different game, to play.

    Well, yours should have been input Saturday morning, so that shouldn't be the issue. I'll just have to see what's going on when I get home...

    No worries Smoot. I don’t mess with it Sat morning for fear you’ve already got it input

    Yes. I moved Tennessee down to the 4 slot and moved Syracuse and Michigan to #2 and #3 respectively. I wasn’t feeling good about Tennessee for some reason.

    No. It was done well before you called for last call. All the time stamps are not right. When you say all the picks are in the time stamp says 5pm on Saturday. Conversations I’m having with Phatgator before games even started say 6 pm on Saturday. All throughout the thread you can see time discrepancy as most of us aren’t posting at 2-3 am. I think it’s off by 6-8 hours.

    The timestamps I see appear to be accurate. They jive w the time that the early games were decided. Perhaps your timezone is set out of whack? Your picks show as being edited at 8:36am Eastern on Saturday, obviously before the deadline.

    I thought I did it Friday night but I start work at 3-4 am on Sat. I could have done it early Sat morning. But I def remember having mine in before Smoot called for the missing guys. Maybe the mountain time zone screws with it. Mine shows I edited at 1236 pm on Saturday and all the time stamps never jive on what I see by 6-8 hours difference. I was in my chair and done when 10 am games started. It was only 2 points. I don’t want to create controversy or give anyone the impression I would cheat even on just a fun game. Not who I am.

    It was edited at 8:36, which is an hour after my Saturday morning post. The rules are that any changes made after my Saturday morning post need to be a new post (not edited). I will allow the change this time, and I'll reiterate the rule tonight when I post Week 12. But from here on out I will have to abide by the rules. If your changes would have caused you to decrease points, instead of increase points, you could have said nothing and you would have gotten more points than what you should have (not saying this was your intent at all).

    Also, if somehow you end up beating me by 1 or 2 points, I might revisit my decision on this one! :D:D:D

    Thanks Smoot. I didn’t realize it was even Saturday morning I revised. I thought I had done it Friday night. I try to make sure I have it set before then but wasn’t feeling great about Tennessee so I’m sure I was flip flopping. The time zone differences def comes into play. Sorry for the trouble
