kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted December 17, 2008 Here are two rule change suggestions: 1) On weeks where there will be Thursday games (or other non-traditional days like Saturdays), I would put up the thread early with only picks for those games. The spread for these early games will go up early in the week, such as late Monday/Tuesday. The remaining spreads will be posted Wednesday/Thursday. That will require two separate instances for you to post picks, but it will give you more time to send in the early game pick. By holding off on calling spreads for the Sunday games later in the week, the spreads posted will be more accurate than if I post them Monday/Tuesday, which is the reason I have held off on doing this. ****************************************** 2) If you are on a losing team and have no chance at the playoffs, I had an idea as to "phone in" your picks. For example, if you are 0-12, let me know via PM you wish to "phone in" the rest of the season. This way, if someone is having a bad year, the team he represents will still be competitive for the rest of the year. I would not announce publicly who has "phoned in" his picks. I would also ask you come up with a different formula to "phone in" your picks so someone doesn't catch on that you were picking all home teams for two consecutive weeks. You would also need TB scores as well. I know many of you still send in picks when your team's record is sub.-500, but I don't want to lose long-time participants because of a bad year and their mind moves elsewhere. And remember, even though you may go against someone that didn't submit picks for a Thursday game and TB score, this advantage may also go to a person who you are competing with for that final playoff spot. ****************************************** When you submit your picks this week, please let me know if you vote "yay" or "nay" on these two proposals. Saying "I don't care" or "Do whatever" counts as a "nay," as does not voting at all. We must have a majority of teams (17) agree with each proposal in order to make each one pass.
