IMPORTANT CHANGES TO PICK’EM – READ THEM!
From here on out I will be offering “Double Up to Catch UP”. It’s quite simple, you can elect to play STANDARD, 2 points for Weekday Games and 5 Points for Weekend Series or elect to DOUBLE UP, if you select DOUBLE UP, you will be awarded 4 points for correctly predicting the Weekday Games and 10 points for correctly predicting the Weekend Series. However, if you DOUBLE UP and are INCORRECT in your prediction, you will receive -2 points for Weekday Games and -5 for Weekend Series. REPEAT, IF YOU DOUBLE UP AND ARE INCORRECT, YOU RECEIVE NEGATIVE POINTS!
If you do not specify DOUBLE UP in your post, I will assume you want STANDARD PLAY.
Its not to late to start playing Pick'em, feel free to jump in and make your prediction........you do not have to play every week.
All other Rules apply as published, subject to change…..
IMPORTANT, weekday Pick'em games are HANDICAPPED! PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE LINE. It will not move once set...
This thread is for entertainment purposes, NO GAMBLING ALLOWED!
The line has been set, the Vols are -3.5 against the Buccaneers on Wednesday evening at beautiful Smokies Stadium in Kodak Tennessee.
Pick up 2 points with Standard Play or Play "Double Up" and pick up 4 points. Simply Reply WIN or LOSE and let me know if you want to Double Up your points
All picks must be posted by 1st pitch Wednesday.
On 4/11 we visited ETSU and were handed a defeat by the score of 10-2.
Good Luck.......
Rules are simple and may change without notice:
1. Simply pick how the Vols will fair each weekend in SEC play
2. Reply with Sweep, 2-1, 1-2 or Swept
3. At the end of the SEC season a winner will be selected by their correct predictions and awarded a special prize on behalf of OldTimer and not to exceed $10,000 in value
4. All selections for the weekend must be submitted by the 1st pitch of the 1st Game, typically Friday however we do have a few Thursday games, so pay attention to the schedule
5. You do not have to play every weekend, total points won will win
6. 5 Points are awarded if you are correct in the outcome of games won and or lost. Point system may be changed at my discretion at any time.
7. Rainouts are the wildcard, for instance if you reply Sweep and UT wins Game 1, and the next 2 are rained out, its a sweep....if you say 2-1 and only 2 games are played, you get nothing. Pay attention to the weather!! It may be a deciding factor...
8. More rules may be added at my discretion
9. No wagering
10. Disputes will be handled by a 3 person panel: Me, Myself and I.
Rule change #1, if you pick the Vols to win the series 2-1, and the Vols get HOT and take the series with a 3- game sweep, you get 2 points. If you predicted the sweep you still get 5. Hey, we all love the sweep!
Also, if there is an EDIT after the game starts on your post, your prediction doesn't count....
