Exclamation Clarifying the winners and payments

I just wanted to clarify a few small items so the people that are in the running for the pool are understanding the winners.
  • The winners will be paid after the SuperBowl is over
  • The playoffs will be used as a tiebreaker (if needed)
  • If there is a tie for first, then the $ 1000 will be split up between the first place finishers
  • If the season ends in a 3 way tie( can be any numer of people), then those 3 members will be moved on to the tie breaker and the winner gets the top prize, second gets second, and so on
  • Example: Mike, Jay, and Ssigman all get 150 wins for regular season
  • Playoffs finish like this:
Jay
Ssig
Mike
  • Jay gets the top prize, Ssig gets second and I get third (example)
If anyone has any questions or does not understand this then please ask. If you think that it is not fair well sorry, i cannot afford to pay everyone $ 1000


Mike

Like how many people are in the running? Just a few maybe.
Also misleading statement like " I can't afford to pay everyone $1000" doesn't help.

well look here

right now there are two people tied for first:

Bamanation & lobsmob with 139 total wins each!

This is how it would work.
IF they ended the regular season in a tie, then the playoffs would be used as a tie breaker.

So if the playoffs are over and lobsmob gets 160 wins and Bamanation gets 159 wins, then lobsmob would win the $ 1000.00 and bamanation would get second $ 250 and then (currently in 3rd) skiwood would get the $ 100.00.

I made that statement so everyone would get that I cannot afford to pay out if this happens:

If there is a 4 way tie, each winner gets $ 1000.00. I just do not have $ 4000.00 to give out, I hope you find that fair


Hopefully ,and like last year, we wont have to worry about a tie. In the last week Ssigman pulled it out of his A$$ and won it outright. That is what I am hoping for!

ssigman is just really nicessigman is just really nicessigman is just really nicessigman is just really nice
unfortunately this year....my talents have let me down...most likely because money was involved and god forbid i win any...i think as last year's winner..i should get $1000 as part as my duties of passing the crown off to this year's winner
