Posted: 07/23/20 8:45 pm ::: Picking the Winners |
Reply |
|
It is late to start this up, but if people are interested in a contest to pick winners of each WNBA game, I will compile the results.
There are 44 days of play. Picks for each days games must be in by Midnight pacific time of the day before. (For opening day, picks can be put in until 9am Saturday) You can enter your picks daily or weekly.
RULES
Pick the games for each day and post on this thread by 1 AM Pacific time on the day of the game. (Essentially by the end of the previous day). Picks can be entered each day or for multiple days at a time.
In order to allow players to not be unduly penalized for missing a day, the top 40 days (out of 44) will be used in the final scoring (maximum 120 points).
For day 1 picks can be made prior to the start of a game. Going forward I will allow each player to be late 2 times during the season, but picks must be in at least 30 minutes before the start of the first game of the day.
I will attempt to post results on Monday each week. The game is for the regular season only. Remember this game is for fun. Clean trash talk is allowed but the idea is to make the season be more enjoyable, not cutthroat.

Because of the late start the game will include the best 40 days for each player. that will allow each player to miss 4 days. Of course if you pick all 44 days you can drop your 4 worst days.
