Time to mix things up this season. New game, new rules. Each team will be given a point value based on their expected win probability (1 = strongest chance to win). For instance, here's the numbers for Preseason week 1:

Preseason Week 1:
Odyssey (2) vs Ho Chi Mean (4)
4th Street (4) vs Palookas (2)
Comets (3) vs STALINGRAD (3)
Sunami (5) vs Chaos (1)
Insanity (2) vs DotBuilders (4)
HAMMER (3) vs Gofers (3)

Simple game, each week you pick three teams that you think will win their game (straight up, no point spreads). You get the points assigned for each winner you pick. No penalty for picking a loser in your three picks, just no points from that team.

So, play it safe and get those 1s or take a gamble to hit on the bigger points? Give it a shot during the preseason while I iron out the point values I want to assign. We will reset at 0 to start the regular season.

Participants:
Theo Wizzago - Palookas, Chaos, Odyssey - 4
Kenshinzen - Odyssey, Insanity, War Hammer - 7
jmarter - 4th Street, STALINGRAD, HAMMER - 3
BigRatUno - Odyssey, Palookas, Insanity - 6
Novus - Palookas, Chaos, Odyssey - 4
PLAYMAKERS - Comets palookas odyssey - 7
ND Roughneck - Comets Hammer, Palookas - 8

ND was our Week 1 winner. Let's try this one more time before I change up the points, but note that I put in a bonus play - a little variation on the old Pick 6.

The Rules:
Simple game, each week you pick three teams that you think will win their game (straight up, no point spreads). You get the points assigned for each winner you pick. No penalty for picking a loser in your three picks, just no points from that team.

Bonus play - You can instead pick winners for all 6 games if you would like. So, more points to be had, but if you miss any winner you get 0 points for the week.

So, play it safe and get those 1s or take a gamble to hit on the bigger points? Give it a shot during the preseason while I iron out the point values I want to assign. We will reset at 0 to start the regular season.

Preseason Week 2:
Ho Chi Mean (4) vs 4th Street (2)
Gofers (4) vs Insanity (2)
Palookas (2) vs Odyssey (4)
Comets (1) vs Chaos (5)
STALINGRAD (1) vs Sunami (5)
DotBuilders (5) vs HAMMER (1)

Participants:
ND Roughneck - 8
Kenshinzen - 7 - Insanity, 4th Street, Odyssey
PLAYMAKERS - 7
BigRatUno - 6
Theo Wizzago - 4 - Comets, Stalingrad, Hammer
Novus - 4
jmarter - 3
