This season we will have an Added Bonus ... similar to the Real Super Contest we will have a $1,000 Mini Contest
This will go for the Last 3 Weeks of the Regular season.

* For This Mini Contest, You Must be Signed Up and PAID by July 31st 2017

** Money for the Mini Contest is coming from a Outside Source with NO Strings Attached

NFL Contest will again be a $200 NON REFUNDABLE ENTRY FEE

CFB Contest will again be a $100 NON REFUNDABLE ENTRY FEE

*** ALL POSTERS that Enter either or Both Contests ... MUST .... MUST .... have at least 50 POSTS by the time the CFB or NFL Season Starts !
> in the past we have let it go, But NOT this time.
>> We Believe this isn't fair to the everyday regular RX Poster, that someone out of the blue comes in, makes like 2-3 posts
and only shows up to make their Picks.
* This isn't a hard thing to do ... just to make a few Posts on a forum

Financial transactions between posters......

Please proceed with extreme caution and operate at your own risk when dealing with other Rx posters privately, especially in financial matters. The Rx.com does not endorse any posters that solicit other posters for loans or transfers, or wagering events between yourselves and cannot vouch for any posters that attempt to procure loans, funds for private contests, funds for private wagers or transfers from other posters for any reason anywhere on this site.

Financial transactions between posters are extremely risky and The Rx. advises the use of the most serious caution before making any kind of financial transaction with another poster. The Rx.com itself cannot be held responsible when posters fail trying to recover funds loaned, transferred or wagered with or to other posters under any circumstances.

Unless you personally know a poster or one is vouched for you by someone you highly trust you should be very hesitent to conduct unsecured financial business with posters that you meet on this any other forum.

I cannot over emphasize how dangerous it is to bet or loan or transfer money with or to complete stangers and expect to be paid in the end. I am not saying all posters are dishonest but utmost caution needs to be practiced whenever posters deal with each others privately, especially in regards to financial matters. The Rx.com cannot help mediate disputed wagers, contests or debts between private parties..

Caveat Emptor - let the buyer beware..

Thank you, The RX Mod Team

As I say every year, the deadline to enter plays should be Saturday morning not Friday night. There's zero reason to have them submitted by Friday evening. Love the contest but that rule drives me bat shit crazy.

Give the posters a chance to wake up on Saturday morning and finalize their plays.

I'm willing to change the CFB Deadline to maybe Midnight, but not Saturday Morning.
because we would probably get the excuses about they didn't get up in time, they slept in late, etc...

the other reason for the Deadline is so there's no Copy cats to the las vegas Contests

Betall, a midnight deadline would even be better.

You know as well as I do there will be excuses no matter what time you set. Why not 11:00 EDT Saturday?

What other LV contests are you referring to?

I'm talking Midnight Friday for CFB, instead of the current 8 or 9PM Friday
NFL will stand as is ... as in the past it has Stopped copy cats of the REAL Super Contest.

Like C.P. said, you find it more towards the end of the Contest, as they just copy from the Top 1-3 of the westgate

I know this has been talked about many many times ... and some have said, Who cares
We have always Tried to keep it as close as the Real Contest. and Those Real Contests have Deadlines

The Westgate has a 12 Noon PST Deadline
in the past when they had the leroy's CFB, they had ( I think ) a Friday Night Deadline of 8 PM PST Deadline

So we need Deadlines, and also need time for JOH to make sure things are Right.

Midnight Friday night is better than nothing but I still don't know what CFB contests you're talking about people copying?

William Hill and the Golden Nugget have CFB Contests ( the GN one is a combo of the NFL & CFB )

The contest itself isn't online, but Yes the picks are released online around 9pm eastern, Friday night

Interesting. Never knew these contests existed.

Can we do midnight Friday evening this year?

I personally don't care if people copy plays from some dumb contest anyway. We have to put in 7 plays. I worry about my plays not the contestants I'm going against but that's just me.

Is the Mini Contest for just the NFL like the Westgate or for both contests....Nice addition thanks in advance.

Is it a flat fee of $300 if we enter both?

Was going to go with Midnight, but I think it's unfair to JOH ... Plus ...then it's possible the Picks won't be released until Saturday Morning
You need to remember Only JOH can see and release the Picks, I can't ... because I'm usually in the contests.

He's on the east coast and sometimes might not be up at that time.

If we did 10PM Eastern, that would be 7PM for you West coast guys ... 11PM would make it 8PM

spending over 6 weeks on the West Coast recently, I could understand where you guys are coming from.

we had a 8PM eastern deadline last year, I'd be willing to go with a 10PM Deadline which is 7PM for you West coast guys.

Remember, these Vegas Contests have these Deadlines Too !
They are ALL based on Vegas Time

The above is ONLY for the CFB Contest.

NFL will stay the same

This is a fair concession BAS. Thanks. Maybe I'll get you to midnight next year. It's only taken me 5 or so years to get you to 10 haha.
