Welcome back to the best Post-Up Football Contest on any Forum of the internet. This will be the 7th Annual College Football Contest. Once again, JOH will provide the setup with google forms & spreadsheets, post the lines, grade the entries and put up the standings on a weekly basis. We try our best to mimic the Las Vegas Tournament, with similar rules and deadlines.

This year, as opposed to the last few years, JOH is now employed by SBR/RX. This contest, however, is not sanctioned by the Forum, meaning they assume no liability for anything detrimental to the running of it and they will not be compensating anyone for services rendered running this contest. Contestants are playing at their own risk, but we can assure you that everything will be done to provide for a smooth ride. In accordance with the LVH Contest, admin fee will go to 8% and will be taken off the top to pay for JOH's services.

This year, we welcome two well regarded longtime posters to help with taking in the entry fees, Willie99 and Livin the Family Life! (LTFL). Each will take in approx 50% of the funds so their accounts don't become unreasonably large. Details on where you will send your money will be posted in a few different places.

RULES :

1. The season long non-refundable CFB Contest entry fee is $100.00. Money Order entries accepted until Thursday, Aug 29, 2019. Pay*Pal entries accepted until Sat, Aug 31, 2019 @ 9:45am. Entries must be submitted before making selections for Week 1. (ALL payments must be received and paid in full by Tues, Sept 3, 2019 @ 3pm ET).

2. Each contestant will use his RX User Name ONLY. (No Team Names) * Max Two Entries

3. Actual cash prizes will be based on total number of contestants. (Breakdown will be posted on or around Tues, Sept, 3, 2019).

4. This Contest is based on picking winning teams against the spread. Contestants must select six (6) teams per week. (Sides Only)
(a) Contestants may not select both sides of the same game. Any violation results in a double loss.
(b) Any selections that are duplicated will be graded in this manner: leftmost pick will be graded normally. All duplications to the right will be graded as automatic losses.
(c) Weekly selections are only submitted once per contest entry. Any subsequent entries will be deleted.

5. Please note all Contest Lines listed in the drop-down menu are playable, even if the game goes OTB (Off the Board) at a later date.

6. Contest winners will be determined by the total number of points accumulated during the CFB regular season. Each winning selection will be credited with 1 point. Ties (pushes) count as ½ point.

7. Contestants must submit their weekly selections by the new deadline of 10AM Eastern time each Saturday morning. Any contestant who fails to submit weekly selections by 10:00:59 AM Eastern time on Saturday will earn 0 points for that week. This time deadline will be strictly enforced.

9a. If you don't have 50+ posts, by the Final Week and you cash, 10% will be deducted from your winnings.
Reason being, these contests were put together for the posters of the RX. It's not fair for the RX posters that come here weekly.

10. Tie-breaking rules:
Tie-breaking rules will be applied to determine first place only. Entries tying for second through 10th place, will equally split aggregate prize money from the respective place. If ties exist after the NFL Football regular season for first place, the champion will be determined based on the entry that accumulated the most contest points during the final three weeks of the regular season. If total points accumulated during the final three weeks is equal most points accumulated during the fourth to the final week will determine the winner, and so on weekly (in reverse order), until the tie is broken. In the unlikely occurrence of a tie after the tie-breakers, co-champions will be declared and the aggregate prize money will be split equally.

Distribution of winnings will start ASAP after contest ends, as everything is double checked to assure there are no mistakes.

* A Google Form will be provided to make your Weekly Picks. They will appear on the accompanying Spreadsheet, with picks released after the 10am ET Saturday deadline.

Last year, we introduced the 1st Annual LV Hilton Style NFL Totals SuperContest and had a turnout of 26 participants. We believe the interest is still there and so, here we go again with year #2.

JOH will once again provide the setup with google forms & spreadsheets, post the lines, grade the entries and put up the standings on a weekly basis. Just like the first two listed above, this contest is not sanctioned by the Forum, meaning they assume no liability for anything detrimental to the running of it and they will not be paying anyone for services rendered to run this contest. So, even though JOH is employed by SBR/RX, he is not compensated by the Forum. In accordance with the LVH Contest, admin fee will go to 8% and will be taken off the top to pay for all administrative services.

RULES :

1. The season long non-refundable entry fee is $100.00. Money Order entries will be accepted until Thurs, Sept 5, 2019. Pay*Pal entries accepted until Sun, Sept 8, 2019 @ 9:45 AM ET. (ALL Payments must be received by Tues, Sept 10, 2019 @ 3 PM ET). Entries must be submitted before making selections for Week 1.

2. Each contestant will use his RX User Name ONLY. (No Team Names) * Max one (1) Entry

3. Actual cash prizes will be based on total number of contestants (they will be posted on or around Wed, Sept 11, 2019)

(2) Winners:
1st Place 70% of Pot
2nd place 30% of Pot

4. This Contest is based on picking Totals ONLY. Contestants must select five (5) Totals per week.
(a) Contestants may not select both sides of the same game. Any violation results in a double loss.
(b) Any selections that are duplicated will be graded in this manner: leftmost pick will be graded normally. All duplications to the right will be graded as automatic losses.
(c) Weekly selections are only submitted once per contest entry. Any subsequent entries will be deleted.

5. Please note all Contest Lines listed in the drop-down menu are playable, even if the game goes OTB (Off the Board) at a later date.

6. Contest winners will be determined by the total number of points accumulated during the NFL regular season. Each winning selection will be credited with one (1) point. Ties (pushes) count as one half (½) point.

7. Contestants must submit their weekly selections by the new deadline of 10AM Eastern time each Sunday morning, except when contestant wishes to use any game that starts before the deadline. If he wishes to use a game that is scheduled to start before this deadline (ie, Wed, Thur or Sat game), their 5 weekly selections must be submitted prior to the scheduled start of those games. Any pick set using an early game that is submitted late will be charged with a loss for any game that starts before the deadline. Any contestant who fails to submit weekly selections by 10:00:59 AM Eastern time on Sunday will earn zero points for that week. This time deadline will be strictly enforced.

8. Weekly lines will be posted each Thurs morning by 10:00 AM ET (Lines from Betonline.ag).

9. Only RX members are eligible to play (You MUST have an RX User Name and have at least 25 posts to enter and 50 by contest end).
(a) If you do NOT have at least 25 Posts, DO NOT ENTER as your payment will be returned.
(b) If you don't have 50+ posts by the Week 16 and you cash, you will have 10% deducted from your winnings. The reason is because this contest, as well as the others, was put together for the Posters of the RX. It's not fair for the RX posters that come here weekly.

10. Tie-breaking rules:
Entries tying for 1st and 2nd places, will equally split aggregate prize money from their respective place and co-champions will be declared.

* A Google Form & accompanying spreadsheet will be provided to make and view your weekly picks. Picks will be hidden up until 10 AM Sunday deadline.
