View Spreadsheet... like it says. ^

Obviously the spreadsheet does not really work to a tee when a guy can just copy your plays and move one point away on the tiebreakers. Guess I will try to be the last guy to enter next time

I believe you can't see anyone's picks until the games start and the contest is closed.

Actually you could see the picks right from the start but we COULD change that.

this still doesnt really determine u as a winner. heh

u have to go 4-0 first off and then from there u still would have to guess either higher than that number or lower than that number by 1.

basically u can get an advantage but its very slim and not nearly as much of a difference maker as u imply

congrats on the winners last night

What? The guy copied my 4 picks then went one point lower than me on the tiebreaker. Yes, he could have lost if he went one point higher than me. Other than that he was guaranteed a win. I am not saying that we did not both have the games pegged alike, but there is a definite advantage at going last if you can see someone elses plays. If I had went after him and saw that he had the same four picks as I had, I would have simply went one point higher or lower than him. There is a major advantage at going last because you can simply go one point higher or lower than the other guy on the tiebreaker. All the numbers you could pick for the tiebreaker and you think it is a coincidence after I pick 396, someone comes and picks the same four games I pick then 395. No way is that coincidence but I would have done the same as long as the info is public. Might as well just post in the thread if people can see your picks.

you do realize there was 2 people after him and several people after u and only 1 guy (who happened to win) u are accusing of this.. i mean in all honesty picking the 4 plays is the hard part.. the tie breaker is meant to be a tie breaker.. get the number right and u have no too high or too low problems

the game Price is Right has used this for years and people guess 1$ and then 2$ etc.. and when someone says 500$. next person says 501. and so on.....no one complains about this because plenty of people Pick the right price enough times and all players know the rules going in.....if u think u have an advantage next time by waiting till last, go ahead.. (my guess is it will not improve ur chances much at all) u still have to take a risk by picking high or low, not to mention the 4 games to begin with.. as someone before u had 3 picks same way as u and u changed the 4th pick.. coincidence? prolly not.. u changed it yourself to give yourself and advantage different from the one u are upset about.. but the same rules and theories as to why u picked it apply....puff_>>

You're insane to think that I copied your picks, all I did was take a best guess and added up the totals online which added up to 395 (203.5 & 191.5). I didn't even look at other poster picks as I just opened the file and made my picks.

first contest this guy has ever played here and becomes the self-proclaimed expert on how to run things. I'll have to take notes.
