So, I can only use the individual #'s, 1 thru 32, once, correct? There will be no 'rating' of say, 16, twice, correct? 32 games = number's 1 thru 32 used once.

Yeah. Just rate each game on how sure you are the team you pick is gonna win. 32 being the most confident. 1 being the least.

Edit: AND get your picks in by TOMORROW

I made my picks, but have no idea of what I really did...I tried to 'drop-and-drag' my picks, but that didn't work, for me...I went to the 'traditional' or w/e they call it and still couldn't switch things up, so I just picked who I think/wish/hope wins each game.....Maybe after the the group picks get posted I'll be able to see what's going on for next years picks...??? LOL

Yeah, I tried several times last night to edit my picks and change the "confidence" points, but it would never let me. So I still don't have the picks done. And I may not if the damn program doesn't get rid of its glitches.

I understand the way it is done.....I just didn't realize that we were dropping the lowest two scores in pro, like we were in college......I figured since we weren't playing the spread in pro, that we weren't doin' the drop 2 lowest, as well.
And you have every reason to be scared, as you well know!! pokey.gif
For now. wink.gif I think I'll make a point of giving you the boot outta 1st this week. You've had it long ehough. tongue.gif

Okay.....I'm going to show my ignorance here, but, what is the confidence points??? Is it what we think the team we pick will win by??? Sorta like setting our own spread?? Thanks in advance to anyone that can provide me the info. (try to remember who you're trying to explain it to too, when you do. Simple for the simpleton, pretty please. tongue.gif )



Why do I always get into trouble whenever I say something remotely close to this? Just curious! whistling.gif

Go to the page your picks are on. Go to "edit pick set info". That's where you change it.
