https://wizardofvegas.com/forum/off-topic/general/15962-for-those-not-in-the-nfl-contest-and-freeroll/#post294386
We are going to have a Playoff version of the WoV Picks Game this year.
Here are the Rules:
1.) StrictlyAP has kindly donated $50 to this competition, and said $50 shall be the only money on the table. If anyone else wishes to make any bets amongst themselves, that's fine, but the $50 from StrictlyAP is the only money officially part of the game.
***Winner gets $50, no other places are paid.
2.) If you wish to participate, simply PM me your Picks before the deadline of Wild Card Weekend. You will not need to send a PM to register yourself in the game, and honestly, I would prefer if you didn't so that it doesn't get mixed up with the WoV Picks Game PM's ongoing.
3.) Every player shall pick AtS and Over/Under for every single playoff game. Failure to do so will result in summary elimination.
4.) If you are currently participating in the WoV Picks Game, I will probably send a PM reminder, per the usual, on this game.
5.) Selections will always be due before 23:59 EST on the FRIDAY prior to the Playoff week. Picks are usually due on Saturday, so try to keep it in mind.
6.) In the event of a possible tie in record, for the Super Bowl, there will be additional Prop stats which must be selected, though I've not decided on them yet.

***I do not know whether or not he is planning to formally defend his $50, so we'll wait to see if he mentions that.
3.) I will post the Spreads and Over/Unders for any Playoff games on the Tuesday evening (or early a.m. Wednesday) preceding those games.
4.) Picks will be due by 23:59 EST on the FRIDAY before the games during any weeks in which there are games played on Saturday. If there are no games being played on Saturday, then Picks will be due by 23:59 EST on Saturday.

6.) If you are currently participating in the WoV Picks game, actively, you will probably receive a reminder about this game either Wed/Thurs. via PM.

There's been no chatter about this, and I didn't see a PM, so I'm thinking maybe a lot of people missed it on NYE? Anyway, here's a bump bringing it back to the top of the heap.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

Flea,
It's so easy even a girl can do it! :)
Copy and paste Mission's lines above into a PM to him.
Delete the team you don't want off each line, along with the numbers to its immediate right.
Change the "O/U" part to either OVER or UNDER on each game.
That's it!

I kind of feel bad that you put up the 50 considering your last update was minus 40k. I hope things ended up turning themselves around after that.

I pm'd Mission my picks. Considering my success (or total lack thereof) in the regular weekly game, I am willing to sell my picks to the highest bidder. Anyone who would have just faded my picks for the season would have been a runaway winner.....

Procedural/Rule Addendum
1.) If you have any side bets going on, please let me know and I will continue to track your results, but for the time being:***
A.) If you are down by Seven (or more) Picks going into the Conference Championships, you cannot mathematically win (six Picks left) and will be considered, "Eliminated," for efficiency purposes.
B.) If you are down by Three (or more) Picks going into the Super Bowl, you cannot mathematically win (two Picks left) and will be considered, "Eliminated," for efficiency purposes.
***For anyone with no side bets, this Rule doesn't matter as no money is on the line.

I just checked, I too have a unique combination due to over/under. My over/under picks alone are unique. My team picks are the same as 3 others.
Overall though, unique. I'll either crush or be out after 1st weekend. 1st game looking good so far, got Chiefs and over :-)

Not saying the Saints will do this, but wonder how many more times the Saints will have "an injury of some sort" once the Eagles enter red zone territory, in order to slow the Eagles down on their drive. lol

Come on, just run the clock, kick a FG, Saints and under...or fail to score completely, I'm good with that, too.

We also have two players who are the opposite of perfect, but at least one of them must have a win tomorrow as one took the Bengals and the other the Chargers, though both have that game Under.

picking sports is stupid. It is amazing how bad I am at it. I would bet I am 40% for the year.
Expect the worst and you will never be disappointed.

Mission, looks like you're still perfect; good for you!

Ain't the Niners/Packers game a no decision as it landed on the line?
That would put us tied.
