Hey Mission, did I really forget to mark a confidence pick this week?

Pretty dumb if so, considering I'm running a side-contest based on confidence bets!



Confirmed, I’m afraid. Straight copy/paste from your PM. They all were, except the defaults. Everyone seems to have the formatting down.

ya I would pretty much default pick any team vs Seahawks, whichever one is getting 3+ points. That's about the extent of my handicapping.

I am moved to add to the list of side prizes. Instead of the “closest to unJon” from last year, I would propose adding a $50 consolation prize to the person whose wins divided by losses most closely matches the Golden Ratio. Confidence picks included just as per the official calculation. This prize can not be won by someone that is already winning an official Mission prize, and in that case the prize will roll to the next closest person, etc.
The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.

Thats a cool prize. I like it.

63-39 should be the magic number. If someone does 6 picks a week for the entire 17 week season.

I expect the winner to be around 63-39. The Golden ratio winner will in my estimation be the second place finisher.

I'm already doing the person whose ratio is closest to pi. This seems similar, but I wouldn't want to discourage additional prizes.

Ugh I had forgotten that. I can do something different if people want. (Ratio to Pi is hard!!) The majority views of the next three people that post in response about whether to change the nature of the Golden Ratio prize will carry the day.

Go ahead and do yours, IMO. My prizes are not cash, and yours is more attainable. I don't think anyone has ever had 3.14:1 in this game, so mine will just go to the winner.

I think Ayecarumba means that because the golden ratio is 8:5, it implies a winning percentage of 61.5% (= 8/13) and that 61.5% is a rather low win rate for finishing 2nd.
So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

I am highly confident he didn’t mean that, but rather he referred to the fine print in the official Golden Ratio rules. (Those that win an official Mission prize are ineligible, the Golden Ratio award would then go to the next closest person, etc.)

Heehee... Your understanding of Phi is right, but unJon has it exactly right. The rules of the new Golden Ratio game prevent it from going to a prize winner in the main game. The second place finisher in the main game already gets $100. In fact, third place also gets a prize, so it could be fourth place or lower...

I am all for more prizes.

So far, I am aware of:

BBB's Pi in the face award
ONM's Pooper Bowl
GWAE's Spring Fling Dinner Roll
unJon's Golden Ratio

Are there others?

Aycarumba.. My contest has been expanded. If there are winnings then I am going to have a free roll for the playoff pickem game. I am not sure on the details or the amount of it but it will only be open to the people whom have participated in this game.

This being week 4, it's the last chance to start getting your qualifications if you haven't begun. There are 18 who have qualified at least once, 8 who have qualified at least twice, and 3 who have qualified three times. You'll need 7 entries before 6pm EST Friday, 7 in the last 5 minutes.

Yes, I'm giving 2 others. One is for the most 6-0 or 5-0 weeks, the other is most 0-6 or 0-5 weeks. Both can be won using default picks. Neither can be won by non-submission of picks.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

I have a $25 prize to whoever loses the most confidence bets. In case of tie, I'll make an addendum that it goes to whichever tied player has the BETTER overall winning percentage. This is to reward the tied bettor who picked better overall, but crappily on their confidence bets.

I have a $25 prize to whoever loses the most confidence bets. In case of tie, I'll make an addendum that it goes to whichever tied player has the BETTER overall winning percentage. This is to reward the tied bettor who picked better overall, but crappily on their confidence bets.



I am 1-2... whoop whoop

I'm pretty much just guessing blind w my picks. I do zero research, hardly watch any games at all. At some point maybe I'll care and wind up 53%.

You guys are too good! They're added!

Here's my process, by the way:

1.) Semi-Randomly open the PM's to change the order.
2.) Copy/Paste all picks.
3.) Look for the same person to appear twice. (This is easier after I have already posted it)
4.) If the same person appears twice, find which set of picks was sent LAST and erase the other.
5.) See if there is anyone missing. (This is easier after I have already posted it)
6.) Look for Default Picks for that person.
7.) Post said Default Picks, if any.

(Wizard had already told me he was going to Default Picks this week, so those were already ready.)

Whoops. onenickelmiracle has two sets of picks.

Consensus reflects both sets and thus will have to be modified.

Incorrect, we're missing Romes, but I'll have to check for defaults. OneNickelMiracle revised his Picks in a later PM, so the offending Picks have been removed. I just saw that Miplet posted and was responding to that, so I'm not actually, 'Finished,' yet.

I think looking for and adding Romes' defaults, if any, will be the last thing I need to do.

Chiefs were the only heavily picked team - presumably because the Matthew Stafford injury was reported after our lines were posted? Or was it just the overall greatness of the Chiefs?

Yes, logically there must be at least 61 wrong picks in week 4. In week 3, there was a theoretical minimum of at least 43 wrong picks - because there were a lot more common picks. And in Week 2 there was a theoretical minimum of 50 wrongs picks. So those numbers indicate that this week the forum contestants picked on both sides of a lot more wagers.
So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.

I'm pretty sure I had a perfect set of picks and ruined it by replacing them with a set of losers. I did go with the Chiefs because of the Stafford news.

I went with the Chiefs because they're a great team. We both still lost on the spread.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.
