Dr. Rock Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 (edited) First of all, congrats to both hugh-mongus and redknightsgoingdown: no one has ever made it this far before, much less two people! Obviously, the tie needs to be broken this week. So here's how we're going to play it. First, make your regular pick as usual in this thread. I'd like to see if we can settle it that way before having to go to tiebreakers. If not, this is the tiebreaker: PM your winning picks in 5 separate games this week. These picks may be from the entire league, regardless of whether you picked them already. Whoever gets the most of their 5 correct will win. If you tie on THAT, then we move to the next tiebreaker which should eliminate any tie. Include in your email the total points you think the following 5 teams will score: NE, JAX, CHI, NYG, & SD. To sum up: 1. Make your regular pick in this thread (check the page and don't repeat a pick) 2. PM me your first tiebreaker (winners of 5 games) AND your second tiebreaker (points scored by NE + JAX + CHI + NYG + SD). I hope this isn't confusing or inequitable. Let me know if you have questions or concerns. Sunday, Jan. 2 Cincinnati at Philadelphia, 1:00 p.m. Cleveland at Houston, 1:00 p.m. Detroit at Tennessee, 1:00 p.m. Green Bay at Chicago, 1:00 p.m. Miami at Baltimore, 1:00 p.m. Minnesota at Washington, 1:00 p.m. New Orleans at Carolina, 1:00 p.m. N.Y. Jets at St. Louis, 1:00 p.m. Pittsburgh at Buffalo, 1:00 p.m. San Francisco at New England, 1:00 p.m. Atlanta at Seattle, 4:05 p.m. Tampa Bay at Arizona, 4:05 p.m. Indianapolis at Denver, 4:15 p.m. Jacksonville at Oakland, 4:15 p.m. Kansas City at San Diego, 4:15 p.m. Dallas at N.Y. Giants, 8:30 p.m. Good luck! Edited December 29, 2004 by Dr. Rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh-mongus Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 Texans, please. I will email my tiebreakers shortly. Thanks again for running this, Rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh-mongus Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 Rock...for the 5 tiebreaker picks, can one of the teams be the team we already picked for this week (i.e. can I pick Houston as one of the 5)? I'm guessing not, but wanted a clarification on this. THanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh-mongus Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 red, Have you submitted your 5 tiebreakers to Rock yet? If you have, I'd be curious to see who they are. Mine are in, BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redknightsgoingdown Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 I did, but I cannot for the life of me remember... Do you remember Rock? Wait, I just found a sheet of paper, I think this is what I did.. Tie breaker #1: Ravens, Houston, Carolina, Tennesee, New England Tie breaker #2: 99 points Now no changing Hugh now that you've seen the magic formula.... I assume it was ok to use the Ravens again since I sent it in about 3-4 days ago and Rock said nothing.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That part of the tiebreaker was unclear. Here are mine: Carolina Buffalo Seattle New England Kansas City 120 Hmmm...so if we tie by both getting our picks correct, you have a distinct advantage, but if we tie by both losing this week, I have the advantage. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
