Why are my picks always misscored in the Hockey Contest???

On Oct 22 I should be even ==you have me -$200??

On Oct 23 I should be +10=== you have me -$200??

All mistakes are always made against me??

Before that you had me losing -$560 when I had never made a bet??

I realize it's tough to score so many picks but I'm starting to become paranoid when every day my picks are scored incorrectly.

juggler

i believe pucklines are not allowed

i may be wrong............that might explain it

Glaken · 10-25-05, 08:31 PM

Only money lines as stated in the rules .... anything else is a loss. Juggler I will audit your picks and correct any errors.

Glaken · 10-25-05, 08:48 PM

Tony I just don't count plays after 7 .... I sometimes forget to lock the thread .... Thanks for the offer buddy I will keep that in mind.

Juggler · 10-26-05, 05:22 AM

So your saying my Winning Total on Oct 22Nd does not count??

What does that have to do with my posting the Puck line on Mont in the straight wager?? You can count that a Loser as I did.

And on the 23rd My winning Kings total you still find a Loser?

IF Minn loses and the Total Wins Isn't that Even for that day? Final score was 3-2 ==I was Under 6

You know what I will quit playing in the contest because I do not understand your responses or your Addition. Thanks anyway.

Rinkrat · 10-26-05, 01:24 PM

The original rules post says no puck lines or totals Juggler. What's so hard to understand about that?

Do you jump in to everything without reading the rules?

Grading these things is a thankless job at best. Just check your standings daily and email Glaken if there are mistakes. Should just take a second.

5teamparlay · 10-26-05, 05:08 PM

MY first 6 plays were graded at -600 i played all totals and pucklines, now i'm in the $$$. never once did i complain, read the rules.

wrigley · 10-26-05, 06:05 PM

Glaken I say return Juggler's entry fee for this contest and let him go on his way

Some people are just not as intelligient as others.

Juggler · 10-27-05, 03:26 AM

If totals were not allowed then why were they posted in the official contest threads? I did assume that all the lines posted in the official contest threads would be eligible for being used in the contest. So I guess that makes me very stupid. I think it's not too smart to list unallowed bets right over the entrants listings for the daily contest. I've been in many other Hockey Contests and this is the first one I've ever heard of that didn't allow puck lines or totals. So= No! I didn't read the original rules and have to admit I assumed what I thought would be very obvious.

By the way Coconutbrain,

Why don't you put your head out of your ass and mind your own business. I don't think any of my remarks were addressed to you.

Glaken · 10-27-05, 04:26 AM

Please feel free to NOT participate anymore ... I have 111 people in this contest and you are the 3rd one that can't read the rules...

you are not stupid, you jumped to the wrong conclusion. I did the same thing when I saw others one day picking other types of lines I did the same thing and got a big 0-6 grade. but you know what I was wrong and I just pulled up the boot straps and fought my way back. I was a little surprised that one day the Grand Salammi was allowed as a wager as that is not a money line side so there is some flexibility in these rules but the GRADER gets to make those calls, its a ton of work for Glaken what he says goes. get back in and you can still play catchup.

Juggler · 10-27-05, 08:15 PM

try,try try,

I'm glad someone else at least see's my point! I do admit I should have read the rules and not jumped to any conclusions. So I do except the responsibility of being ultimately the one who is wrong. But to be criticized by Two nosey people ===One who calls himself a RAT! (102nd out of 130 entrants) And the other who has a coconut brain. Now that really hurt!

Glaken · 10-27-05, 08:17 PM

Just get back in it buddy .... 6 more months to go.

Juggler · 10-27-05, 10:22 PM

OK Glaken===== I apologize for my misstake.
