About time someone got around to asking

you are slacking Mo :devil:

The Doc's contest was a good format. Too bad it turned into a clusterfuck with the constant changing of the rules and posting times, etc.

I would like to see it run again, but maybe with Raiders in charge of it to see that it is run well.

yeah we'll have to get a version of the last man standing for sure.
 
Re: What kind of football contests would you guys be interested in?

The contest where you pick the team with no pointspread.. You can only use them once.

I dont know the name of the contest.

Here is one that I was thinking of....I'm not sure if someone else has used it though. Reverse survivor for CFB. Each week you have to pick a Top 25 CFB team to lose....no limit on the amount of times you can pick a team. Could be very fun and interesting.

Re: What kind of football contests would you guys be interested in?

here's a couple specific ideas:

1.weekly pick 'em contest for the abc saturday night game just like we do for baseball.
2.preseason conference prediction contest - pick the final conference standings through the first 3 spots (ie, Florida #1, LSU #2, Ole Miss #3 for the SEC...if a tie just go with the higher ranking). get 3 points for picking the winner, 2 for 2nd, and 1 for third.
3. pick a winning ats side survivor contest - can be any game, just pick the ats winner and advance.
4. pick a losing top 25 team survivor contest- can't pick one team more than once.
5. weekly pick 'em contest - moderators or somebody pick the five highest profile games of the week, everybody picks ATS and totals (10 picks total). tiebreaker(s) can be highest scoring/lowest scoring team(s) or something like that.


just some suggestions though. whatever they are they'll be fun...

As long as the winner gets Chuck Lucks executive phone service for life I don't care what kind of contest we have.

We should make or bets and have them graded by a computer so we can keep correct records.

The pick the loser each NFL week was a fun one last year - reverse last man standing....

I would like to see a post up contest but a sponsor pays the prizes like Phoenix Sports has been running for 8 years. $10,000 top prize, and you can use your post up to gamble with.

Hilton format. Post Up. 5 selections each week.

I agree with the Hilton style format and also the Doc style format. One of the purpose of this site is to Help handicappers win cash. This style gives you top handicappers plays using the pointspread with their records being documented. Just my 2 cents.

I think we should all have a diver down moustache growing contest this year. And the winner will recieve a prize same time next year, along with a super sexy moustache.

My suggestion is a contest where the lines are put out by at least thursday/friday and that aren't graded by enfuego.

I don't think he ever technically graded any of them, he just was in charge of it for the majority of the contest...

High Times and I think dio (feel free to correct me if I am wrong someone, graded them...)
