Overall Standings21-Sep-11 08:52:35 PM
Just a quick note to everyone, the overall standings is calculated based on your best 16 out of 17 weeks in the season and your worst week is used in the "Dropped Week" category. Since this is the 2nd week, we have dropped your lowest week so right now only your highest week is used for the overall standings and the lowest week is in the Dropped Week category. Next week your best 2 out of 3 weeks will be used in the Overall standings....etc
Week 2 Wrap Up21-Sep-11 02:48:42 PM
Wow what a week for points. Lance Frohlick has set the bar for the rest of the year. This is a great score and will be tough to beat. Craig Byrnie almost beat it though with a great week of his own. Joe Mandario and Geoff Manning tied for 3rd.
Lance, Craig, Joe, Gary Morrissey, Gary Vinet, Jeff Thompson and Brad Campeau all went 15-1 all only missing the Tennessee upset win over Baltimore. Way to go you guys.
Some guys that had some insight of the winners AND the margin of victory were Jack Ballard, Nate Stephens, Brett Huber, Kirk McKenney and Scott Forbes as they all received 3 Bang On's a piece this week.
These 4 made the most of their Sunday night Atlanta by 4 pick to receive top honours in the Sunday Night category: Tyler Bruhaug, Jerret Vaughn, Jeff Thompson and David Ko while these 4 plucked the NY Giant by 12 victory on Monday night: Jack Ballard, Kirk Mills, Justin Johal and Kirk McKenney to move up in the Monday Night category.
There were some ties in the Head 2 Head this week. Scroll down to the bottom of this home page to read the tiebreaking procedures. Rae Andrews (our webmaster) the 8th seed was the highest seed to be knocked out and all 5 first round winners were eliminated in the second round.
There were also a couple of ties in League Play but since it is a round robin these ties will remain as ties. Every division has a 2-0 and 0-2 but with 9 games total nobody is considered out of it yet.
A school principle in this pool made a great suggestion for the playoff pool. He figured that with the amount of poolsters in the pool now, if you put them around in a circle and figured out the circumference and multiplied it by pi and taking in the hypothesis this will determine a number that if you took the square root from and multiplied it by the third power it give you a total of 100.....(catch my breath) Long story short, the Top 100 poolsters now make the playoffs.
Deadline for Week 3 Picks is September 25th at 9:00 am PST. Good luck.
Week 2 Scenario18-Sep-11 08:51:40 PM
If St. Louis wins or NY Giants win between 1-9 then Craig Byrnie wins the weekly.
If NY Giants win by 10 or more then Lance Frohlick wins the weekly.
Good luck you two!!!!
Week 1 Wrap Up13-Sep-11 05:06:44 PM
Congratulations goes out to Mike Lochhead who got 2 Bang On's on Monday night to hoist himself to win the weekly going 13-3. Andrew Belchin hung onto 2nd place with only 11 correct but fantastic spreads. Matt Hora had a Cam Newton like rookie week but like Newton came away with nothing finishing in 3rd.
I have calculated the new money distribution for this season and I have allocated the extra $1800 as follows:
Weekly winners - $240 over 17 weeks (was $220)
Runner Ups - still a free entry but I plan on raising the entry fee to $60 next year to avoid this $5 change thing... so ($85 increase $5 x 17 weeks)
Overall Top 10 - $830 added to Top 10 winners
Overall Categories and Head 2 Head increased $50 each ($50 x 7)
Playoff Pool - $110 added to winners
Gridiron League - added total of $85 to Final 4
(see Money Distribution 2010-2011 for new totals)
The League results for week 1 are now posted and can be found under League Play Round 1. There were some good scores that received losses and some poor scores that received wins. Just the way the cookie crumbles.
Head 2 Head starts up for the rest of us. We have only lost 5 so far but will lose 128 more after this week.
We have already lost 80 poolsters in the Survivor pool.
Just a couple of honorable mentions to Annette Axen, Lance Frohlick and Stu Boklage who also went 13-3 with Mike. Also some props to Mike Lanteigne and Ted Rathbone who each received 4 Bang On's to get out to the lead in that category.
Reminder that next weeks picks are due on Sunday at 9:00 PST. Good luck to all now that we all got the Week 1 gitters out of the way.
Week 1 Scenario12-Sep-11 07:59:21 PM
If Denver wins between 1-13 or if Oakland wins by 24 or more then Andrew Balchin wins the weekly.
If Denver wins between 14-28 then Matt Hora wins the weekly.
If Denver wins by 29 or more then Andrew and Matt tie for the weekly.
If Oakland wins between 1-22 then Mike Lochhead wins the weekly.
If Oakland wins by 23 then Andrew and Mike tie for the weekly. Good luck you guys.
And Away We go..........09-Sep-11 08:26:50 AM
What a great game to start the season. Dave Fung, Gary Neufeld and Rob Ellis got off to great starts as well by plucking off a Bang On with their Green Bay by 8 pick.
It looks like we will have 261 poolsters this season which is the most we've ever had so thank you for all your efforts to bring in the poolsters. The winner of the free entry for bringing in the most recruits is Stacy Scully who brought in a total of 6. Congratulations and thanks Stacy.
I will be working Friday and Saturday on a schedule for the league play and will have it posted before Sundays games. Remember to have the rest of your picks in before the Sunday at 9:00 am PST deadline and I wish you all the best of luck.
SURVIVOR PICK !!!08-Sep-11 08:30:11 AM
Please remember to enter your Survivor pick located in the RED box located above the rest of your picks on the pick sheet. Must be entered before the first game of every week.....if you SURVIVE
Gridiron Web Features15-Aug-11 03:25:38 PM
For all the standings for each individual category please click on the Display Results & Standings and click on the drop down box titled Select Standing Type. This will show you the standings for the Most Wins, Most Bang On's, Most Sunday night points, Most Monday night points and Best Dropped Week. The dropped week will come into play starting Week 2. When you notice that after Week 2 that only one week was recorded it is because you don't count your lowest week at seasons end. The Overall Standings will always calculate your total score minus your lowest week.
One of the new features that Rae has installed on the web site is the Compare Player Picks link to the left. Use this feature to to see how you stack up against your opponenet for the week. The games you have different will be bolded to easily see which games mean the most to win and view the results and compare how the spread points differ between the two sets of picks.
To view the League Standings click League Play 2010 Round 1 and find your name in 1 of the 25 groups. The groupings will not change for the first 9 weeks so it will be easier to find in the upcoming weeks.
The Head 2 Head tourney starts this week so click on Display Head 2 Head. Underneath the Cowboys picture there is a link titled Jump to my Name. Click on this link and it will show you where you are on the flow chart and it should be highlighted. Win you move on lose and your out.
Click on Display Survivor Results to see how you and others fared in the Dog Eat Dog world of the Survivor Pool.
Survivor Rules15-Aug-11 03:25:50 PM
Once you get your password (which you only get once you pay) and click on Enter My Picks, you will notice at the top of the page a box titled Survivor Pick. Every week you will select a team to outright win the game. If they win you advance to the next week. If they lose then you are done for the season. That sounds easy enough, what’s the catch. The catch is you are only allowed to select a team once per season. Once you’ve selected a team you can no longer pick them so it gets tougher as you go along.
Your pick MUST be in before the deadline of the FIRST GAME OF EACH WEEK. If you forget, you’re out of luck. For those of you who have already submitted your picks for week one please reenter the site and submit your survivor pick.
On the left side of the screen, click Display Survivor Results and you will be able to see the other Survivor picks one hour prior to opening kickoff.
The prize payout will be determined once the field of participants has been established. If more than 1 of you survive all 17 weeks you will split the prize pot between yourselves. If more than one of you lose at the same time but are the last group remaining you will split the pot.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to fire off your questions and I would be happy to share them with the group.
Description of Prize Payouts15-Aug-11 03:26:11 PM
For those of you new to the pool and for those who didn't quite get it last season here is a breakdown of the types of standings and other ways to win money.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overall Standings
I've basically broken down how the points work in the rules. The overall standings is the total of your points from your best 16 out of 17 weeks (you throw your worst week out the window, but is comes back later read on). The Top 10 at the end of the regular season win prize money. Any ties split the total prize money between the tied positions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Weekly Results
This category is your total points from all of the games for the week. There is one weekly winner and one second place winner each week and 17 weekly and runner up winners throughout the season. Any ties split the weekly winnings.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Highest Dropped Week
This is where your worst week of the season comes back into play. See how your worst week stacks up against your fellow participants. If you fall in the Top 3 you actually win money for a bad week (it can't be too bad though).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most Bang On's
Bang On's are predictions where you pick the correct team AND the correct spread. If you can average slightly over 1 per week you've done very well for yourself as they are tougher to come by as you would think. Whoever ends up with the 3 highest totals wins $$$ at seasons end.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most Winners
So you were way off on your spreads throughout the season. You couldn't even come close, fear not as there is a category for you. Back to basics, just picking the winner of the most games by the time the season closes. Top 3 win gets to say "Show me the Money".
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sunday Night Scores
Whenever you see Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth on Sunday night is when this category kicks in. Add up all your Sunday night scores throughout the year and see if it earns you some cash. Yes, you guessed it, the Top 3 get paid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monday Night Scores
See Sunday Night Scores but replace Al and Cris with Jon Gruden, Mike Tirico and Ron Jaworski.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Playoff Standings
The Gridiron Football Pool also rewards their Top Point getters with a bonus round to win more money. The Top 75 at the end of the season qualify for the Playoffs (no more money required). You basically do the same as you have during the regular season by picking the team and spreads every week but as you start nearing the Super Bowl some people need to start taking chances with either wacky big spreads or pulling for a huge underdog to come through to snag victory out from underneath the leaders feet. Weird things happen but you're never safe until the Vince Lombardi trophy is raised. The Top 5 win money.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Head 2 Head Tournament
Do nothing more than enter your picks and enjoy the game. This little tournament gives you something else to pull for during the season. Starting in Week 2, you have a chance to be the last poolster standing. Each week you will be facing off against someone else in the pool. You will be able to see their picks one hour before the deadline and then you can compare which games you have different and cheer on those games. Win and you move on, lose and you're done. The Top 3 winners win money (if you make the Top 4 the losers in the semi-finals play each other for 3rd place). Don't worry if you get knocked out early because we start all over again in Week 10 and do it again one more time.
Here is the tie breaker procedure:
1. Most wins
2. Most Bang On's
3. Best score in prior week
4. Best score 2 weeks prior etc.
Please click on the link to the left for the flowchart and find yourself and who you face (coming soon).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gridiron League
With us having a record number of poolsters last year, I have decided to try something new for even more fun.
Last year we had 190 poolsters. We started with 19 groups of 10 with everybody playing everyone within their group once for a total of 9 games. Your weekly score will decide what you score is each week. The Top team in the group and 13 - 2nd place teams (based on record then total points) move onto the round of 32.
The group of 32 will be broken down to form 8 groups of 4 playing each other once. The top 2 in each group move onto the Round of 16.
The group of 16 will be broken down to form 4 groups of 4 playing each other once. Only the Top team from each division will move onto the Semi Finals.
The Top 4 will win money but how much money will be determined on the Semi Final results and eventually the Inaugural Gridiron League Champion will be basking in Loonies and Toonies.
Here is the tie breaker procedure:
1. Head to Head wins between tied participants
2. Most points throughout Round Robin (current round only)
3. Best score in prior week
4. Best score 2 weeks prior etc.
Since I don't know exactly the amount of poolsters until an hour before the season starts, the schedule will be up before Week 1 Sunday. The seedings are based on last years standings first then rookies in the order they pay. I hope you enjoy it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The money breakdown will be up shortly as well once I determine the amount of poolsters and the breakdown of all the different prizes. (Click on Money Distribution for last seasons disbursements)
