**UPDATE**

I am going to drop the lowest 2 scores for everyone. I am going to make another push to get people to sign up, and by doing this maybe we can get a few more to make it more interesting.

Please tell all of your sports friends to sign up. It only takes 2 minutes a week to do this, and you could end up winning a cool prize that we ALL would love to have...

I may also toss in a couple things later in the season to make it more interesting. What do you guys think about a prize for the most correctly guessed spreads, or maybe I will make Civil War games worth 5 each....give me some more ideas that may get more people playing!

maybe instead of guessing the spread correctly should be changed to whoever was closest to picking the spread (if there was no one who actually got the spread correctly guessed).

If actual spread is 3 and
person1 guessed 4
person2 guessed 1
person3 guessed 10

I think person1 should get the bonus 2 points.

Not sure I could easily get my excel spreadsheet to do that for me...let me mess around, and if I can I will update everyone. (honestly, that may have to wait until next year though, it could get complicated)

OK, No problem if it's too complicated. Just a thought!

Well, a couple things I need to let you guys know.

1. Just figured out that my sheet was not calculating the 10th game after week one. I will be updating everything over the next hour or so, and re-post each weeks results along with the overall results. Not a huge change I don't think, but no one got any credit for picking the 10th game correctly since week one.

2. I figured out a way to make it so the person guessing closest to the correct spread will get the extra 2 points. I think it would make it more interesting, so I will be doing this when I update the scores. If anyone has issue with it, please send me a pm and I will revert back to the old way. If ANYONE says no, then we will go back. If you send me a pm saying you don't want to I will keep it to myself and you wont be called out :)

Everything is updated.

I also just got my sheet programmed to drop the lowest 2 weeks, so at this point I am thinking I will wait until week 10 to start reporting the scores that way. It may be a shocker to people when it hits (people that have missed a couple weeks will all of a sudden be back in it, and everyone that has predicted every week will drop down some points as our lowest weeks will be dropped) so everyone let me know what you think. I can start it right now if wanted.
