A First For Ick’s Picks

January 6th, 2010 · 6 Comments

In the three years I have been doing NFL picks on my site, the corner has never seen a tie. Well this year we have a 3 way tie for first place. I would like to thank SkillsNoLuck for predicting this before the season started. Thanks for jinxing me buddy! So after talking it over with a few people on how to resolve this issue we have come up with the following.

The NFL Picks will be extended into the playoffs, but there are a few twists. The three people involved in the tie will be the only ones allowed to make their picks.  I will post the Wild Card weekend picks (4 games) for this week and the players will Email me their picks (twist number 1).  The 2 players with the most correct picks for Wild Card weekend will advance to the next week (twist number2 ). The player with the lowest correct picks will be eliminated.

I will then post the next week of playoff games and the final two players will email me their picks as they did for the Wild Card weekend. Hopefully at this point we will have a clear cut winner. If we do not have a clear cut winner, then we will move to the next week of playoff games. If we do not have clear cut winner by the Superbowl, then the remaining players will be asked to pick the winner of the Superbowl, and predict a final score. (final score for tie breaking purposes) In the event of a tie (both players pick the winner) the final score prediction will be used.  Closest with their prediction wins.

The three players involved in the three way tie for 1st, picking 178 correct games each are…

Totals for the rest of us mere mortals,

2. Steve Burri – 174

6. Defending Champion (Silent E) 166

7. SkillsNoLuck – 164

I have emailed each of you involved in the tie breaker my email address, Good luck guys.

I would also like to thank everyone that played this year, it was a lot of fun. Next year we are planning to try and have all the picks automated.

    Thanks, Ick. I enjoyed the game.

    I’ll figure out how those other three cheated and beat them next year!

    @ Steve Burri

    I’m glad you enjoyed it, I really appreciate you for taking the time to play. Next year we are going to try and have a new format. Everything done automatically. Liverdamage has that project on his plate, and I’m sure he will be able to whip up a program for us to use.

    Don’t be a stranger.. :thumbs:
