LionKing- do you have the totals so far ?

shit, i forgot to enter last week. am i eliminated?

damn - just as I was posting!

I guess so :(

I was trying to think of a fair way to work around people who missed weeks..... but couldn't come up with anything....

Any way to make this a season long contest for points and also have the elimination part as a bonus?

High: Denver
Low: Jacksonville

aye- that way you have a survivor winner, and an overall spread winner . Its possible the two would be the same- but not certain.

High- Kansas City
Low- Houston

High: Seattle
Low: Pittsburgh

High: Atlanta
Low: Pittsburgh

High - Indianapolis
Low - San Diego

High: Denver
Low: Detroit

High: Kansas City
Low: Jacksonville

It was a nice run. Well, no it wasn't. Then again, at this rate, we can probably start a second one at midseason. ;)

SI

Maybe I'm reading the rules wrong, but I don't see anything about someone being eliminated by not submitting an entry. The rules specifically say that you are eliminated if your low outscores your high. If you don't submit a low or high, that doesn't happen.

This means the contest should be open to new players at any time. We just have the handicap of not scoring the first few weeks. Besides, the odds of anyone surviving 17 weeks is slim. Then the highest score could win.

The rules also say nothing about picking a team on a bye week as the low...

That said, I think it was pretty clear this is an elimination game, TLK explained that in the initial thread (if I recall correctly).

High: Minnesota

Low: Jacksonville

This doesn't make sense me. Me sitting at 23 points...this means I could never send in another entry, duck everybody and probably win.

I say, if you forget to send in an entry, you are out.

exactly my thinking....

High: Philly
Low: Pittsburgh

High: Indianapolis
Low: Chicago

High: Indianapolis
Low: Tennessee

FM

Here's mine (better late than never)
High: DEN
Low: DET

That Colts as a high was a pretty sweet pick :)

Jacksonville, even though they won, were not so hot, a good week for me, at least better than my average of 0.5 point per week so far :D

FM

Indy/Arizona would've nearly put it away already. Luckily no one picked that.

Indy/SF would have been even better, heck taking Seattle/SF would have been pretty good too :D

FM

Taking Indy/SD makes up for scoring a total of 4 points in the first two weeks pretty well.
