Just wanted to let everyone know that there have been no updates to the standings since my PC crashed around the Vegas Tournament.  Lost were the standings through that point, so I have to rebuild the spreadsheet and re-enter the entries.

So, please keep playing and I hope to have this rectified by the end of the weekend (hopefully).  

Thank you for playing.

Brad

Have everyone self calculate their numbers after the game? at least we can have a swag of how we did, and u can have something easy to check. maybe give us a prescribed format we all can use, to make it easier on you guys?

The rules for how to calculate are on the main page of the prediction contest each week... I may be wrong there, just seems like that is where it is listed.

Feel free to calculate on your own...

We'll get caught up soon enough... there is a lot on our plate over the next couple months, including a probable hardware upgrade.

The contest winner will be chosen based on a points system as follows.  

1) Correct on winning team - 10 points

2) Correct on Margin of victory - 15 points  (subtract one point for each variance in actual and predicted margin - 0 points awarded if actual winner not predicted.)

3) Correct Leading Scorer - 5 points

   Correct Point total 10 points (subtract one point for each variance in actual and predicted total - 0 points awarded if correct leading scorer not predicted.)

4) Correct Leading Rebounder - 5 points

   Correct Rebound total 10 points (subtract one point for each variance in actual and predicted total - 0 points awarded if correct leading scorer not predicted.)

5)  Free throw percentage - within 3 percentage points of actual - 10 points; 5 percentage points of actual - 5 points; 10 percentage points - 1 point

When can we start collecting on the prizes?

When you have been declared a winner...

The spreadsheet has been rebuilt and I have input the Game 1 entries and moving on from there.  I hope to have this complete tonight.
