just making sure everyone knows that it's a confidence points pool...you pick the winner plus you have to rank how 'confident' you are that you picked right. 3 of you only had 1 and 2 points on yesterday's games, that why I'm mentioning this...you can still rank if you haven't and others can still join...

Don't understand the 'rank' (are you not gonna get just the 1 or 2 points, for another game, if you didn't last night...:shrug:)....I'm confident in all my picks :jester:

I'm with Str8 here, I don't get the confidence thing. If I made my picks, shouldn't I be pretty confident of them? What picks wouldn't I be confident of. I don't get it.

My name is Maximus Decimus Warthog, member of HomeoftheChiefs.com, former season ticket holder of the lower level , loyal servant to the true coach, Martimus Schottenheimer. Father to disenfranchised sons, husband to a non football fanatic wife, and I will see my Chiefs in a Super Bowl, in this life or the next.

are you guys messing with me? :jester:

on the right side of the list of games you'll see each game has a number assigned to it. That's how many points you'll get if you pick it right. If you don't change anything you'll just get however many points is next to that game,. The list is in order of when the games are played so if don't change anything every game is worth 1 more point than the last, ie: the 1st 2 games were worth 1 and 2, and the champ game is worth 34...you drag and drop the games putting the ones you're most 'confident' in at the top...that's how some of us got 10 points yesterday,,,,

I get that. But on the same hand, are you not possibly gonna get that 1 or 2 point win, where if we pick the same winner, I will get the 10 or 'x' amount then......kinda seems like a wash. :shareblunt:

You'll also notice that you have a max amount of points that you could get. However, that number goes down by the amount of confidence points that you have on a pick that you lost.

Which is why I have all my smaller confidence points on all of these smaller bowls. I'm saving all of my larger points for the bigger games.
