No worries Key (can I call u key for short...lol). Your right this contest will dwindle down as players start to lose interest and drop out on their own. No more suggestions from me, time to concentrate on wagers.... |

Apparently you don't play money lines, which yours truly and 3BallBomber do. The big discrepancies are because I play money line dogs and he plays favorites. Since the competition is based on return on risk Won-Lost does matter. If one guy makes a $100 with a 5-3 (62.5%) record and another guy makes $100 with a 27-25 (51.9%) record there certainly is a difference in what they produced. Your right I don't play moneylines and I think a majority of the people in this contest don't play moneylines as well. Theres a lot of ways that u can make a sports wager (first half wagers, second half wagers, moneylines, spreads, o/u, etc.) so I was simply suggesting we use one format to simplify thinks for Rooney (less mathematical calculations) so he doesn't have to put so much time in this thing.
I didn't go back to check your wagers so I didn't know they were moneyline....I thought a mistake was made so I mentioned it...Good luck in the contest!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Rooney....I have a couple of suggestions that might simplify this for you. I think that on the day 1 post u said that the the unit bet is $100 "no more and no less" and on the day 2 post u said that your using a 10 cent line (-110) on all bets to simplify things for yourself so my question/suggestion is why even bother posting dollar figures. It's all based on your win-loss total anyway. YTD won/loss record is all u need. If there are people tied when u have your cutoffs just add another player below the cutoff to even out your playing field. Right now the leader is Key Element who is 3-0 with a $419 total but you also have a guy named 3ballbomber at 4-0 at a $182 total. How can this be if all unit bets are $100????? Please forgive me if I misunderstood the contest rules and came to the wrong conclusions. I think your making a personal sacrifice to run this contest for all of us (much appreciated) and anything that u can do to simplify things for yourself is ok by me. Thanks again and Happy Holidays to everyone. FrankB
