Why are ML games listed as being available if you can't pick them?  If the consensus is high enough that the game is unavailable then don't display the ML option to pick it.  It's a simple coding change to check the consensus before displaying the ML option for a game.

Also, why not make the "other side" of the consensus available to pick if it is off the board due to lopsided consensus. 

ex - 80% on Cleveland, 20% on Detroit. I understand taking Cleveland off the board at 80%, but why not offer Detroit if it's at 20%?

I know the answer will be "it's a free contest" - we're just making suggestions and we appreciate the free opportunity, at least I do.

                                                                                               Yeah I agree with you Crazy_Train, I've always wondered the same thing, why not offer the other side. That would be amazing. Love Streak Survivor. Great contest. Haven't seen too many people getting past 11 or 12 though lately. Would always be cool to see a few more pick options. Good luck y'all!

It's a tough contest to begin with, but especially in summer with basically only baseball to chose from. You'll see some guys get up there soon with CFB, NFL anf NHL
