I'm making this post on behalf of Tumama since for some reason they aren't allowed to post???
Tumama has a streak of 9 before picking this game. They also had the under, while it said Linecum vs Worley. With real betting, they'd have the option to automatically cancel the pick if the pitching matchups change. Zito vs Worley is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME and therefore it's completely unfair that they lost their streak of 9 on it.

as unfortunate as it is, that is one of the rules to this game. there was knowledge that lincecum was sick earlier in the day so it is partly everyone who took that prop's fault for not waiting to confirm whether he was in fact starting.
i am sorry that a streak that long was lost, as it is very difficult to get even one streak that long much less trying to get a second, but that is just a part of how this contest works. if he had taken philly in that game, not a word would have been said about it

Sportsbooks see the legitimacy of locking in pitching matchups, so don't try to pin the blame on the user. Not everyone has time to make picks at all times of the day.
Also, maybe if there was a way to actually CHANGE your pick...
" that is one of the rules to this game" Where is this rule stated exactly?

i apologize, it does not explicitly state that you cannot change your pick. it is something i learned by reading the forum (becomes much more obvious when nfl season is going on and people accidentally pick a game 5 days away).
should you be able to change your pick? i think so, but you can't. because of that, in all cases like this some of the blame does fall on the user. if there is a question like that, the user would be wise to not make the pick at all or wait until confirmation of the starting pitchers. he was not forced to make the pick in the first place.
also, this is a free game. no person is losing any money when they lose a pick. is it frustrating? at times. the other thing i'll repeat from before though is that if he took philly, he wouldn't have said a word. they can't make everyone happy all the time, but the rules are the same for everyone.

gotcha, easiest way to hear from them is not through the forums but rather to pm rizzo directly. in the forums you're much more likely to hear back from other people. and no i'm not a moderator, i got addicted to this and go through stretches where i'm checking the site several times a day

I would PM rizzo but when both I and TuMama try to PM him, it says we can't because "banned users can't send messages".... I don't believe either of us are banned, considering we don't do anything and this is the only time I've said anything to anyone (not to mention I'm able to talk on here) so yeah, whatever.
TuMama should have a streak of 13 now :/
