    As with all contests , we all need to really know the rules. I just re read the rules, and it looks like you have to make a pick within 7 days to maintain your streak, or it will be re set back to zero. For those on the leaderboard, it does state the date by which your next pick must be made , just to the right of where it shows how many picks you have correctly picked in a row. I suggest people just pick everyday, or within 3 days , since all the picks are difficult, they are no easy picks, and no easy days. For those trying to win the monthly, you have to pick everyday to stay in the race, unless you have a big lead and have clinched the prize.

    There are some picks on the streak leaderboard which are not going to beat the deadline such as one guy who picked NE on Sept 7th. This happens once in awhile too on the monthly contest. I am an expert on these contests as well as others too, It was not a recent revelation for me but is for those who make the costly mistake , and a reminder to others who already know, but forget to check before picking.

    I just won a pick and streak still says 1 when it should be 2. This is why stopped playing while back but picked it up again yesterday and already having problems

    Actually, sashahli, the person that made the pick for Sept 7, did so about 2 weeks ago. Although I do not agree with this strategy, they obviously made their pick within the time limit, and are now safe for 1 week after the 7th.

    Thank you so much Captain Obvious.  Nobody knew how this worked till you enlightened us.  One question......you rode one of those chopped-off short buses to school,  didn't you?
