    Favoriteson, banned for being too creative, noticed a hockey game that had an overload of experts on it, 15-0 or something like that...he wrote it up in the forum beforehand and sure enough, it lost... always looking for new and exciting ideas, we began notifying everyone of similar situations and lo and behold, those teams also lost in alarming fashion...wagerland began catching on and trying different variations, but we settled on a 10-1 or 10-0 situation no earlier than 30 minutes prior to game time, and we'd fade the experts... This situation only occured a few times a week, so we began searching for situations that would hit a similar percentage but one we could hold on to regardless of where it was 30 minutes prior, and declaring at 7-0 or 7-1 brought more games and the same success rate, only surprisingly they were not necessarily 'fades' but 'follows' as well... Chief Red Flag became obsolete at that point, yet still very much a sharpshooter, and the red flag alerts became, if not better, at least more plentiful... We fade some, follow others, and have only one mantra...Dont Fade the Nation...and this is our mascot... ||an_horse.gif' border=0> for everyone worried about exposure, it aint happening...the sleeping dog aint wakin' up... nb

    NB, is that what happened to Favoriteson. I noticed alot of our buddies got banned and knew they weren't touts or posted profanity on their posts. So if we post losers we can get banned also? Noone tells anyone to play a certain game only touts. I don't get it. I'll see you in a couple of months when Football season starts.

    nb, I know I've questioned you before, but whether I fade or follow in baseball is irrelevant. I would just like to know what the current model being followed is in MLB for sides and totals. I thought I knew, then things seemed to change and then change again. I just want to make sure what I am following. I like to track how these things do and even use them on wagerline contests. Thanks, nb, for contributing so much to this board.

    nobrainer... So when do you fade? When do you follow? Instead of waiting for 10-0 or 10-1..you are declaring flags at 7-0 or 7-1 now regardless of when it happens during the week? Just wanted to clarify...love the flags!
