Rainout pick moved to Tuesday on the U-Race?

Guys,

An error was made on our part when first dealing with the postponed Boston game.  To correct the issue and ensure the Ultimate Race rules were followed we had to make some adjustments.

Some users were initially permitted by the system to enter another pick for today after the Boston game was marked as postponed. This violated the Contest rules, specifically:

"In the event of a postponed, suspended, cancelled, or removal of a event for any reason (Rain Delay, Act of God, Death, Re-Schedule, etc) participants will not be able to submit an alternate pick for that day as a replacement."

Some users had their selection accidentally moved to Tuesday which was wrong.  This has been corrected as well, the game was moved back to today on their accounts and treated as a PPD game, and any extra pick they made after their initial 4 picks were voided. They will be able to make a regular 4 selections on Tuesday.

In closing, everything was worked out to ensure the contest proceeded under the official rules.

If you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail us.

We apologize for the confusion.

Thanks,

Rizz

 

Completely disagree...  At least cleveland is playing if you pick them and found out that Lebron is not, so still a chance to win, but the Boston/TB game is not playing at all.  I don't think you'd like it if you were in first place and that was the game that decided your loss because it was postponed.

Still boils down to doing a little Research.Not that hard to check weather forecast before a game.

I think that when you pick a game that gets rained out, you should get pwnd.

 

ok, i guess there are always two sides to a story but let me end on this. if you asked me to go in a game with you both dropping a G on the game and you said " all the stats are perfect for it" ....after the game i say we lost because it snowed 6" and we had the over. now your quote was "atleast they are still playing and have a chance"..............thats bad capping my friend, covers, the stat masters they are (they include too much bs stats) on the one page actually shows the weather for the game!!! well best of luck in the race hope we all make it to the top of the leaderboard, again!

 

Bad capping is when you know it will snow and still take the game over.  You cannot bad capping when a game is postponed.  Was it bad capping for those who pick Anaheim on Thursday after the death of Nick Adenhart?  You can only bad capping when a game is played, not when it's not.
