I too thought it was 4 picks from among all sports & because I waited until PM to make my picks, I missed out on Arena & MLB. I am not complaining, because it is obvious that 100s (or 1000s) of members understood & got it right, but I read the rules & wonder how clear it was, as obviously several people made the same mistake.
I do like this type of contest, I just wish I didn't lose to picks in order to catch my error & get back on track. Anyway, I would now like to reread the rules & since people can join anytime, I am sure they are somewhere but for the life of me I can't find them either in this forum or the Contest's Main page. If you could please direct me it would be appreciated. Thanks!

"Participants are limited to a maximum of four picks per day, selecting any combination of sides or totals. Participants can select any game available on the Race game sheet."
Ok, I am not so mad at myself anymore, as I do think the rules were a bit hazy in this regard. I can see how some people got it, but also how many didn't. The above portion certainly sounds like there was more pick freedom than there actually is.
"Pick options will change as selections are made - you will be required to submit picks across various sports."
This part says multiple sports, but could've avoided a lot of confusion if it just came right out & said "only 1 pick per sport per day" .... that certainly would've been clearer. As I interpreted it, it could've just as easily referred to those days when there were less than 4 qualifying plays in any sport (like MLB on many Mondays & NBA on Thursdays), in which case you will be forced to make picks across multiple sports in order to make 4 qualifying plays. IN the end, the rules were simply poorly written & it caused a lot of confusion ... what else can I say?

Yea , but what the rules do not address is what happens when you cannot get your picks in because their server is down . I tried for an hour yesterday and had to give up and go to work .
