                  Here's a thought theres like 40 bowls. Side or total counts. All single bets that win count as 1. V bomb a plus or negative if implodes. Say 20 picks. Tiebreak total points in national championship game. Someone could post lines of all bowls. That way if someone falls asleep drunk could get in 20 picks. My 3 cents.
                  Oh if 5 or more winner pockets pot, 2nd keeps $25 entry.

                      Sorry I'm just chiming in Capper's. I've been on bivouac! I'm in. But how about the playoff games having extra value?? Maybe 2, for a Jan. 1st game, 4 for a semifinalist, 8 for picking the national championship. To hold everyone's interest thru the four weeks on the event a capper falls behind? And odds posted the day before or of the game? Or on Fridays and Tuesdays of the week of? And since it seems that the 'mod' "hatchet" has yet to be buried, how will we settle irregularities that are bound to occur? Are there ties allowed in Bowl Games, suspended games, acts of God, etc. Vegas Rules? And if someone doesn't honor our "commitment" at the end of the contest. Has anyone PM'd Bill to moderate the contest? And the latest thing about tiebreaker totals seems to be closest to exact total without going over.

                          I know it's late, on the "right coast"! But I gotta go out for the evening. My posts was just my suggestions. Realize I haven't been that active this fall. Since I did win the last contest, not counting the "mlb dog" travesty, I could call dibs and pick the rules, hunh! I'm okay with V-Bombs, I just think it should not be a -3 penalty if you lose it. Someone made that point clear earlier this year(not how it works in the WyzGy Contest). Cause you actually lose 4 points, not 3 if you miss it. Something like that. If there's 40 games, I would require at least 30 entries FBS Bowl Series games only or 75% of the games(whichever number is greater) TBD later on tonight. To help "BUILD" interest for our "lurkers"/readers as the contest goes along, but at the same time prevent someone coming in at the last minute and taking all the marbles(but they could still try). Members only of course! But still giving a chance to the latecomers and "snoozers" like myself to "KEEP UP"!
                          And sorry if I posted lines prematurely.
                          And Bill would probably say for the "regulars", you know who you are to get together and figure it out>
                          SO LET'S GO. PLEASE CHIME IN! I gotta go.
                          Later.
                          Good Luck Out There - Walkon!

                            not sure theres still interest,but if there is, maybe start it for last dozen or so games?/maybe give us time to find new players
