    As you know, we're now offering $100 to the first place winner and $250 from BetUS.com as well.</p>

    This week's NFL Pick Em winner is Kid Chocolate.</p>

    This week's NCAA Pick Em winner is LT7.</p>

    Congratulations to both!</p>

    <font size="5"><font color="#ff0000">Next week it could be YOU!</font></font></p>

    Kid Chocolate and LT7 have been contacted via PM to arrange their prizes.</p>

    Note: Nobody can win the contest two weeks in a row - if KC or LT7 wins again this week, we'll award the prize to the 2nd place finisher.</p>

    Remember, play early and play often! [​IMG]</p>

    This is an alert to many of you who've played in the NFL Pick Em this week. A lot of you have only picked in 13 games (there's 14 total). You should visit the contest page and assure you've made picks in all the games for the best chance to win.</p>

    http://sportstwo.com/NFL/PickEm</p>

    Also, the fewer people that play the NCAA Pick Em, the better the chance to win. So you might want to get in on the game:</p>

    I think we may want to consider restricting winners to once per month or something like that, so other people can get in on the prize money. It wouldn't affect the current winners, but might be something we start next week.</p>

    Comments?</p>

    I thought you said you can't be a winner two weeks in a row? (somewhere in a different thread)</p>

    I don't think we did anything official. Question is, "is it a good idea?"</p>

    It doesn't make a difference to me, as I pay the $100 either way...</p>
