Statement: No participation points or best picture this time. In fact, you don't need to submit a picture. Just an answer in word format is fine (actually two answers as don't forget to tell me how many points you are risking). Question: In the Pelicans game who will hit at least 100 points? A.) The Trail Blazers only, B.) The Pelicans only, C.) Both teams, or D.) Neither team Rules: Pick your answer and pick how many points you are wagering. You can bet up to however many points you currently have. So for example if you have 211 points you could bet that much or just say bet it all. If you bet that many and are wrong then you go to zero though so there is some strategy involved on how much to bet at times (Similar to Jeopardy).
This is the Final Over/Under of the Regular Season so someone is about to win! There is a prize generously donated by @Fonzthecpt1 Max amount of points you can bet: KeepOnRollin - 276 UncleCliffy'sDaddy - 275 SlyPokerDog - 269 riverman - 261 BoBoBREWSKI - 260 Chris Craig - 247 RipCityDSCPL - 244 Fonzthecpt1 - 243 e_blazer - 232 theprunetang - 211 Orion Bailey - 204 BlazerWookee - 175 Shaboid - 171 selloutking - 134 Dougnsalem - 115 P.S. We discussed doing a Final Jeopardy-type answer but I think that needs more thinking through and a practice game first. We could go to that next year.
Well I officially can't win, this is why I think jeopardy style would have been cool. Chances are it would have happened anyways, but at least it wouldn't have been price is right style.
That is good and well except for the fact that the Pelicans are going to get destroyed. I never said I was looking to throw all my points away!
I'm not a fan of betting points. Chances are you wont get a winner who has picked the most correct all season long.
Really I have the most to lose. And I am ok with that. I don't need to win. It is just fun to play. But it certainly can evolve. We will discuss early next year how to do it next time around. I like Fonz's suggestion that we don't know either someones answer and/or amount of points (like Jeopardy) to get keep it interesting but we could also do something like were people could only bet the amount of points that the last place person has. So in this case 115 points. A lot of options...
