Just a couple days before the season starts, add yourself to the list now if you'd like to take part in the 2022 competition!

Dtrain took the win in 2022.

RULES:

-In the event of a Loss, the next person on the list has from the time the game ends in a Loss until 2 hours prior to the start of their game to start the game thread.

-In the event the Scheduled thread starter misses their thread, they are penalized 1 loss and their turn.

- In that case the On-Deck poster has from 1:59:00 before game time until 1:00:00 before game time to take over the thread at their OPTION, but it would use their turn in line for the exclusive opportunity to take that thread.

- At 1 hour until game time, the thread becomes open to the first (any) poster that posts a thread INCLUDING lineups. Two threads posted near the same time, the first one with lineups becomes official and it is a free turn, it does not erase your spot in line (even the on deck poster when it is within the 1 hour window). Note this is the only time lineups will be required to start the thread.

- A thread that is taken over within 1 hour of game time is a FREE TURN for the poster. It will count as a Loss if you lose, but you're taking the chance on getting a free winning streak out of it.

- Must be added to the list by 4/7 to be eligible

I'm always in! When and how are we submitting our win totals? Last year we just randomly shouted out win totals, like I want 92, but are we going to have a drawing to see who gets to pick first, or is it just first come first serve again?!

My thoughts were this was a thread to see who starts the game threads and whoever has the most wins as a game thread starter "wins".

vs

the other one where we predict how many wins

Worth repeating bpjs suggestion to just add yourself to the list on your post. It will make it easier to follow.
