I have no idea what the 16 is for or how to weight the games. WTF?
You allocate points depending on how confident you are in the outcome. For example I put 14 points on the Hawks because I am sure they will beat the Rams but I only put 1, 2 and 3 points on my three upset picks. It is optional to do it but dumb not to rearrange your points to reflect your confidence level.

No, you have to assign every number from 1-16. If you don't do it, then it will do it for you in the order the games are listed.

If you look at the standing you have 16 points and fish heins/pharmabro only has 6 because he wisely didn't bet the farm on a crazy upset. lol

Lol, I better move some games around then. Do you lose points or just not win points when you are wrong? Clearly I haven't been paying much attention!

For ever game you win you get those points that you assigned to that game. Zero points for games you lose. Who ever has the most total points for the week after MNF wins the week.

It will be very clear on Sunday.

Okie Dokie Fanokie. I get it now. I just thought this was a straight pick-em pool. I would have weighted that upset about 4 on confidence level lol.

LOL. I'm fully onboard now with weights and saved new numbers. That should fuck me up. Should have just left it all random for a week and seen what happened.

Thanks Lions! :lol:
