NBBA Prediction Contest (sponsered by FML Radio)

I always thought it was fun to watch the NBBA and now that I'm playing in it I wanna do something fun for everyone.

I'm opening a contest for anyone who is interested. It will operate kind of like the B3 prediction contest does, but with the NBBA. Each gameday managers will select who they think will win in the following matchups. Points will be awarded based on accuracy and at the end of the season who ever has the most points will be awarded One Season of Supporter! (party)

Point System
- 1 Point awarded for selecting the winning team of a matchup
- 3 Points awarded for selecting the winning team of the 'Matchup of the Week'
- 2 Points awarded for calling the week a team will fall out of the cup (lose a point for an incorrect guess)
------
- ? Points awarded for choosing the Cup Winner
- ? Points awarded for choosing the League Winner

Rules
-Each manager is responsible for tracking their own score
-If a post is edited within 15 minutes of the matchups starting those guesses are void and no points will be awarded
-Teams must use one BYE guess each round
-NBBA Teams are allowed to participate but if they do their BYE guess must be their own match

I will make a post each week with the games so that it will be easy for everone to copy and paste with their guesses and their current point total. I will keep a scoreboard on post #2 as best I can.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Example Post
Yorkville BC @ In your face (BB)
My Pick: Yorkville BC by 11. Phyr is putting together quite a team and I think he'll be a team to watch this season

Flash Mashers @ Eugene Register-Guard
My Pick: BYE

Cup
My Pick: Upsyndrome will be the only team knocked out of the cup in round one becuz A-Dub sux
--------------------------------------
Points From Last Round: 0
Current Point Total: 0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The idea is to post one in between each game and tally your own points from the last round to keep your count rolling. For this example I'd get 3 points if I got the Yorkville guess right (game of the week), 0 points for my bye, and 2 points for calling that A-Dub would lose against a bot. So 5 points.

It should be fast to do, just copy the post for the round, fill in your guesses, and this can be a ~5 min thing.

Why can't we just play go fish or something? I don't even like following the NBBA and I'm in it.

Good question! No you can pick as many or as few teams to get knocked out as you want! Feel free to edit your guesses up until the games are about to start.
