    In the interests of simplicity, less work, and ease of future champion reference, there will be no playoff scoring.

    Also, if you know anyone you would like to invite, let me know and I will give you the link and password.

    Holy crap, I haven't played in years, and I'm unsure whether I'll be able to commit.

    I signed in but the rest of my team has been MIA for years. Are we still doing teams?

    As for playoff scoring: can we use it as (an extra) tiebreaker?

    We are not still doing teams, that broke up quite some time ago. If interest picks up enough for them in the future (or now), I'd be willing to do it.

    There's been only been one tie in the 9 years there are records for and a bunch of close calls. I'm not seeing what CBS uses to break ties in the final standings and there are no options for it in the rules set up (only weekly ties). I'm fine with tied champions, personally.


    Also, I have updated the first post to reflect the new deadline which seems to have been implemented without my knowing it (or I did it and don't recall ), which is 5 minutes before each game as opposed to the original 1 hour before the first game of each day. I like this setting as it allows for procrastinators, the forgetful, and the busy to not be unduly punished for their flaws/hectic schedules.

    Snazzy new interface. Of course I don't like it.
    The OT at APOLYTON is like watching the Special Olympics. Certain people try so hard to debate despite their handicaps.

    Either the changes aren't significant enough to bother me or I don't remember the old version well enough for the changes to bother me.

    Hmm, CBS says I don't have access to league, and there is no place to enter a password?

    Then he either:
    Didn't get it
    Hasn't done it yet
    Or maybe the email confirmation went to your junk mail
    or I have no clue

    Well... worst case, he doesn't see it before the game starts, and you take a single loss, but can still play.
    In the grand picture of things, one loss is nothing and shouldn't be a problem.

    It is done. Also, back in the olden days of miss a game-miss the week, I won with a missed week.

    I've embraced missing at least 1 week as a ritual.

    We have, as of this post, 12 active participants. Sloww and Tubes lead over everyone that did not see Dallas' miraculous upset and/or is going to make the rest of the week's picks.

    I always go in with high hopes and end up missing a few weeks and dropping into the bottom 5.
