2014-2015 #SLOE Pick 'Em - Sim 7 - All Star Edition

[garbageman]

I guess Sim Vegas had already had dibs on the All Star Game, so I'm going to change course here. Let's see what I can pull out of my ass...hmm, 10 days with games, Valentine's Day. Winning Couples. That should be good enough.

Sure, so, uh, each day, pick two teams to win. If both teams lose, you get one point. If one team wins and one loses, you don't get ANY points. If both teams win, you get 10 points. You can't pick any team more than once, so you have to pick 20 different teams. If you pick a team multiple times, that day will result in a loss of one point no matter what happens.

You can see my official entry at the bottom of this post as an example.

As always, EVERYONE can play every week. The best score from your division will be ranked against the best score from the rest of the divisions, so participation can only help your division's cause. And remember, you'll get points at the end of the season for having good attendance. Here's how the participation points break down.

Participate in 11+ Pick 'Ems: 5 points
Participate in 10 Pick 'Ems: 4 points
Participate in 9 Pick 'Ems: 3 points
Participate in 8 Pick 'Ems: 2 points
Participate in 7 Pick 'Ems: 1 point
Participate in 6 or fewer Pick 'Ems: No soup for you

Furthermore, if your division has the most cash at the end of Pick 'Em, you get 5 points...UNLESS YOU DON'T PARTICIPATE IN ANY PICK 'EMS. Here's the standings after week 1.

4th Place: Midwest - $1150
3rd Place: Atlantic - $1700
2nd Place: Pacific - $2150
1st Place: Central - $2800

For this sim, we're ramping the prize totals up again!

1st Place: $1100
2nd Place: $700
3rd Place: $300
4th Place: That this video is still just as relevant as it was before I had to redo Pick 'Em: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jWHffIx5E

I was planning on doing a VERY similar game for the mini-game for sim vegas. Instead of making y'all do it twice, anyone who is in the sim-vegas tournament will have their ballots for this count for that as well. Josh and I will need to coordinate better next season, but I call dibs on this year's playoffs

I'll modify mine.
