SIM VEGAS - GAMBLE-A-THON MINI GAME 3 - PLAYOFFS EDITION - DUE SATURDAY 6/10 - 5pm
Posted: Fri Jun 09, 2017 12:27 pm
Hi friends!
This will work just like the previous mini games - if you didn't participate in the pre-season or all-star sim vegas YOU CAN STILL PARTICIPATE. Just deduct 1 point from your banks, and you're in for this contest. If you participated in the original one, YOU'RE ALREADY ENTERED!!
We're going to do this NCAA tournament style, but with a twist (of COURSE there's a twist - does anyone KNOW me??) You'll pick the entire tournament as if submitting an NCAA tournament bracket, but in addition to which team you have winning, you'll also need to say how many games you have them winning in. Each correctly picked series winner in the first round will earn you 5 points minus however many games you were off on the series, second round is worth 10 points minus 2 times however many games you were off, third round is worth 15 points minus 3 times however many games your were off, and so-on. Any series winner you pick wrong, you get 0 points, though if it goes to 7 games, you do get a consolation point (after all, you were SO close).
For example, if you picked the Hawks over the Cavs in 4 in round one, and L_Hamilton manages to squeak out a game to lose in 5, you'd get 4 points for that series. Anyways - just post your picks, and let me worry about the scoring!
For formatting purposes, this is my official entry:
Round One:
Suns in 4
Jazz in 5
Warriors in 5
Nuggets in 5
Bulls in 6
