I wouldn't expect anyone to accept it either. the thing was- I had no idea there were early games this Friday. Otherwise I wouldn't have bet at all on them. Regardless- I was ignorant of the result and this is a friendly game with no prizes for the winners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Aussie_Wing feels its unfair for any vote to be counted, I'm sure he will say for those few people certain games will not be counted due to timing of the games, and it'll be ok. People will just have to beware of which time the games start, so it doesn't happen again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People will just have to beware of which time the games start, so it doesn't happen again. It'd be nice if in the future the Friday game start times could be thrown up with the games on the first page. That way people who aren't expecting a game to start at noon on a Friday (how often does that happen!?! I'm guessing it's because the US had a holiday this weekend? There was no holiday here, though) have a warning that they might be attacked for mistaking start times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And with so many games to add up I might have made a mistake here or there, so check your score and let me know if I made an error. As for the picking of games when they've started, I didn't have a problem with it. Drake_Marcus, you're right in saying that it isn't often that there are Friday afternoon games and I see quite a few people posted their picks when games had already started. So no issues, I espcially understand this week why people might have been late with their picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was I the only one that did that? I remember last season there was a running gag that whenever I picked against the Wings, they'd win. This weekend though, picked 'em to win against Columbus, lose against Boston and end up having my best weekend of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
