Hey, if you're stupid enough to put your picks up 5 days out I got no sympathy for ya.

It was cheating. I got that then too. I just didn't really give it much thought because I didn't think it was a big deal considering the stakes and the crowd here, and I didn't figure I'd win shit anyway. I backed out of the pool, and apologized to those that got upset with it. That is pretty much all I can do about it.

And I'm probably not good enough at cards or pick'em to win.

Anyway, I promise not to look at (for the purposes of adjusting or making my picks) anybody else's picks.

We are all good bro. That shit is forgotten.

Pardon me for inserting logic into the discussion, but you guys really think it's a winning strategy to copy exactly the same picks as the person in the lead?

Understand that if they're ahead of you, and you have the exact same picks, it is 100% impossible for you to ever catch up to them. You're running in place.

That's why my strategy is to drop out and give up with self-loathing dejection around week 8.

My thoughts exactly.

Copying the leader does nothing for you. I thought JR was doing something shadier than just copying WE!!!'s picks.

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #44 on:** August 28, 2013, 11:24:37 AM »

Wait. You mean copying the leader's picks isn't good strategy?

If I had a nickel for every time I've been doomed by my own logic, I would have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice.

He wasn't copying his picks he was making adjustments based on what WE!!! had picked. WE!!! was bothered by it, I called JR out about it, the whole situation got over blown.

Bottom line...

Doesn't matter that was last year...apparently no one else gives a fuck so, do whatever the fuck y'all want for all I care. The rules are there are no rules...except

don't forget to make your picks before Thursday night.

I'm just explaining counselor. Like I said WE!!! brought it to my attention, I called him out. He apologized.

This year there are no rules, do whatever you want. It isn't even my game. Talk to AUTR

I've decided it's in my best interests to keep my picks written down right here next to my computer, for safety's sake. I'll give you my score at the end of the season.

Vandy Vol · « **Reply #49 on:** August 28, 2013, 11:36:52 AM »

What if you look at someone else's dick while making picks? Is that allowed?

I could have sworn I read somewhere that is where you like to be! Just trying to help a sister out.

And you say we never listen!

No, it's not. However, by accident due to posting from my phone, I made that mistake one week, and, well, the rest is history.

Yeah, and with your back and knees, it's a good thing that only take about three minutes.
