I need to put an end to this ridiculous banter of why are there deadlines in this contest!!!
Back in 2008 there was a deadline of:
DEADLINE 1230 PM EST SUNDAY - NO EXCEPTIONS - POSTING FORUM TIME!!
Do search of the thread "NFL GAME OF THE WEEK CONTEST - $1500" that was being run by Jeff (it's around page 72 as of today).
In 2009 there was no deadline, but also no totals.
In 2010, we had a spirited discussion on why we should have a deadline of one hour before kickoff each day. The concensus was to have the deadline to draw traffic to Bettorsworld by posting picks early.
There is a contestant this year that participated in the 2010 contest and had absolutely no issue posting on Sundays.
As always, we open up the rules for this contest for discussion before each season. If anyone adds wants add comments to existing rules or make new rules, then is the time.
If anyone can add valuable imput on why there should be no deadline and how it will benefit Bettorsworld and add traffic to the website, please let us know and we all will consider it.
In the meantime, rules do not change during the season. I don't see the NFL considering scrapping the kickoff rule from 35 because there are too many touchbacks from kickoffs.
