        I hope they see this.

        Why do we do this? The real SuperContest just splits the money among the tied places. I thought we always try to go with what they do.

          I know. Posted earlier about being done, with 2nd and 3rd being split.
          winandwin doesn't post here beyond his picks, so not sure where he stands.

          Regardless, The Boys and Monroe Eaford kick ass in running this and they
          deserve a ton of credit for carrying all of us through the contest.

              Well, you know if either of us get one win you move to 3rd Place.

                    I know it's in the rules. Just asking why, even though I certainly don't have any skin in it. Guys usually get all worked up that we follow the real SuperContest, until we don't.

                    Why complicate it and go an extra week and risk pissing off a winner who figured it was over like the real SuperContest? Not suggesting breaking the rule this year, but it's a suggestion for next year that I expect most would approve since it is more in line with the real SuperContest.

                      This contest will be modeled as closely as possible after the "Las Vegas Hilton Super Contest"...........$50.00 entry fee.

                        This is just for kman and winandwin right. To figure out 2nd and 3rd. No need for anyone else to submit and can't move out of those spots (blackcat remains in 1st). I assume.

                          yes just for kman #1 and winandwin to determine the 2nd and 3rd place winner.

                            Maybe someone could email winandwin and let him know. Someone has his email since he emailed his picks in the last week or two. Just to be sporting about it. He may agree to split it and end it. Otherwise, it could go drag on through the SuperBowl, and you could still be tied.
