We have had some discussion on changing a rule in the Valley Pick Em' Contest. Currently, we allow late entries, but you can only pick the games that haven't tipped for that round. In addition, you lose the availability of the highest number for each game you miss. For example, if you only get to the last (2) games of a round, you can only use a (2) and (1). The suggestion is that is too heavy a penalty, and that we should allow any value to still be used. Example on those (2) games, you could use any number between (1) and (5), just no repeat. I don't care, it's the boards contest. I just want the rules to be clear to all that participate. It started to come up in the last round, but both posters picked UE so it wasn't a factor.
Vote if you want to change it or leave it as is. Majority by tip off tomorrow will decide.

current rules should prevail throughout this season, you don't change rules in the middle of a contest. WAIT till next year

Vote if you want to change it or leave it as is. Majority by tip off tomorrow will decide. The rule change/clarification obviously can't be retroactive and hasn't given anyone an advantage to this point. So there is no reason why that rule can't be enacted immediately. Both humble and gracious, I want everyone including db1972 and municup14 to have a maximized chance to beat this year's heavy favorite and the only person who has ever won the Aces version of Valley Pickem'. It makes perfect sense to me that for each game missed before game time, the higher values in descending order are no longer available for the remaining games. That is a minor penalty but one earned by being forgetful and having a head full of expired Great Value pudding.
