Quick thoughts; Game was fun. They somehow only made the Midgar section into a 30+ hour story adventure...and that wasn't always a good thing. Complained about it already, but the forced slowdown sections, weird unskippable transitions(especially bad in the final fight)-walk a few steps-cutscene and/or dialogue section-repeat again. It totals up to atleast a couple hours of just being forced to be slow. When the game is firing on all cylinders with the gameplay and battle while going through story beat to story beat the game is awesome. Shame it hampers that so often.


mccheyne posted...
Nice!

My main complaint about FF7R was the ghosts but who knows, maybe there's a pay off. Loved the battle system and a bunch of other stuff with the game. Got it on launch, and since the lockdowns had just started, I was able to hammer through it in not that long of a period of time.

Both of these bugged me a lot too, but I also didn't like the combat so overall didn't enjoy the game very much. I did like how they fleshed out the characters though.

Based on a quick scan, I think two picks, Han and Crescent's, depended on the outcome of the Bengals/Bills game as far as whether they advanced or not. The big thing here is that, with Koala at Level 10 and no one else at Level 9, he technically should have clinched a victory already unless I allow Crescent to advance to Level 9 due to having every other game correct

I think the best way to handle this is just to let them both advance (and open the door for a little drama in Week 18) but I am open to suggestions and opinions

A few ground rules:
-Please say which level you are on when you post your pick. In most cases it will be obvious, but this makes it easier for me to record the picks.
-The deadline to make a pick is before the official kick-off time of the game in question. You cannot pick a game that has already started. Some levels may have different deadlines, so read carefully.
-The deadline to answer the bonus question is at the start of games on Sunday (1 PM ET).
-Please don't edit your picks. If you'd like to change, please do so in a clearly labeled new post.
-I get my spreads from an online site providing lines from several sources, both in Vegas and out. Although these sources may continue to change their lines throughout the week, the ones I post in the topic are frozen and final for our purposes.
-You may use bonus points to skip any level after it is guaranteed you cannot pass it (at the end of the week's games, typically). You may only skip the level before I have posted the next week's topic. The price for skipping is in proportion to the level you are skipping. Skipping level 1 would take 1 bonus point, level 2 will take 2, level 5 will take 5. So on and so forth.

Explanation of Levels:

Level 1: Pick a winner. Simply pick one team to win their game. If they win, you go on to level 2.

Level 2: Pick an Underdog to win. You must pick a team that is an underdog to win their game. Underdogs will always be the team listed second.

Level 3: Level 3: 2 Games with Spread. Using the spreads I provide, pick 2 games. You must get both correct to move on. Spreads work by giving (-) or getting (+) points. The team that is the favorite to win "gives" points to the underdog. If you choose the favorite to win, they must still win after "giving" those points to the underdog. If you choose the underdog, you would be correct if they win the game after "getting" those points. For example, if a game says "Giants (-2.5) vs. Cowboys," if you pick the Giants, they must actually win the game by at least three points; if you pick the Cowboys, you would win if they actually won the game or lost by two points or less.

Level 4: 2 Game differentials. Pick two games and specify them to have a score differential of either 10+ or 5-. Make sure to specify which you pick, if you pick a score to be 10+ and the score ends up 3 apart, you do not advance. You do not need to pick the winner, as long as the differential is correct, it does not matter which team wins.

Level 5: 2 Over/Unders: I will now provide over/unders for each game. This number relates to the final score. You must choose 2 of the games and decide whether the final score will be OVER the number I provided or UNDER the number I provided. You must get both of these correct to advance.

Level 6: Pleaser: Pick one team to win using the spread, but with the pleaser, you lose 6 points on the spread. In other words, add six points in whichever direction makes it harder to win. For example, a (-2.5) spread becomes (-8.5), a (+3.5) becomes a (-2.5) spread, etc.

Level 7: QB, RB, WR: Pick 1 player to throw a touchdown pass, 1 player to rush for a touchdown, and 1 player to catch a touchdown pass. They must all be from different teams, and must also combine for at least 4 touchdowns in their respective positions. Typically you will be picking a QB, RB, and WR, but you may pick players from other positions to fill those roles (i.e. a TE or RB to get a receiving touchdown). You must make it clear what role you are picking the players for if it is not the standard QB/RB/WR or QB/RB/TE. If the player gets a touchdown in a different way (i.e. your rusher getting a receiving touchdown), it does not count.

Level 8: 5 Game Teaser: This is the opposite of level 6. Instead of losing 6 points on each spread, you actually gain 6 points on each spread. But you have to get all 5 games right to move on. So a team favored by 9.5 will now only have to win by 3.5, a team that is getting 2.5 points will now be getting 8.5 points.

Level 9: Rank 'Em: Pick starting quarterbacks and rank them in order of passing yards they will have this week, from most to least. You must get the entire order correct. TWO CHOICES: You may rank three quarterbacks whose team wins the game, OR any four quarterbacks. All selected quarterbacks must start their game. You must pick all players at once; you cannot make a partial pick to complete later.

Level 10: Obstacle Course: For this level, you are trying previous levels (although some of them are easier than before): You must SUCCESSFULLY pick one team to win, one team to win with the spread, one team to score 28 or more/14 or less, one over/under, one player to score a non-passing touchdown, AND quarterback to throw for at least 280 yards. You can't pick the same team more than once.

TIEBREAKER: This is where the bonus points you have acquired throughout the season come into play. For every bonus point you have, you may attempt a level you have previously passed. You can only "redeem" each bonus point once, but you may spread them out however you choose amongst the remaining weeks (oops). You cannot attempt the same level more than once in the same week (although you can attempt similar levels with the same pick, i.e. Level 3 and Level 6). For each level you pass, you will get points equal to the level number passed (i.e. if you submit a Level 4 pick and get it right, that's 4 points). The total accumulation of these points will be the tiebreaker between anyone tied at the highest level at the end of the season.

Schedule: (Favorites listed first; home team in CAPS)

Saturday, January 7th (4:30/8:15 PM ET)
Kansas City (-9.5) @ LAS VEGAS 52.5

I'm pretty sure what started this trend of hosts requiring unvotes was like, somebody mistakenly requiring them at some point and then everyone going along with it (may have been a Sultan game, even??)

This has been a thing long before Sultan began hosting. I just checked FFVII mafia from 2011 on the old Mafia board

Votes not made in this format will not be counted. You must unvote if you intend on changing your vote. New votes won't count if you don't unvote
