DpObliVion 09/12/18 7:01:20 PM #1:	First things first.... GoldSlime35 posted... Just an idea as an outside observer.... Have the first 4 or 5 levels (probably up to the high/low points one) be set for everyone, then let people do the remaining levels in any order they want. Everyone can choose their own path and attempt the more difficult levels in the order of their preference. If anybody gets "stuck" they can always attempt one of the other options. Also adds some strategy in deciding which order to go, or deciding week by week based on matchups. If nothing else, you'll likely learn how everybody ranks the difficulty of the levels, if you want to go back to a fixed order in the future. Or if it works, you could expand the order choice to cover all levels. I'd like to know more people's opinion on this. It does kind of change the foundation of the contest, but I don't think that's really a problem. A few ground rules: -Please say which level you are on when you post your pick. In most cases it will probably be obvious, but this makes it easier for me to record the picks. -The deadline to make a pick is at the start of the second set of games on Sunday afternoon (4:25 PM ET). That means no SNF/MNF picks after most all the games have started or finished. You cannot pick a game that has already started. -The deadline to answer the bonus question is at the start of games on Sunday (1 PM ET). 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. Schedule: (Favorites listed first; home team in CAPS) Thursday, September 13th Baltimore at MINNESOTA Sunday, September 16th WASHINGTON vs Indianapolis ATLANTA vs Carolina Minnesota at GREEN BAY LA Chargers at BUFFALO Houston at TENNESSEE PITTSBURGH vs Kansas City NY JETS vs Miami Philadelphia at TAMPA BAY NEW ORLEANS vs Cleveland LA RAMS vs Arizona SAN FRANCISCO vs Detroit New England at JACKSONVILLE DENVER vs Oakland DALLAS vs NY Giants Monday, September 17th CHICAGO vs Seattle Bonus Question: How many underdogs will win this week? --- LGM <cite>DpObliVion posted [p:908623170] in NFL Ladder...
