Go ahead and place your bet if you want. It’s not like you’re short on cash anyway.☕

I'm looking to team up with you for the Super Bowl.☕

driftingotter47 said:I don't think we lost people because of those $33. Honestly, there isn't even a huge turnout now because nobody visits this forum anymore—it's basically dead 🤷

Whatever, you're the moderator. Do your job and revive this forum.☕

driftingotter47 said:Why did they scrap the entry fee? That setup was great, $17 especially since splitting it per person meant the prize pool stayed massive. 🤷

I'm definitely signing up though.

Look, we were doing $100 per head and barely had 10 people signed up. This tournament is going to run on a more communal, shared-cost system this time around. Maybe we'll go back to the old way later, but for right now, this works better for me for a bunch of different reasons.

Core features of the seventh edition of Super Bowl VII:

Number of players: 8 - 32
Tournament format: Group stage + knockout stage
Minimum odds per pick: 1.80
Prize pool: Stjepan Radić ($200 cash prize)

GENERAL RULES FOR SUPER BOWL

1) Odds are sourced exclusively from DraftKings sportsbook

2) In the event of a tie, the average odds of the winning picks will be rounded to three decimal places.

3) You are not allowed to bet on the exact same game as your opponent—no hedging against them. Duplicate matchups in head-to-head duels aren't permitted; essentially, only one bet can be placed per specific event.

4) Betting on player props (like over/under points or goals) counts as a separate type of bet. It is possible to bet on multiple players from a single game, provided your opponent hasn't already claimed them.

5) If a game is postponed or marked as void, a player may submit a replacement pick if there is still time left in the current round. If the round deadline has passed, it will be recorded as a loss for that pick.

6) We ask that players submitting their picks one by one always quote all their picks for that round so that all 3 picks for the round are clearly visible in the final post.

1. GROUP STAGE

Participants are split into groups containing 4 or more teams. The format is a double round-robin where everyone plays each other. The top two teams from each group advance to the knockout stage.

The group stage consists of 6 or more rounds. Each round lasts 3 days.

SCORING AND GROUP SYSTEM

Each head-to-head duel lasts 3 days, during which competitors must submit 3 picks. Picks can be submitted all at once or individually. A win in any duel earns 3 points, a draw earns 1 point, and a loss results in 0 points.

In the event of a tie in total points between two teams in a group after all 3 rounds are completed, the following tiebreakers apply:

1) higher number of winning picks
2) higher average odds
3) winner of the head-to-head matchup
4) whoever was the first to submit all 9 picks

2. KNOCKOUT STAGE

Each head-to-head match lasts one week and is played over 3 rounds. The first round runs from DAY 1-DAY 3 (00:00 - 23:59), the second from DAY 4-DAY 5 (00:00 - 23:59), and the third from DAY 6-DAY 7 (00:00 - 23:59).

During each round, a competitor is required to post 3 picks within the designated timeframe. You can post your picks all at once or one by one.

RESULTS

Each correct pick earns 1 point, making the maximum possible score 9.

The winner is whoever gets more successful picks to advance to the next round. If both players end up with the same number of hits, the tiebreaker goes to:

1) the one with the higher average odds on their winning picks.
2) the one who posted all 3 picks for the last 3 rounds first.

Honestly, this sounds like something a toddler would say in preschool.☕

shadowjackal82 said:I bet Kimberly Rodriguez51 would get along great with the asylum crowd. 😳

Fine. Whatever. We'll just tie him up to a bomb so he can watch and suffer. I'll let you know when we figure out his specific role in the plan.☕

Kimberly Rodriguez51 said:I always see people asking "which forum user is judging my character" 😳

Ethan Jones5, are you two actually hanging out or what? If not, you really should. 😁

What makes you say that?🍿

Charles Bailey2 said:It's B, not K.🤦
Chris Flare.

Whatever, man, Chris K. doesn't matter either. Seriously, when he starts rambling, it's like trying to listen to an old tractor engine struggling to start—you can't understand a single word he's saying.☕

But yeah, this one might actually work for him.☕

Charles Bailey2 said:What would Chris K. say? "He's standing there like a damn statue!" 😁

I don't know who Chris B. is, but the guy seems pretty sharp.☕

It honestly never crossed my mind while reading this thread because whenever someone asks how much of a mess I am, that’s usually my go-to answer. Okay, fine, I'm lying—I have constant internal debates about it, but honestly, who cares?☕

Look, Hannah Hughes57, I might be a little taller than him, so I haven't quite reached "barrel" status yet, but trust me, it's definitely in the works.☕

That hungover wreck. I'm basically looking at my former self—right when I started letting the beard and hair go wild and the scale was creeping up. But man, he’s got the exact same pathetic personality as I used to☕

My condolences☕

I reported this post already, but since nobody seems to be responding, I figured I’d post it here too.

It’s about this username I’ve been using lately.

Basically, I changed my email address, and now my profile won't activate. I tried using different emails to get it working, but no luck.

I even attempted to just start a brand new profile from scratch, but that’s failing too. Most of the time the activation email actually shows up in my inbox, but no matter what I try, the profile just refuses to activate.

Henry Evans10 said:Maybe there's some money involved here.

I had a bad feeling about her; the way she was hovering around Abic seemed off.
Now we see what her real motive was.

But hey, makeup, designer clothes, cosmetic surgery—all that stuff isn't cheap. It makes you think.☕

But Abic isn't budging. He’s figured out he’s about to get played.☕

Henry Evans10 said:Honestly, I haven't got a clue about 🙂

😁

Neither do I, but everyone’s been talking absolute trash about it since yesterday, so here I am typing.☕

Henry Evans10 said:He doesn't give a damn, he's just drafting... and talking about misses... who's missing? 😳

Eli is clearly making money off these fantasy leagues. Every single forum and thread is buzzing about it since yesterday—there’s gotta be some serious cash involved if everyone's talking.🤷

You're lying, I can see it in your tone☕

loneskipper77 said:Why are you guys ruining this thread with all this spam? ☕

Instead of giving you an actual recipe for a classic meat stew, they're just standing around rambling about nothing.☕

Richard Sanders7 said:🤣 You’ve gotta try everything. That’s what my buddy tells me. ☕

How are you supposed to know if something works if you haven't actually tried it? Makes sense to me.☕

Richard Sanders7 said:Man 😢is it though?

The goats were definitely better, but he was probably just too young back then to know any better.☕
