    This is usually Detteam's horse to ride, but since I'm not sure if he's around, I wanted to make sure everybody knows about it. The Picks Game is located here:

    The Picks Game

    There are two games on the site: the regular picks game and the Survivor game.

    In the regular Picks Game, you must pick every game in a given week, or none. If you start picking games, any games you don't predict a winner for that week count as a loss. Let me repeat that:

    EVERY GAME YOU DON'T PICK A WINNER FOR COUNTS AS A LOSS!!!!

    You can sit out a week entirely and it won't count against you, or pick ALL the games each week. We play as a team, and we compete against the other groups for the best group average.

    Please register and join the "Pistons Forum" group if you want to play with. Please don't join if you're going to intentionally sabotage the group. We have enough people who are unintentionally sabotaging the group as it is (like myself :))

    Also, don't join our group if you have already joined another group. Don't retaliate against other groups by trying to join them and hurt their score. The owner of the Picks site has a very low tolerance for this stuff, even if it is due to a misunderstanding.

    Please talk trash about Darth Tater as much as possible. Because he is a weenie.


    The Survivor Game is every man for himself. Pick one team to win each week. If your team loses, you are out. 2008 was our heyday. We won the regular Picks Game and Nemo won the Survivor Game. This year we are primed for a return to dominance!

    Hey C.J.

    Who says I'm a weenie????? You better be nice to me because I know the owner of this place! (FWIW).

    I don't care for the way that Vinnie guy runs things (He even makes the bum nincompoop who runs this forum look good). so I'm not joining. I plan on joining the Yahoo one again, though.

    Good luck to you guys!

    Nice email he sent today. Obviously, he is referring to Detteam who wrote an email to him when somebody from the forum group did the fake last season.


    "One other note: Everyone playing is supposed to be an adult and I expect
    everyone to act like one. If I get any more whining emails or see someone
    registering a fake user to bring another group's average down, they or their group will be removed. Remember, this is supposed to be fun!"

    Yeah, I was pretty sure you were responsible for the "whining" comment. :MusicBigGrin:

    He's just jealous that we won two years ago AND that we still finished ahead of them last year even after getting crippled by those penalty points. :stirthepot:

    Is anyone organising a PF.com Survivor game on Yahoo this year? It's getting close to Week 1. I don't mind setting it up but didn't want to steal anyone's thunder. I think Detteam ran last years but haven't seen him round for a bit.

    We didn't run a PF.com picks game last year but would anyone be interested in that as well?

    This year they are giving out a trophy! Figures. Thanks a lot guys.:yellowprison:

    I spoke with detteam on the phone a couple days ago. We discussed the game and I didn't ask him directly, but he gave me no indication that he was going to run it.

    I'm in if you start it up. Please feel free to do so.
