Call It Now Contest - December Leading Scorer: Deggett (18). @ Chicago entries due by 8pm Wednesday 

Post#1 » by UCFJayBird » Thu Nov 2, 2017 7:12 pm

New Board Contest - Name TBD - Tentatively called "Call it Now"

We're starting a new board contest here. The name is to be determined, so feel free to make suggestions. It's based off a game from a UCF forum called "Call it Now" so that's the name for now.

The basic rules are these.

    1. Each board member can submit an entry via the Google Form linked below for each game, answering 5 simple questions.

    2. You are only allowed ONE submission per game, so choose your answers wisely. The first one you submit is your official submission, no exceptions (the form requires all 5 questions to be answered, so there's no chance of accidentally submitting an incomplete form).

    3. Submissions are due by the listed game START time. Not Tip-Off which is usually 5-10 minutes after.
Get it right? Get a point. I'll keep a tally and will eventually have a running scoreboard so we can all see who is in the lead. Member at the end of the season gets bragging rights. If the game is popular maybe there will be a prize at the end.

I'll try and keep at least 3-5 games open at a time so you can pick ahead of time as well.

The questions may change every couple of games so feel free to offer up alternatives. If you have any other comments/questions/concerns, post them here.

Good Luck!

Man, 0-fer. I missed the Celtics game though.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I'll go ahead and make the stored results viewable, but if anyone complains I might restrict it.

I feel like if I picked Mario to sweep, and it actually happened, I should just win on the spot.
