I did a test run last season and it seemed to be successful during the few weeks I kept up with it. I intend to keep up with this one for the entire season, but it possibly won't be daily, so you'll need to check the board to see when it's going to be held. The thread will be locked depending on the amount of people that have participated since I have to count and add up all the correct picks.

Most correct picks will be worth 1 point unless noted otherwise.

I normally do a prize.

I plan on deciding later if a prize will be involved or if it's just going to be for fun.

This week is key because I probably won't offer 9 picks most of the time. I'll probably keep it around 4 or 5.

Ah, good point. I took #s 1 and 2 to mean who wins the regular season top seed in each conference.

HMFFL, are those playoff or regular season answers you're looking for, for numbers 1 and 2?

Hmm, I intended for it to be about the playoffs, but I can see how it can go both ways. I'll edit it to make it clear.
