Competition
1. Beat the Commish Champion
The player with the highest number of correct picks throughout the season wins the title.
Each correct winning pick will receive one (1) point. Points are not lost for incorrect picks. Picking every game, every week is essential.
2. Weekly Challenge
Each week, every player will go up against the commish's weekly score. One (1) point will be assigned for a win; half-point (0.5) to a tie; zero (0) for a loss.
This ensures that a bad week or two doesn't prevent players from keeping an interest in the game and seeing if they can beat beat the commissioner, Mr. Howard Mass, in the most number of individual weeks, regardless of their overall correct picks total.-
3. Top group
At the end of the season, we will see who did better between users and mods, by comparing the overall points total from the top three users with the top three mods.
