Posted April 16, 201015 yr comment_12012 I didn't even realize that the NHL Playoffs had started. I added a bracket contest anyway. The deadline is Saturday afternoon. So if you want you could wait until closer to that time where you know how some of the teams have done.
April 23, 201015 yr Author comment_12025 lol we all got the first game wrong so even with a late deadline nobody getting a perfect bracket. Of course no shocker that we all assumed a top team would beat one of the lower ones.
April 25, 201015 yr Author comment_12028 I don't follow hockey much either. And by the way I obviously meant first series rather than just first game. In the future I'm tempted to add in a feature where it tells how many games it took them to win, but I don't know if that's so necessary anyway.
April 25, 201015 yr comment_12029 Jason , No I don't think that info will be of any good. I do like the updates tho. Take care, Mike
April 27, 201015 yr Author comment_12032 Whoa I have no clue why I picked Boston, but I've now got 5 straight series correct after that first one we all missed. This NHL contest is one of those tricky ones... because see now I have washington and boston lined up properly for the next round, but others will have things lined up differently since the NHL re-seeds. That's the tricky situation where I didn't know whether people should be given credit or not since they would be on the wrong line even if you pick the winner next round. But I ended up deciding it should count because in the NCAA Tourney your teams may be playing someone other than you thought and you still get that correct regardless of who they beat. In the future, by the way, I'm adding a feature where you can have more points given for correctly picked upsets. In this case since Boston was a big upset I would have got bonus points with the new feature.
May 12, 201015 yr Author comment_12041 If the Penguins win later tonight then Guy Guyerson, myself, and Betterguy are all still in the race. If they LOSE the game Guy Guyerson has already won the contest even before the next couple rounds. So the only way I can win is if Pittsburgh wins tonight then loses next series AND if Chicago loses the next series. Either way a win tonight by Pittsburgh keeps us all in it into enxt round.
May 24, 201015 yr Author comment_12050 Well Guy padded his lead and now the point totals are final until he gets the jackpot once the playoofs are completed.
