3A Downlow Pick'em Game...2006 Edition (merged)

[STANG RED]

Maybe I'm just looking at it wrong, but why didnt 3MenAggie get the bonus point for the R1 game? They seemed to be the closest to the actual score by a long shot. What am I not seeing?
It looks like that was rewarded to the team closest to the average score, instead of the actual score. Is'nt it supposed to be closest to the actual score?

The way that the bonus point is determined is taking the difference in the scores between the two teams vs your pick difference. Example.

Nameless had Burk 28 IP 24...so Burk by 4 points

Actual score...Burk 13 IP 7...so Burk by 6 points

That gives them a 2 point difference off of the actual score.

At first, I thought about doing a sum of the points and that would have given 3MenAggie the win as they had 28 points and the total sum was 20 points. However...think if they had picked the score as Burk 20 IP 0. Yes they would have been exact on their score...but then they were guessing that Burk would win by 20 when in reality they only won by 6. Think of your picks as you are "setting the line" for the game...and then the bonus point is given for how accurate your pick was. Does that make sense? I know I slacked last week and didn't post the bonus point process. I need to post that as well as the playoff structure. I'll try and write it all out tonight.

Ok I see what your doing now, but it has one glaring flaw in it (please dont call me AJ!!!). Lets say someone picked Burk to beat IP 56 to 50. They hit the spread dead on, but didnt even come close to the actual score. Do they get the bonus anyway??? Am I still not understanding?

Yeah. There are defintely flaws with doing it either way...I just felt this one was "more accurate" without getting things off into a sports betting direction of dealing with over/unders and stuff like that. Sports betting has no place in amateur athletics IMO. So if somebody thinks that Burk is a 3 points better than IP...it doesn't matter if they think that they are 50-47 better or 10-7 better. However, a team DOES receive an additional 3 point bonus if they guess a game with the correct score (4 pts instead of 1 or 5 pts instead of 2) for both teams! Plus...if you had the correct score then it's likely you would also get the extra bonus point. So "in theory" you could get a total of 26 points out of the 5 games! ;)

Take this for what it's worth Adidas, but I have an idea to bounce off of you. It just seems to me like we should be looking for picks that are closest to the actual score, and not closest to the actual spread. Here is my idea:
1. Obviously you have to pick the correct winner first, no matter the score.
2. Subtract the lowest number from the highest, from each teams winners score to the actual winners score. Record that value.
3. Subtract the lowest number from the highest, from each teams looser score to the actual looser score. Record that value.
4. Add these two numbers together. The team with the lowest number is the one closest to the actual score.
In this case, 3MenAggie would have an 8, and Nameless would have 32. Obviously 3MenAggie was much closer to the actual score.
Work out a few scenarios and I think you'll see what I mean. Anyway, like I said, take it for what it's worth. But please take a few minutes to consider it anyway.

Stang...I am perfectly comfortable with the way Adidas is tabulating the bonus ;) Unless of course....your way benefits our team in the next round... :D

Sorry I didn't get back to this last night. I didn't have internet at home so I couldn't do much. It was hard...but I got through it. ;)

The way that you are describing it is exactly how I initially scored it in my "unofficial results" from Saturday. The reason I changed was this:

There are 3 possible things that can potentially go into making a pick. You may choose to consider any number of them.

1. Pick the winner
2. How much will they win by?
3. How many points can the winning and losing teams score?

Part 1 is what we've been doing since the inception of the game. Part 2 is the way that the bonus structure is setup. Part 3 is the other way that I could have structured the bonus point.

The reason that I chose to have the bonus point be based on "how much will a team win by" is because that is how we discuss games already. If somebody came up to me and said, "Hey what do you think will happen in the Texas and Nebraska game this w/e?," I would answer, "I think Texas wins it by 7-10 points." You typically don't hear people say, "I think Texas will win the game 27-20," as they might come across as arrogant and "all-knowing." We tend to answer those questions by stating how many points better we think Team A is over Team B.

Also, we already have a system in place that gives you 3 bonus points if your team makes a correct score pick. By adding this additional bonus structure, the game now offers an opportunity for points to be awarded for all 3 things that can go into making a pick.

Btw...the bonus structure wasn't my idea. It was suggested by Bullaholic as a way to liven up the game and give teams a chance to make a move from week to week. I bet he wishes he hadn't suggested it now as his team lost it's stranglehold on the top spot! ;)

[vet93]

It would be interesting to see what the team totals would have been had the bonus been applied from the first week. By the way...I like the idea of the bonus points...it adds spice to the game and rewards teams for getting close to the actual point spread!

OK...I got bored and figured it up going back to Week 1 (didn't have the Week 0 scores in my sheet). Bull's idea would REALLY be hurting his team as the All Seeing Guys only had 1 bonus point and they earned that in Week 5. Here are the current standings along with how many bonus points they WOULD have had if the game had started in Week 1.

Nameless 41 + 1 = 42
AllSeeing 40 + 1 = 41
FUBAR 38 + 2 = 40
Team Carter 38 + 7 = 45
Guys/Girls 36 + 3 = 39
BASSHOLES 35 + 4 = 39
Dyslexia 34 + 1 = 35
Patagonian 33 + 3 = 36
3MenAggie 33 + 2 = 35

So the new rankings would have looked like this...

1. Team Carter - 45 points (up 4 spots)
2. Nameless - 42 points (down 1 spot)
3. All Seeing - 41 points (down 1 spot)
4. FUBAR - 40 points (down 1 spot)
5(t). Guys/Girls - 39 points (no change)
5(t). BASSHOLES - 39 points (no change)
7. Patagonian - 36 points (up 1 spot)
8(t). Dyslexia - 35 points (down 1 spot)
8(t). 3MenAggie - 35 points (no change)

[Adidas410s]

You’ve heard me make mention of a 3ADownlow Pick’em Game Playoffs…well here is how it’s all going to work. We have 9 times…and in the spirit of the UIL we are going to ensure that all 9 teams make the playoffs! ;).

Structure
- The playoffs will start in Week 11 with the #8 and #9 teams facing each other.
- Teams 1 through 7 will still turn in picks as has been done every other week. For these 7 teams, Week 11 is the last week to “jockey for position” before starting the playoffs in Week 12.
- Beginning in Week 12, the bracket will look like this:
http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/9929/playoffbracketys2.jpg
- The playoffs will run through Week 14…the last possible week that there will be 5 games to pick from.
NOTE: For the playoffs, a mandatory wildcard game will be announced each week and all teams will use that as their 5th game.
NOTE 2: As this is the playoffs and everything is being done in a head-to-head format, there will be no use of the bonus point system.


Scoring/Tiebreakers
If teams have different picks, then the team with the correct pick gets the point. The first team with 3 points advances to the next week. If the teams both choose the same winner, the following tiebreak system will be used:
- Closer to actual point spread of game (this is the current “bonus point” system)
- Closer to actual score of winning team
- Closer to actual score of losing team

For example, if both teams turn in the exact same pick in Region 1, I will revert back to your pick in the Region 1 game from Week 11 and again use the same tiebreaking system if both teams chose the same winner. After that, it would move to Week 10, 9, and so on until the tie is broken. The same thing would apply if it reverts to Region 2, 3, or 4.

If you turn in the exact same pick on the wildcard game, it will then go to whichever region that game stems from. For example Wylie/Decatur would be Region 1, Gilmer/T-LE would be Region 2, etc.

As always, please feel free to ask any questions that you may have and I will do my best to get them answered. If there is anything that I haven’t covered in these rules please let me know ASAP so that it can be addressed before the playoffs start so as to minimize heartache later on. Thanks guys…and that other team! ;)

I like this it keeps everyone involved a little longer....I actually like the idea of having it be like fantasy football where you play a different pick em team every week and you have records not that thepoint system is bad its just i realized i like this idea when i saw this thread and it just now dawned on me lol

[AggieJohn]

So let me get the laymens terms here....

Head to head total of five points for grab from each region

Chose your pick, if it's the same then we're using the bonus point system to tie break that...

last two teams play each other in 5 weeks....

no....LHPM will still be posting GotW for each region which gives you 4 games. The 5th game will be a w/c game that will be chosen by Russ and I and it will be used across the board. There are 5 games...the team with the correct pick gets 1 point. If both teams turn in the same winning team...then read the tiebreaker system for an explanation.

One thought though is that it would be A LOT more time consuming if it was head to head every week as often times both teams would make the same picks and then I would have to go into multiple tiebreakers every week. The point system is easier in the regular season.

Two things of note...somebody double check and make sure I'm right on the bonus point for All Seeing. At home, I had them tied at 47 points with Nameless and nobody got more than 7 points in the round. However, this morning I have them at 8 points. Please double check that one for me.

NOTE: For purposes of determining playoff seeding, if two or more teams are tied for the 8th place (as we have right now with 3MenAggie and BASSHOLES) then whoever had the higher score in Week 10 will be awarded the 7th seed and not have to face the 9th place team in the "play in game" in Week 11. If both teams had the same score in Week 10, we will then revert back to Week 9, Week 8, etc until the tie is broken.

If the team that you picked too win didn't win are you not allowed to get the bounus point for being closest too the actual score

[SintonFan]

Lots of hits and misses this week.
3MenAggie should pick up four extra points this week for having the closest score in ALL FOUR GAMES. :) We missed the WC but we got some good ones on the scores.
Reg. 1 Snyder 27 GW 17(10 points)... our pick Snyder 28 GW 21 (7 points... closest)
Reg. 2 West 13 Ken 10 (3 points against all's picks) our pick Ken 21 West 14 (4 points and closest)
Reg. 3 Kirby 27 BC 12 (15 points) our pick Kirby 28 BC 17 (11 points... closest)
Reg. 4 Ingleside 35 OG 34 (1 point) our pick Ingleside 30 OG 24 (6 points and tied for closest margin of victory, don't change the rules just because there is a tie... do it next week:) ):nerd:

Nobody gets bonus points on Region 2 as nobody guessed the game correctly. You have to guess that correct to get the score. Also, there is a tiebreaker system already in place for the bonus point. If both teams tie the system is as follows:

1. Closest to winning team's score
2. Closest to losing team's score
3. Team with the lower point total to start the week

Thus, nameless was correct on on tiebreaker #1 so they would receive the bonus point. So sorry...I'm not changing the rules...get off my ass...you don't get the point! :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:

NOTE: The Patagonian Giants did not turn in their picks on time and will thus receive the same 3 point deduction that was given to previous teams. Emerson1 has been notified by PM of this ruling.

NOTE 2: Effective this week, the team with the closest pick to the actual score of the game will be given 1 bonus point. This is for all 5 games so it is possible for a team to earn 5 bonus points. In the event of a tie, there are 3 tiebreakers:

1. Closest pick to the winning team's score.
2. Closest pick to the losing team's score.
3. Team (picking teams...not the schools) with the lowest season point total before the picks.

2. Closest to losing team's score
3. Team with the lower point total to start the week

Thus, nameless was correct on on tiebreaker #1 so they would receive the bonus point. So sorry...I'm not changing the rules...get off my ass...you don't get the point! :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: i didn't say anything

If anyone "forgot" that today's picks should have been turned in, the penalty should still be enforced. Anyone would gladly take a penalty if it means they were dum enuf to have over-looked an obvious "GOTW". Just checking here, but only team leaders can submit their weekly teams picks, right? Just curious.:confused:

That is correct unless I know that "circumstances" dictate that somebody else will submit them...which has happened numerous times throughout the season. The part about the captain submitting them is to say that the picks we receive from the captain are the official picks for the team...in case other members decided to send in differing picks.

[Adidas410s]

Here ya go. As has been noted, there was a Thursday night game. Team FUBAR did turn their picks in late and it is so noted. Two teams (Guys/Girls and BASSHOLES) both picked the correct spread at 4 points. There is a 3 part tiebreaker when this happens. The teams tied on the first two parts (closer pick to winner/loser score) so the 3rd tiebreaker (team with lower oveall point total at the beginning of the week) was awarded the bonus point. Thus, the BASSHOLES received the 2 points.

FYI...there will a MAJOR opportunity for teams to catch up in the point standings next week so make sure that you stay tuned once LHPM posts the game(s) of the week! You didn't think we could go too long without throwing another curveball out there! ;)

The final score was 11-7...so Madison won by 4.

BASSHOLES and Guys/Girls BOTH picked Madison to win by 4 points. In this case, they both also picked the same score of 30-26. Here are the tiebreak rules:

1. The closer pick to the winning team's score
2. The closer pick to the losing team's score
3. The team with the lower point total to begin the week.

Remember...this is only for the regular season and it will change come playoff time once we go to the head-to-head format.

[Adidas410s]

We've got an OOPS...just realized that Patagonian's pick of Yoe and Rockdale does not include a Top 25 team from Matt's poll. Does anybody know if Emerson is around today?

[Adidas410s]

here is the Pats new w/c pick...from Emerson's PM...






Adidas410s wrote on 11-03-2006 04:22 PM:
you chose Yoe vs Rockdale but neither of those teams are in Matt's Top 25. I need a new pick from you. So far...you've used the following teams so don't use them again:

Bellville Sweetwater Greenwood/Brownfield Sanger/Gainesville Dal Madison/Lk Worth

Just so I am in the "know"....can you point me to the link where the tie-breaker was discussed before??

IMO..I think both teams should be awarded the points!!

I tried finding it today but couldn't. I do remember finding it last Friday though...let me look around some more.

And the reason that the 3rd part was written in was to promote the purpose of the bonus point...to offer teams a chance to gain ground/seperate themselves from other teams. If the point is given to multiple teams...then it's purpose is defeated.

These rules confuse me....I know you had mentioned something about not being able to use a "losing team" score. But I can't remember what you were talking about.

It didn't seem like it had anything to do with the tiebreaker....I just remembered you said it couldn't be used.

I think..... :crazy1: :crazy1:

That was when somebody wanted to get the bonus point because (even though everybody picked the game wrong) they said they were closest to the actual spread so they wanted a point. I countered with "how can you get a bonus point on a pick if you don't even get the point for a correct pick."

I assure you that the rules will be much more cut and dry next season. This year was/is a big work in progress and we've had many kinks along the way.

the game would've been over by the 3rd or 4th week if we did that. Go back and look at the scores...it would've made the game boring and teams would've stopped playing. The changes and bonuses are made to give teams a chance to catch up and keep it interesting. You don't have to do anything different...just pick your games. The scoring has just had some added extras in it. Sorry that you don't do well with change...

based on his previous picks though they can't use Bellville and get the max points right?? :thinking: :confused:


I STILL THINK WE WERE ROBBED BONUS POINTS!

[AggieJohn]

See I don't think i fully understood the rules. I think that in order to win a bonus point you should have to have a score picked to the closest actual score.

Example:

Sinton-11 Cuero 7


Team A picks: Sinton 28 Cuero 24
Team B picks: Sinton 14 Cuero 8

Under what I understand from the game, the winner this week would be team A because they got the right spread. I think that Team B should win because they got closes to the actual score and picked the winner.

[Adidas410s]

Here are this weeks results. Nobody really did that great this week but there was a lot of shifting in the standings.

NOTE: This week...the Mart/Marlin game is ALSO being included in the picks. It will be a 6th game and you will still turn in your 4 Region + w/c games as well. A correct pick in the Mart/Marlin game will = 5 points. The 1 point bonus will not apply to this game. If you pick the exact score of the game, you will receive an additional 3 points making this game worth up to 8 points.

good question...I hadn't even thought of that. I just placed them up there this time.

Tiebreak system:

1. # of weeks that a team had the highest point total (including ties) of all teams. You can see that info here:

http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/8957/weeklystandingshs4.jpg

2. If #1 doesn't break the tie, we will look at who had the higher point total week 11, then 10, then 9, etc if we need to break the tie.

Anybody have any objections to this tiebreak method?

[SintonFan]

Looks good and if that was the case we would have the tie-breaker with 4 weeks highest score and 3 weeks for them. 3men
have gone from last place to 3rd in the tie-breaker system.:cool: :clap:

Sorry if it's a bit small this week. I had to cram 6 games into 5!

Remeber that at the conclusion of this week the 8th and 9th place teams will face off in a "play-in game" in Week 11. The top 7 teams will play Week 11 under the regular season system and their seeding will be determined after next week. The 8 team playoffs will start in Week 12.

I got a question and maybe a gripe, depending on the answer.

Since guys/girls and fubar BOTH have picked the same score for the Mart/Marlin game...and that happens to be the actual score of the game......will us girls be penalized yet again, since their score is smaller than ours???

There is no bonus point on the Mart/Marlin game. However, last week was the 1st time we had to use tiebreaker #3. Every week there are a few games where 2 teams turn in the same score. Look at this week:

Region 1 - Dyslexia and Guys/Girls both have 31-17
Region 2 - Dyslexia and FUBAR both have 28-24
Region 4 - 3MenAggie and BASSHOLES both have 31-20
Wild Card - FUBAR and Dyslexia both have 38-10 (granted...this would require the score of two different games to be the exact same for tiebreaker #3 to come into effect)

Also...on the Mart/Marlin game Nameless and BASSHOLES turned in the same score but as I stated earlier there is no bonus point given. You get 5 points for a correct pick and 8 points for an exact score pick.

And NOOOOOOOO...you aren't being penalized. Nothing is being taken away from you. You just aren't receiving anything extra! ;)

6 teams received 11 points and I'm too tired to look at the "tie breaker" rules for the WC game. There are 3 teams: 3men, Dyslexia & Patagonian that are real close with the spreads on their picks for the wild card games. Every team received 2 pts for their correct wild card picks.

Only teams NOT to receive the 5 point bonus for the Mart-Marlin game were: FUBAR & Carter.

Say good night Rita :nerd: :D

Here are the results for this week. We will have FUBAR vs Team Carter in our Week 11 "play in game" to get into the 8 team playoffs. There will be a new thread posted shortly detailing the playoff scenarios as well as any tiebreak procedures that are in place:

http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/8590/week10resultsya9.jpg

NOTE: If you are one of the 7 teams not involved in the play in game this week, you will still turn in your picks as normal but I will post the wild card game that every team will use as their 5th game. The GotW should be posted soon and then I will follow with a w/c game shortly after that. Remember, seeding for #'s 1-7 will be determined after this week of picks with the #1 team playing the winner of the FUBAR/Team Carter matchup.

[vet93]

I may be reading it wrong but didn't Nameless get the closest on Region I...assuming that Canyone one by 22...Nameless had a 17 point pick and 3men had a 15 point pick....

[Adidas410s]

This is the same as what I posted a few weeks ago. I added further clarification on the tiebreak scenarios.

You’ve heard me make mention of a 3ADownlow Pick’em Game Playoffs…well here is how it’s all going to work. We have 9 times…and in the spirit of the UIL we are going to ensure that all 9 teams make the playoffs! ;).

Structure
- The playoffs will start in Week 11 with FUBAR and Team Carter facing each other.
- Teams 1 through 7 will still turn in picks as has been done every other week. For these 7 teams, Week 11 is the last week to “jockey for position” before starting the playoffs in Week 12.
- NOTE: If two teams are tied with the same overall score at the end of 11 weeks, the team with the most weekly 1st place finishes will have the advantage. If they are tied there, then the team with the higher Week 11 score will get the higher seeding. This will continue to Week 10, 9, etc until the tie is broken
- Beginning in Week 12, the bracket will look like this:

http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/953/playoffbrackettentativeds8.jpg
- The playoffs will run through Week 14…the last possible week that there will be 5 games to pick from.
NOTE 2: For the playoffs, a mandatory wildcard game will be announced each week and all teams will use that as their 5th game.
NOTE 3: As this is the playoffs and everything is being done in a head-to-head format, there will be no use of the bonus point system.


Scoring/Tiebreakers
If teams have different picks, then the team with the correct pick gets the point. The first team with 3 points advances to the next week. If the teams both choose the same winner, the following tiebreak system will be used:
- Closer to actual point spread of game (this is the current “bonus point” system)
- Closer to actual score of winning team
- Closer to actual score of losing team

NOTE 1:If both teams turn in the exact same pick in Region 1, I will revert back to your pick in the Region 1 game from Week 11 and again use the same tiebreaking system if both teams chose the same winner. After that, it would move to Week 10, 9, and so on until the tie is broken. The same thing would apply if it reverts to Region 2, 3, or 4.

NOTE 2: If you turn in the exact same pick on the wildcard game, it will then go to whichever region that game stems from. For example Wylie/Decatur would be Region 1, Gilmer/T-LE would be Region 2, etc.

As always, please feel free to ask any questions that you may have and I will do my best to get them answered. If there is anything that I haven’t covered in these rules please let me know ASAP so that it can be addressed before the playoffs start so as to minimize heartache later on. Thanks guys…and that other team! ;)

Here is a scenario.

Team A
Wylie 24 Decatur 20
Gilmer 48 T L/E 38
La Grange 24 Sweeny 21
Cuero 42 Sinton 7
Sweetwater 28 Argyle 27

Team B
Decatur 28 Wylie 21
Gilmer 48 T L/E 31
Sweeny 20 La Grange 14
Cuero 49 Sinton 14
Argyle 28 Sweetwater 21

Results
Wylie 29 Decatur 25
Gilmer 52 T L/E 28
La Grange 24 Sweeny 14
Sinton 28 Cuero 27
Sweetater 35 Argyle 14

Results...

Region 1 - Team A gets the point for picking Wylie

Region 2 - both teams picked Gilmer. The actual point spread was 24 points (52-28 = 24). Team A picked a 10 point spread and Team B picked a 17 point spread. Team B gets the point for being closer.

Region 3 - Team A gets the point for picking La Grange

Region 4 - Both teams picked Cuero. Both teams were wrong but somebody has to get a point for this game. Tiebreak 1 says look at the point spread. Both teams were off by the exact same margin (the 35 points they favored Cuero by plus the 1 point that Sinton won by). Tiebreak 2 says look at the score of the winning team. Sinton scored 28 points and Team B picked them to score 14 points...so they were closer than Team A's pick of 7 points. Thus...Team B gets the point because of tiebreaker 2.

Wild Card Game - Team A gets the point for picking Sweetwater over Argyle.

Team A...3 points
Team B...2 points

Team A advances to the next round.

Clear as mud?

Exactly!! I think there needs to be "yet another rule" set in place that the scores posted on the board stand....adidas may have to pm them to us before they are publicized to make sure he has them right....but it seems kinda funny to me that ALL of the sudden, when the girls got the bonus, there is once again a problem!!:mad: :mad: :mad:

Hmmm....he STILL hasn't corrected it!:thinking: :thinking:

I can see making a typo....but if they actually picked the same score as we did...which was 37-14....then why the heck did he put 27-24?? He made a typo on BOTH scores??

It's not like he got the scores mixed up with someone elses, as nobody even had those on the numbers as a score for that game.

Something is rotton in Denmark, Arlington...wherever the heck he lives!!

I think he is just pulling our leg girls....or else, he needs some help with this BIG TIME!!!!

are ya'll jockeying for position because you dont want to play us first round?

i hope this doesnt come back to bite me...but i just looked at the pm i sent aggie john with my region 2 pick, and i do have it:

atlanta 27
gladewater 24

so unless AJ changed it without me knowing, then it is correct in the spreadsheet....

that still doesnt change the fact that the girls will lose the first round...
