Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
Can someone please explain to me how this whole confidence picks thing works. Is 1 the least confident and 16 the most? Or the other way around? I kinda wish I knew this before I joined up. I figured this was a simple pick em to win type setup.
I went 10-6 last week picking the games but no points because I didnt know anything about this whole confidence part. It's kinda dumb.

Confidence Points
The higher the number means the more points you get.
So the game you are the most confident on - you put 16.
If you pick the correct winner - you get 16 points.
If you don't you don't get any points.
So the game you are the least confident in.
You put the 1 point on and if you get it right you get 1 point.
I have seen several different types of pickems
Straight Up Pick'ems
Against the Spread Pick'ems
Confidence Pool Pick'ems.
I am surprised that Yahoo didn't warn you your notify you are anything that you hadn't selected any confidence points for any of the game.
That sucks Axe! hopefully you continue to play.
When I check each week I always check to see who picked the most correct wins and who got the most correct points.

Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
Stick with it. People miss weeks all season, so if you're with it the whole way through, you could make a push back up. That and if you're record ends up being the best you can always point to that at the end for some bragging rights! I'll toss you some rep if you win that side of it!
Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
Yup exactly. There is still a record of who has the most wins and losses.
Keep that up and you win the same prize that the person with the most points win....Bragging Rights!!

Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
Yeah, I can definitely guarantee I'll forget about the confidence points a couple times during the year!
Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em

ChilePuck goes bold and picks the Eagles on Thursday.
And now they can sit back and relax while the rest of us sweat this weekend.
Don't forget to make your picks!
Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
No strikes this week! Good work everyone.
Although I am assuming a handful of you were sweating the NY Giants pick.
I considered picking them against Arizona...
Never thought Arizona would get out to such a huge lead.
Everyone on to Week 3!
Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
I had the Niners this week so I wont say I was sweating, but LA certainly made it closer than I would have expected.

Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
Yes, the Rams did keep that one close for longer than I expected as well.

Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
I assumed that Giants pick was sunk at half time. Thankful to be rid of them for this season.
Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
I hope I just don't have to select the Giants all this year!

Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
I dont think the Giants are as bad as they have looked early on.

Re: 2023 Dobber Survivor and Pick 'Em
I almost went with the Giants too but played it safe with the Bills this week.
Without me, it's only "aweso".
