Just pick the winner and the margin for each match, for the last two games the correct score, you play your opponent PlayfulGenius.. most correct winners between the two of you wins.

How the GAME LIST Works

EXPLANATION:  
 
GAME LIST
EDMONTON at CALGARY MA1 PTS
VANCOUVER at WINNIPEG MA2
 
Game with MA after it's name - Pick the winner and the margin (Ex: WINNIPEG 2)
Game with PTS after it's name - Pick the whole score (Ex: CALGARY 6-3)

But do you get 1 point for winner and 1 point for margin? or 1 point for margin+winner and 0 if you don't get both?

[GirlySports]

no points system.

Just count wins, that is the first level. If you get more winners correct than your opponent, you win.

IF wins are tied.. then if you get more margins correct than your opponent, you win.

IF number of correct margins are tied, then it goes to a shootout. First margin correct wins. For example if you got MA2 correct and your opponent didn't get a margin correct until MA5, you win. (The games are weighted from 22 to 1)

IF shootout is a tie then we go to PTS which is more complex so I won't explain it until it happens

[GirlySports]

Montana Moe is tentatively in... which would make 8

[Montana Moe]

What the hell, I'm in.

Good Man, Mr Moe!

[GirlySports]

haven't heard from theclassic09

anyone want to be an alternate?

[GirlySports]

So looks like we're short one. Hockey gets his BYE back (since if would be unfair for him to lose his bye and someone else get the bye so ineedanother plays Montana Moe)

Looks like you need to start cheering for Vancouver. Being down 3-0 is just to hard to come back from
