CP Live Draft Playoff Pool

[Aeneas]

It's time to get ready for playoffs.

I believe the season ends Sunday April 11th. A quick look at the sked shows that only 1 playoff team (I think) is involved in the 3 evening games.

So options for the draft:

1. Sunday April 11th. Watch the Ducks and Oilers fight. Depending on the time of the draft, all but this game could be over.

2. Monday April 12th.

3. Wednesday April 14th.

I have selfishly left April 13th out of the running as I cannot be there then.

As usual, Pete's Peanuts Pub.
Snake draft
10 players including goalie
1 point for G or A
3 points SO, 2 points W
$20 -$25 entry
payout 70-20-10

All of the above rules are negotiable as usual.

Regular season draft payout (a big f u to Bouchard) will occur this night.
If you are one of the two who did not pay me at the regular draft, please pay at this one. I really dislike chasing people for money, so no money no draft.

[FlamesKickAss]

I am in. If its Sunday I would rather do it in the afternoon

[Aeneas]

I will try to PM all the usual suspects.

Side bets from regular draft:

FKA vs Aeneas $10
troutman vs Windom $10
FKA vs Windom $10
FKA vs troutman $10
Aeneas vs Locke $20
Eddie Bronze vs Aeneas ongoing double or nothing from pools past.

[troutman]

I should be there. April 11th might be best for me.

Will be strange to have a playoff pool without homer Flames picks to make.

What do you mean? Calgary will have the #8 seed.

$100 side bet?

[Slava]

I'm in and greatly prefer the 14th.

[Aeneas]

Maybe. Let me think about it.
Why are you posting, I thought you were gettin' busy in SF?

[VladtheImpaler]

If it's a weekday, I would prefer to start right after work, 4 pm or so...

[Locke]

I'm in. 11th or 14th work best for me.

[WindomURL]

I'm game.
1st choice: 11th. I'm guessing we'll probably need to wait until after 5:30pm (after the Pit and NJ games finish)
2nd choice: 14th. Is that the day the playoffs start?
Can't make: 12th

[FurnaceFace]

I'm in. I have no issue with any of the times.

[chummer]

I'm in.

14th works best for me.

[Eddie Bronze]

I'd pick the evening of the 11th. If it's another day I'll make it work.

I will accept your bet, however I must make a small change or two.

Since, according to the experts in the media and the learned visitors to this site, the Flames have only a 0-10% chance to make the playoffs; odds will be required.

Also because my occupation, while incredibly rewarding personally, is sadly lacking in financial reward I must lower my payout to $50.

So, if the Flames do not make the playoffs I will pay you $50.
If the Flames do make the playoffs you will pay me $250.

Agreed?

[FlamesKickAss]

That sounds fair knowing both of your occupations. Can I get in on that too trout?

[VladtheImpaler]

So, can we do the 14th at 4pm? Or at least, will someone meet me there at 4pm so that I don't have to drink by myself, while waiting for the draft?

[Slava]

^ I am not sure about 4pm yet. I have an exam that day and no times yet (which I find incredibly frustrating!). I will commit to meet you for 4pm and see how it goes though.

[troutman]

I can't take $50 from my friends.

[FlamesKickAss]

April 14 doesnt work for me. I'm going to be golfing out of town
