2012-13 College Football Bowl Pick'em Contest

[Wolverine]

This will be the first time ever that I'm hosting this college football bowl pick'em contest. The rules are just like the NFL pick'em if you have played it. If you are new, here are the simple news:

You pick the team that you think will win the game. Get the pick correctly, you get a point. Get it wrong, you don't get a point. Whoever gets the most correctly, wins the inaugural college football pick'em contest and will receive vCash as an reward.

How much vcash we talking here [MENTION=53]Bad News Booty[/MENTION]?

 

[28 Jakes Later]

I have nothing to do with this as I barely watch any college football at all

 

[Petty]

Who's giving the vcash then? Lol

 

[28 Jakes Later]

Don't know

 

[Petty]

We need answers here.

 

[Fuji Vice]

We need answers here.

My goodness, the contest doesn't even start until the 15th dude. Haven't you ever heard the expression "patience is a virtue"? Anyhow, I'll take care of the vCash for the winner so there, you have your answer.

 

[Petty]

I'm aware of when it starts. I'm allow to be curious of the details. [MENTION=51]Fuji Vice[/MENTION] can we also get this sticked?

 

[Petty]

I thought I'd update the rankings for this contest thus far. Wish alot more people would have got into this. With there being two bowl games left, Ghostface is in front of the pack with Discord high and on his heels and Swamps bringing up the rear!

[MENTION=296]Ghostface Killa[/MENTION] 21-14

[MENTION=576]Discord[/MENTION] 20-15

[MENTION=57]Swamps[/MENTION] 16-18



It's Official, Ghostface is the winner, followed closely by Discord. [MENTION=51]Fuji Vice[/MENTION] it is done. You can double check the win/lost and it is all correct sir.

 

[Wolverine]

My apologies for not adding the bowl picks we got right because I was out of town and my laptop is kinda screwed up.

Congrats Ghostface Killa on winning the first ever College Football Bowl Pick'em Contest, beating me by one point! You deserve it man!

I would like to thank all you guys for participating in this contest and we hope that we continue to do this as long as I or anybody else host it.

 

[Petty]

I agree. Thanks! And no problem!
