I'm happy to play on a team where my team mates want me on the team.

Confirmed Teams 1. Grannyg, Ladytex, Mocha 2. Lancecrossfire, Legalboxer, Scooterrific Tentative Teams 3. Mamie316, Hermione69, Nino 4. Nightcrawler, ?, ? (looking for Raiders Fans) Free Agents (Looking for team mates) Bob2112 Jefe Urgrace Whoami Wink Since this is already Wednesday, and I'm fairly certain several regular players won't come into this thread until they make their picks for this week's games later in the week, lets just make it official that we won't start the Team Competition until Week 6 of play. That should give everyone sufficient time to come in here, read what we're talking about, and assemble their teams. That should give me ample time to set up the Excel formulas as well. And remember, you don't have to have three players on your team. You can get by with two if that's all you can find. And also remember, if you know a football fan who hasn't entered the game yet, you can invite them to come in and play on your team. Since the Team Competition portion of the Game will start with picks made in Week 6. So the teams all start off with an even playing field.

I'm on Mamie's team!! Yay! This will be fun!! Who, do we have to make two separate lists of picks or will our single player picks count on the team? I've already made my picks for this coming week. I'll check back when week 6 games are posted.

Nino...just make your individual picks like always. The only thing that will change is I'll then take your individual score and average it in with your team mate's individual scores. Serious players may end up consulting with their team mates on picks. But, like I said before, its up to the team members to play up the team portion of the competition any way they deem fit amongst themselves (consulting with each other, reminding each other to make picks, coming up with team name/logo/colors, or whatever you feel like doing).

Nope, I am a loyal football person. The Broncos are ok, but since Elway left, they don't have the same heart. I'm a huge Favre fan too--I hope he can have a great last season. He embodies what the game is all about.

Wellll.....I guess I don't see any harm in being on more than one team. I guess I'll leave that up to you all. Since this is still in the early experimental stages for me, I don't know how complicated we want to make it. Its sort of funny, when I look back at the charts from the first season we played this game how disorganized my charts were! I've been tweaking and refining them ever since then! And I could have never had them where they are now if not for the awesome start up chart Draheid did with the original formulas for me back then! Don't know if I could have ever figured out how to do the Team Competition feature of the game that first year! LOL.

I don't think it will be any harder to add a person to multiple teams (at least as far as my Excel chart goes). I remember, as a player in one of the early Survivor games when we played on teams, I ended up getting kinda confused on which teams I was on. LOL! That's why I'll just leave it up to y'all. You can consider it an option if you end up finding it hard to find two more Raider fans.

Twinks...yes, your individual scores stay the same, as do the ranks. All you need to do is make your picks the same as usual. Those who are on teams will then have their individual scores averaged with their other team member's individual scores to come up with a Team Average/Score. ETA: Scoots, I didn't see your 8:38 post when I did my 8:39 post. So hope you don't think I was trying to contradict you. Like I said, its up to y'all. ETA also: I was thinking the same thing as you about Raider fans......

Um, I guess I need a team to be on now? I don't know anyone here, so if anyone needs another player, please sign me up. I am originally from SF and I root for the Niners and the Raiders IRL.

Redpen, Nightcrawler is looking for Raider fans! Do you want to volunteer to be on his team (with his blessings of course). And....you don't have to be on a team. This is just an added new feature to the game for those who want to have a little fun with it.

Ok you can put me down as a free agent. Any of you on the list want me on your team? But, I'm not a Raiders fan.
