Hi Everyone! My job has become more demanding. I am very interested in playing, but I'm not sure about posting results each week.

No problem, Scooter.

I'll give you all the emotional support you need.

I am in.

We could switch the picking to something like Yahoo's Pickem game.
That would manage the picks and scoring, but we would lose the BQ points.

It can just be pick the winner or
Confidence picks where you pick the winner and rank from 1 to 16.
Confidence pool takes care of most weekly ties.

It's free and we could bring the results back here to keep the discussion going.
We could still do the teams manually to keep that part alive.
I'd be willing to keep those totals. I just don't have time to enter picks or compute results.

If there is any interest, I can set up group and we can try it out.
Costs nothing and we can stop it if it doesn't work out.

Hi all, I’ll be glad to manage the scoring and post the results this year. I’m fine with Bob’s suggestion too, but if we want to continue as before, I’ll give it a go. I’m volunteering. Just let me know.

Hey Mr. Weiner!

How about you run the pool as it has been running and I can setup a confidence pool at Yahoo to run in parallel?

I know many people prefer the existing game as much for the social interaction in addition to the actual picking of the games.
Thanks for volunteering! :-)

I'll set up a private Yahoo Pick'em confidence pool people who would like a different challenge. Anyone can enter either or both. Details to come.

I am ready for the football!

Below is the link and information to join the Yahoo Pick'em group.
You will need to register an account with Yahoo if you don't already have one.
You can use any email address but make your Pick Set Name the same as your TVCH user name so everything lines up.

Group Name: TVCH WhoAmI Conf Pool
Group ID: 20503
Group Password: TVCH2024GoBears

Link To Join

If above doesn't work, I can enter email addresses and have link sent directly to your email.

Thanks.

I was wondering if I could just share that link that I sent to another of my email accounts. Guess we need a different way.

Who will be the Guinea pig?

This is generic link that should get you to screen where you can create your account.

Yahoo Login/Register

Once logged in you can go to:

https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/

pickem

That should get you to button to join a group using the information provided.

You may need to try various combinations and clicking.
It's hard for me to test without trying a new account with new email.

Pamy will figure it out and make it easier for the rest

I'll stick with this game. It may sound silly but I'd be overwhelmed with 2 games. I barely know what I'm doing in this one. 😉

I'm in! Use the links in Bob's 4pm post and then it takes you to page where you put in the

Group Name: TVCH WhoAmI Conf Pool
Group ID: 20503
Group Password: TVCH2024GoBears

after your fingers stop burning from typing GoBears instead of GoEagles you are in LOL

Then you pick your game user name (use your tvch name) it asks you some preference questions then you can make picks

Bob, I dont understand what to do in the confidence points area. Do you pick 10 for the game you for sure think will win and then keep #ing in order of what you arent so sure about?
