Here's a new area for discussing and playing this year's football pool.
Have fun and let me know if we need any changes/additions.

Reposting for anyone willing to try a 2nd pool.
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/
That should get you to button to join a group using the information provided.
Pamy said: 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

Pamy Here's an image showing some partial picks:
Check the button next to the team you want to win.
Then assign a point value based on your confidence that team will win using the drop down on the right.
16 for most confident.
1 for least confident.
The numbers not yet used are shown at the top and the used numbers are also greyed out when you select drop down.
Pick all the games and assign all the points and click "Save Picks"
There are some tie breaker questions at the end to break any weekly ties.
Yahoo has there own way of using that info, so we just go with their winner for a tie.

When picks are completed and saved, it should look like:
If you miss the Thursday game, you just pick the rest and don't use you 1 value pick.
So, not a big loss.
If you also miss Friday's game, then you would skip 2.
Best not to miss picks, but it does happen. No big deal.
Picks are due 5 minutes before start of each game and you can make changes with remaining points up to that time.

Good lord, I finally got in. I had to sneak in through the bathroom window.
Is this with no point spread?
Boy, am I pain in the ass. No wonder you locked the door.

OK. I put in 1 pick for tonight's game. Can someone check to see if I did it right?

I see 9 people were able to join. Not too bad for short notice and goofy interface.
Grooch No point spread. Just pick the winner and assign your confidence points for each game.
I can't see any picks until the game locks, so no way for me or others to verify.
Best way is to log back in and see that you select a winner for tonight and assigned a value. The Picks Saved should probably show 1 of 16 if you saved it properly.

Scooterrific Best that I can tell if you pick the game right you get the confidence points for that game. This is how it works after you make your pick. assign a point value based on your confidence that team will win using the drop down on the right.
16 for most confident.
1 for least confident.

I hope that helps you. Bob, do you get any points for picking the game right? Or do you just get the confidence points
