Rules:

1. Forum members may select a maximum of two squares.

2. A payout of 25 posting points is made to the winner of each quarter. The winner is the one whose square aligns with the last digits of the teams score in the quarter. For example, if team A has 24 pts, and team B, 10; then the winner of the quarter is the one who selected the square that lines up with "4" for team A, and "0" for team B.

3. For the person with the square that coincides with the final game score using rule 2, the payout will be 50 posting points rather than 25. The exception would be in the event that the game is decided in overtime. Should that  occur, the 4th quarter is treated like any other and the final score will win the extra 25 points.

4. A total of 125 posting points are available to be won, if all squares are taken. One person can win more than one quarter.

5. Square buying opens Noon (EST) Jan. 29. It closes Noon. Feb. 5. (The Superbowl is Sunday Feb. 6.) First come, first served. Posting date and time determines priority. Please check the updated board after you’ve selected to make sure your selection was not taken. You will not be notified if someone has already selected your square(s). You may need to choose one or more squares if yours were taken.

6. Unsold squares become voided squares and do not payout anything to anyone.

Hey Buddy...

It's well known that Canadians have a reputation for pinching pennies so hard  that they turn them into dimes.

I think that we will leave the number choosing up too Dave our  honest  and trusted moderator.
If we let you anywhere near the results....I am afraid that we all might be left standing at the border watching the tail lights of the bus as they disappear into Canada....along with the money, the chicks and anything else we may have stashed under the seat cushions.



buttlint,

You mean you don't trust me with something more valuable than Yankee dollars: those valuable posting points? You done hurt my feelings. . Heck you can't even hold-up a bank or corner store to get them. Have to earn them the old way; work for them, or post a lot of nonsensical hair care product reviews.

Well, now I can pick a couple of squares and join in, which is great.

Let's see, a quarter win and the final score win will give me 75 points US. At the current exchange rate of 1.98 X 10**2 that gives me 14850 points Canadian to add to my total for a grand total of about 22,000. OHHH YEAH!  I'll be ahead of Marshall and in first place as top poster for at least 5 days until he catches up. Well that makes it all worthwhile. I'm in.

Anyone think that if we sell out on this one quick we start a second board with a Dave drawing a different score order, which would only be open to those who didn't get on the first one.  Say it doesn't sell out 4 hours before closing time, it would then be open to everyone (including those who already picked). Sort of an incentive to get in on the game early and offer a possible bonus for the early takers.

What do you folks think?

PS: I checked the bus thoroughly and there were lots of beer caps, the label off a Pri-G bottle (Bobby was on that trip), Paulas back hair trimmer (I'll send it back to her as soon as she tells me where she lives and I've finished trimming the hedge with it ) and some more of that Brady Bunch girl's  "Marsha II" monogrammed ladies undergarments. Just stuffed them in the seat to help pad it, so some unknown mod need not be concerned.

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha. You is looking good once you is shaved and has applied a few coats of crevice filler. Hey I'll be right back there baby. But first answer me this: will you still respect me after the next gas stop?
