Title: Dead Pool 2012: Everyone Dies, Everyone Wins
Post by: J. Walter Weatherman on December 19, 2011, 01:23:08 AM
Well, not really, once bonus/penalty points are accounted for.

I figure it's the same rules as the past (http://www.desipio.com/messageboard/index.php?topic=7112.msg199338#msg199338) two years (http://www.desipio.com/messageboard/index.php?topic=7626.0), unless even if there are objections from the peanut gallery Gil.

Namely:

a) Rank your picks 1-10 and be awarded points by ranking
b) Add one bonus point for each decade under 90
c) Deduct one penalty point for each person other than yourself who picked the same person
d) Each correct pick would be guaranteed a minimum of 1 point, regardless of deductions
e) 5 point penalty for late picks (picks in after the start of 2011, but before the announcement of everyone else's picks sometime in January)

Email me your submissions by Jan 1.

PM me if you need the email address again.
