Timoperezrulez Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 RULES: 1. Before the White Sox games start, pick 1 player that you think will get a hit in the days game. 2. If that player gets a hit, your streak is at 1. 3. If your player does not get a hit, you start over at 0. 4. You are allowed to pick the same player everygame, or you can change every game. 5. At the end of the year, whoever has the longest streak wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Nice. This is one that you can jump into at any time since it's not a total points compilation, but it's longest streak. A total point compilation could done as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayitaintso Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I'm assuming that this is starting opening day? And is there going to be a seperate thread or is this one just going to be used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev211 Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 So if a no hitter gets thrown against us then every one goes back to zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, can you deliberately not make a pick if they are going against someone like Johan Santana? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timoperezrulez Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 Heres a rule I forgot to mention, you can only skip one game in a row without your streak going back to 0. So if you skip Santanas game thats fine, but then you have to pick the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 The record keeping seems monumental, have you thought about that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I could think of is have people check their own and at the end of the contest check who ever claims to be the winner. To me it seems like a gigantic season long head ache. How about this variation. Start one now, everyone has to play every game beginning tomorrow. Last person standing wins. In other words if 25 people start the contest Tuesday take the ones that advance and move on with them. As soon as it gets to one player, start another contest.

Perhaps if we have the rules finalized, we will have more members involved. Did you like that variation? It is basically a variation on the football winners pool idea. If so, why not pick a start date, perhaps Monday vs. the Tigers, we'll promote it hard all weekend, and see who gets involved? I don't want to take over your idea, I think it is a good one.

Timoperezrulez Posted April 6, 2006 Author Share Posted April 6, 2006 that sounds like a good idea, why dont you finalize the rules because it sounds like you know what your talking about with the football pool and stuff, then we will go from there.
