Seems like the changes won't cause an uprising. Here are the amended rules:
Rules of this game:
1) Pick a player who has played in at least 10 games this season
2) Post said player along with your name, the players team, the players average (according to
ESPN.com and
ONLY ESPN.com)...like such: Joe Blow, Bobcats: 10.5
3) Picks are due by tipoff of the days first game (late picks will not count, regardless of whether the game involved is after the deadline or not)
4) If you pick a player from that night's Celtics opponent's roster for you must put your pick in pink font, like such:
Joe Blow, Bobcats: 10.54-L) Lakers picks will labeled in purple and gold to display your obvious love for the enemy...like so:
Kobe Poopyhead, Fakers (or other derogatory name) etc..
5) You may change your pick at any time prior to the daily deadline but in such case you must also put your pick in pink font...If the player you have switched is a Celtics opponent as well maybe you can put it in bold too
6) The player who scores the most points over his average wins the game for the person who selected him. The winner is awarded an amount of Tommy Points equal to that days participants (by a Moderator) for that days game. If there are more than 12 participants the winnings will rounded up to 2/3 for 1st place and 1/3 for 2nd place. We will only carry the averages 1 decimal, so there is the potential of a tie. Both participants will receive full amounts of TPs in case of tie.
7) 1 Tommy Point will also be awarded for the participant who's player has the worst score without recording a DNP
Anyone can start a new game for any day that there are games on the NBA schedule. Picks may be submitted no sooner than midnight Boston time for that days games. As long as there are a minimum of 2 participants - it's GAME ON!
Sorry redz I change a TP for a DNP in No.7
