Isn't -5 for a missed pick?

Isn't -5 for a missed pick?

I'm going to need Redz to make a ruling because the rules only say for a DNP if a player was picked as the lesser -5 or 5 less than the other player's score.  So does lesser mean take which score is lower or which score is lesser below the other persons score.  If it's the former than Rebus you'll win the series.

I thought that meant for a DNP if the player doesn't play... From what I saw when I read the rules there was no rule regarding if a contestant fails to make a pick. Technically, that could be strategy (It wasn't, but it could have been).

** After review MattG12 was given a score of -5 for his missed pick.  That means with a tie of 2-2 and Rebus getting enough points last night that he wins the tie breaker -10.2 to -14.4

[Redz]

Yeh, looking at the wording on there it says nothing about a missed pick.  I know it came up last year, and how it was handled was the same as a DNP pick, unless the person skipping the pick was up against an opponent who DID make a pick but had a DNP (this actually happened).  In that scenario the person missing the pick was given -10 and the DNP received a -5.

I can only tell you that the spirit of the rule is that missing a pick should, in no way, be rewarded.

Sounds good, TP to Rebus... Good luck in the next round!  

[RebusRankin]

Fair enough. TP back at you Matt.

I'm worried I'm going to get stuck with the Lakers.

[fairweatherfan]

Last minute pick - Kobe Bryant, 27.0

[Bahku]

Congratulations to Rebus on the win! And condolences to Matt ... that's a sucky way to lose. TP's to both you guys ... close contest!

[Bahku]

A TP to Truck as well for the good game ... I just got lucky for once in my life, Bud ... sorry it had to be you, makes for mixed emotions, (like round one for me).

Seems like Lakers is a dead end, just like in real life

[Kwhit10]

TPs to Rebus and Bahku on their series wins!

Also TPs to Matt, Truck and fwf for making it this far in the playoffs.  We hope to see you guys next year!
