gmen81 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 What is Hockey Prognosticating? In the game, participants pick the winners of a set of hockey games in a particular week and are placed in a knock-out system. That means each participant plays a different participant and whoever predicted the winner of most matches correctly, moves on to the next round. Note: - In case of a tie, a tie-breaker featuring winning margins will decide who moves on to the next round. How to Sign-Up: Just post here that you would like to play ("Im IN"). You can only play one tournament per week (in the case we one day have more than one tournament per week). Entries will be based on ranking starting in Week 4 for this opening season. The first three weeks will be blind draw free-for-alls. Anyone can commit. Picks can be sent in as soon as the "GAME LIST" is ready. Remember, you pick a winner in every game on the list! Picks should be sent by PM, so that your opponent does not know your picks.

BananaMash Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I dont fully understand the game because I havent read it yet, but Ill sign up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmen81 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 Basically just pick who you think wins the games and by how many goals. One game you will also have to try and predict the exact score. You aren't picking games everyday, most likely just on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Maybe others if needed, so it really isn't time consuming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BananaMash Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Gmen I'm gonna spread the word of this game like pubic lice in a nudist colony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmen81 Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 Need at least 8 people and hopefully an even number. Games would start Tuesday if we get enough. There will be multiple tournaments so anyone can sign up for any tournament and don't feel the need to enter one down the road if you don't a like it.
