    Game Rules Etc.

    If you are new to the game just follow the herd and you will catch on quickly. The person who can closest predict the total weekly attendance added from each of the absolute values from each game, IE the lowest score, will be declared the winner. Please submit your answers numerically; an answer such as “sold out” will be counted as 0. I will continue to present the games in the standard American way, Visitor @ Home Team for now. If this bothers you so much that you feel the need to lecture me about how it is properly displayed in other countries you should get your life priorities in order. Have fun and enjoy. Guesses for all of the week’s games are due by game time of the week’s first game.

    After some suggestions and limited discussion I have decided that I am not going to change anything about the game except awarding points to the top 15 players instead of 10. 15 points will be given to the weekly winner instead of 10 and 5 more players each week will receive points.

    All new players are welcome and a player can jump in and out any week. Edwardgr and TopDogg are examples of players who have had strong showings after joining the game later on in the season. Points will tally throughout the season and the player with the most weekly points will be declared the season champion, so the player who plays more often will have an edge. A player may change his/her guesses anytime before the week’s first match. Please make sure you let your change known. Most players quote their old guess and post new ones with a message like “changing my @ Vancouver pick to 21,000.”

    this week’s games


    Salt Lake at Seattle
    Montreal at Toronto
    Kansas City at New York
    Columbus at DC
    Chicago at New England
    Philadelphia at Houston
    Colorado at Chivas
    LA at San Jose
    Portland at Vancouver
    Dallas at Seattle





    Guesses are due by 10:00pm Eastern on Wednesday October 17th. As always all newcomers are welcome to play.

    What, is it free Samuel Adams night in NE? And it must be Mexican drug cartel night for Chivas, bring a head in a duffle bag and get in for free.

    That's really only a problem if sedlie posted a 15,00 attendance guess.

    1. I don't use commas in my numbers to make it easier to copy (just double click the number instead of highlighting by dragging).
    2. I would protest the shit out of that one by having my lawyers go back looking for precedence.
    3. I would protest regardless. :)

    And I'm sure you would take the guess in European decimal form as 15.
