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 Houston at New York Salt Lake at Vancouver Toronto at Columbus DC at Kansas City Colorado at Dallas Seattle at San Jose Chicago at Philadelphia Montreal at New England Los Angeles at Chivas Guesses are due by 8:00pm Eastern on Friday August 10th. As always all newcomers are welcome to play.

First, I'd like to thank the Academy, since that's apparently what everyone does first for some reason. Next, I'd like to thank jayd8888 for all the hard work put into making this contest happen. It's like a Fantasy League to me. I'd also like to thank MLSFan123 for his accurate projection of the dismal New England double header. And finally, I'd like to thank sedlie, because those weekly protests bring a punchline to thread. ...And I'm guaranteeing everybody here: next year I'm gonna win it again!
