Bowl Contest Rules: (For the 30 finalists)

[Bluemyboy]

BOWL CONTEST:
This contest will be fun and test your handicapping skills. Only the best handicapper will be watching the Super Bowl on a brand new 42" Television this year.


Contest Rules:

a) each participant will start with 25 mythical “wagering units” to be used for the FREE TV Bowl Contest

b) a separate thread will be started for each days games and lines/totals from BetUS will be posted within the thread for games to be played that day; all selections for games played must be posted in the correct thread.

c) each participant MUST wager at least 25 units (not counting juice) over the course of the contest. Failure to meet the “wagering requirements” will result in disqualification for prize eligibility

d) each participant can make the following wagers during the Bowl Contest but are not required to make anything more than 1 unit wagers if desire:
1 unit wagers (unlimited number of wagers can be made)
2 unit wager (1 wager per day can be 2 units)
5 unit wager (1 for the whole contest; BOWL GAME OF THE YEAR essentially.)
All lines will be graded at -110 (or -220, -550) although you only need to put the number of units you want to wager on each play
When making a selection please use the rotation number, team name, and line

e) The contest moderator will try to keep standings updated daily

f) The participant with the highest amount of “wagering units” after juice is deducted from losses and after the BCS National Championship game will be declared the winner.

g) Tiebreaker: Total score in the National Championship game (closest wins)

Based on your final rule for eligibility: "Automatic entry: Deposit or re-up a minimum of $300 into a Sportbook account created through a FBZ link."
You may actually end up with more than 30 entrants, if I understand it right. It seems to be exclusive of whether you are one of the monthly top 10.

[Bluemyboy]

yep, this number will be somewhere right around 30 people.

[kdmp]

can we get a list of posters that are in?

[Bluemyboy]

yes, I will put that up this week for all 3 months.

What Bowl are we starting with? and when is that? Are you going to put out a list of bowls we are picking, or will we be using all bowls from the day we start? Just Curious!!

I was unable to get to it this week, too busy at work and setting up the other contest when I had time. I will have a good deal of time on Monday set aside to grade the last three months and starting to set up the Bowl contest.
