Congrats to:

2 losturmarbles 7-3-0 70.00 % +9.70 148p
3 BarkingToad 6-4-0 60.00 % +7.60 111p
4 gummo 7-3-0 70.00 % +5.50 28p
4 n1co35 7-3-0 70.00 % +5.50 28p
4 Rich Boy 7-3-0 70.00 % +5.50 28p
4 MSUSpartan32 7-3-0 70.00 % +5.50 28p

An important lesson that was learned here is that when there is a tie in units, sbrpicks automatically uses Wins as a tiebreaker.

I like that rule so we will keep it in and I will add it to official rules.

However, since this was never announced before, for the ONE TIME ONLY I will make up the points to losturmarbles by bumping him up to what he would have won on a tie. The top 2 would have divided 518 points for 259 each, so I will give him 111 points.

Also, I WILL add Totals starting next week, and keep it at 10 plays.

Thanks marbles.

Well, there IS a point in having best bets in that they could allow you to finish ahead of guys with fewer wins. Just remember that ties lose in effect.
