Picks for the week locked yesterday morning.  You would be a week behind in points but I guess I don't see the harm if you are OK with that?

Argh! For some reason I thought they put the highest confidence at the top of the list, not the bottom!

Have some digging to do now!   :cry:

Oh man, I did the same thing.  I could have sworn that the #1 confidence pick got 10 points and down the list from there.  Did they change it from last year?

That's 12 points lost....... :angry:

Does anyone else remember from last year it being different? Like basically the complete opposite of the way it works now> :confused:  :confused:

They did reverse it from last year.

I had to triple check every pick cuz at first I had it from top to bottom too.

Very annoying.

This is my 3rd year in this pool. It did not change. The number is the amount of points you will receive, not the confidence level.

Well, I don't know I'd it changed or not, but I didn't rank a thing. When I figured it out, it would've swung me by about 7 points. Oh well 1 week probably won't kill anyone.

Was maybe the 10 at the top last year, I think that is what I remember.  :confused:

That was it I think.

It stinks that I didn't pay attention, but at least half the field did the same. :biggrin:

I had a terrible week picking winners, but actually did as well as last week on points because I did a better job seeding them. Meanwhile MiaFLsurf looks untouchable.

 I don't know about being untouchable. It is only week 3. Lot's of football left.
