| Heat Check? |
7:12 PM ET on 6/28/12 by Jay Soester |
With the NBA season a week gone by, and hopefully enough time passed to let anger subside, I'm curious to see if the Heat's championship changes anyone's opinion of the team.
Looking it up, 20 members have registered with the Heat as their favorite NBA team. Being from South Florida, that includes me. I imagine a majority of members hate the Heat given the events of the past two years, but I'm curious on the outside opinions regardless. Let me know your thoughts on the championship via the NBA Offseason Thread on the league message board. Or, if you can't stand talking about the Heat (which I can understand given ESPN), comment on your team's draft pick.
Given the results of the recent "What are you Watching?" poll where only 40% of the members that voted were following the NBA playoffs, I'd imagine many weren't swayed one way or the other by NBA Playoffs itself.
While I have you, don't forget the CFL season begins just under 24 hours from now at 7 PM ET on Friday. Sign up for CFL Pickem and get your picks in before the games begin.

| CFL Pickem Available |
1:30 AM ET on 6/20/12 by Jay Soester |
CFL Pickem is now available as the 18th game to be featured on the league website. Its scoring format mirrors NFL Pickem's exactly with the only differences between the games mirroring those between the NFL & CFL. I recommend reading the introduction on the game's rules page if you're not familiar with the CFL. The bonus point format mirrors AFL Pickem's with a small increase in the rank BP max and pick percentage points only being given for perfect weeks.
Please let me know of any mistakes or anything that needs clarification on the rules page or from the game otherwise. I'm looking for an assistant or two to help run the game this season by updating scores, I'll also need the assistant(s) to help make sure the schedule is up to date before, and throughout, the season with the correct dates and game times.
The season begins on June 29th at 7 PM ET. Those in the US can watch all games via ESPN 3 if you have access. For a look at the differences between American & Canadian football, check this wikipedia entry.

| Euro 2012 Pickem Available |
2:29 AM ET on 5/30/12 by Jay Soester |
Euro 2012 Pickem is now available. No idea what Euro 2012 is? It's the championship between national teams in Europe; essentially the World Cup of Europe.
You haven't heard a whole lot from me (other than the usual updates) in the past 2-4 weeks because I've been busting ass to get this done. The tournament begins at noon ET on Friday, June 8th. All pre-tournament entries are due by 11:57 AM ET that day.
The game is in the same mold as World Cup Pickem, but with game score picks (a la Premier League Pickem) made during the tournament after a pre-tournament entry.
The scoring for the pre-tournament entries mirrors that of World Cup Pickem, aside from the knockout rounds being one round shorter. The scoring for the in-tournament game score picks is the same as for Premier League Pickem, but with a perfect game in the knockout rounds also requiring a correct PK winner where applicable.
If you have any questions feel free to reply to the game thread. Hopefully the rule page can be of service as well, it features the bonus points breakdown. At least 26 bonus points will be available; I may add a simple picks made bonus as well.
I'll begin work on moving CFL Pickem from the message board to the website in the next few days.

| Message Board Down, Again |
12:51 AM ET on 9/1/10 by Jay Soester |
The message board server is down....again. I can't do anything about it, but I'm working to find out information. I'll pass it along as I find it out.
The Point Logs Assignment was the first step toward moving the message board to the website and I will continue to work on it through the fall. If it were any other time of year it would be managable in a few weeks. I hope to get a few more things done then re-assess whether or not to switchover without much of the information yet moved.
Please email Kevin Whorton with your CFL Pickem choices and email me your Fantasy Hockey & Fantasy Basketball draft time preferences.

Please make sure you email him before the week starts.
As for the message board, the people that run suddenlaunch are MIA (and that's been known for around 18 months), but a similar problem fixed itself in a few days. Hopefully the message board will be back by tomorrow at the latest.
