Ok. I went back and fixed it!!

Sorry about that. Too many other things on my mind. I use a template to copy down all the games of the week, so I just have to copy/paste the results to the appropriate board I open the game on. And I forgot to transfer the new games into the template.

Thanks for the catch!

I'll tabulate tonight's games tomorrow. Sorry, I got kinda distracted with other stuff tonight. Seems like I can only tackle one task at a time these days. LOL

Anyway, while we wait.....

I'd like to invite/encourage/plead/beg (or whatever it takes) some/all of you to consider playing concurrently on TVCH. The main purpose for this would be to have 3 of you team up and form a team under the Teams feature of the Game. Basically, I just take the 3 individual scores from each team member to make a team score. There's even enough folks here to form more than one team.

Let me know. Cause we have to have the teams formed by the start fo the Regular Season next week, and you'd have to sign up for membership on TVCH too. If you're interested, I'll send you the approppriate links.

Well, I suppose you could. There's probably only enough players here to make two three-person teams. Then I could just add you in to the "Combined Boards" feature of the recap pages. I just thought it would be more fun to compete against more teams. Like, let your presence be known "over there."

How The Teams feature works. Three of you agree to compete together as a team You come up with a team name. Then, when I tabulate, you end up with your usual individual score and ranking, along with a team score and ranking. The team score is calculated by averaging the individual scores of the three team members.

So basically, you do nothing different, as far as making picks goes. Of course, you may want to strategize with your team mates about picks. But that's up to you.

You are always welcome to bring more players in here to make up more teams!!

If you want to do the Teams feature here, let me know soon. The Teams feature starts next week, so that's when we need to have teams established. It does add a fun extra dimension to the game.

k ... will check it out tomorrow (fried from traveling). Sounds like it might be fun to, as you said, add a different dimension to the game.
