Just wanted to check on the game picker playoffs to see what is happening this year, last year's didn't work out too great b/c we had to pm our picks before each games b/c I think the forms weren't working for some reason or another, but I just wanted to see what's up for this year b/c they start in just a few days.

We didn't have anyone working on it this season, so it's going to be the same messy PM setup this year. The one difference is that I'll be handling it from beginning to end this season. Last season, through no fault of her own, Linda was swamped with finals about halfway through the playoffs, so she couldn't really devote her time to calculating picks and we ended up falling behind temporarily.

Even though I'm seeded fourth, I won't participate this year because I don't have the time for it.

I'll be setting up everything tomorrow and hope to have everything mostly in place by the afternoon tomorrow. Here will be the seedings. Please reply in this thread or PM me to confirm your spot for the playoffs.

Keep checking the forum for further updates. All Game Picker Playoff communication and information will be posted here, but the format will be the same as last season. The format will be a head-to-head elimination picker playoff with each player picking an assigned series in the actual NBA playoffs.

As the regular season winner, yvan gets to choose which conference to pick in the playoffs, East or West.

Reporter: "What position do you play?"

Tim Thomas: "I play the 'Dunking On People' position. Coach says go in, and who to dunk on, and I just dunk on them."

Reporter: "Fascinating."

Count me out since there is still no playoff pick submission system in place. Give my spot to someone else.
