2024 NFL Week 1

Lavender Room
1

Welcome back everyone, and to those playing for the first time. We’re a week away from kickoff so plenty of time to get your picks in. A quick reminder of the format for this season:

https://forum.slowtwitch.com/t/sphere-s-2024-nfl-football-pool-who-s-in/1235357?u=sphere

TL: DR version:

  • copy and paste the pics below into your response and indicate your selections
  • each win counts as one point, loss counts for zero
  • point spreads/underdogs don’t matter this year, only W/L
  • one GOTW per week, W counts as 2 points instead of the usual 1
  • playoff wins escalate in point value weekly from wildcard (2) to Super Bowl (5)
  • Windy Rule is in effect
  • winner(s) determined by total points
  • last place finisher will use the avatar of the winner’s choosing until the start of the following season

Feel free to ask questions or make suggestions here or in the other thread in the meantime, as formatting issues may arise that don’t translate well to the bold selection vs underline vs other etc.

Good luck and get your picks in.

Haha! Thank you!

I have a completely new system that uses home and away plus favorites and underdogs to maximize the number of points per week
