Hey I won my $500 bet, why I'm not on that list??
Hey, Cap said we're responsible for tracking our own stakes. I guess he just likes to play favorites! :P

Sorry. Accidental oversight.

If someone was serious about this they would play every game. You could make more money that way or lose it easier I guess. I cheated and looked at everyone’s bet. I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to. I picked $666 to be funny since 69 was already taken.

Preseason is for working out bugs like that.

I admit I did too before seeing the rule. Pretty sure Ally did too based on his bet. Anyway, didn't look for tonight's games.

Wrong games. Tonight’s only eligible game is LAC@LAL.

My stake is 1333.

This resets at the reg fulmar season, right? Man, I suck at betting on individual games.

A good strategy for this year would be to sneak a peak at my picks and do the opposite.

Do we like the spoiler tags and honor system, or would we prefer betting by PM?

I am good with the honor system as long as we state that is what we will use. This is all for fun, so that should be enough.

I don’t even know if I trust myself keeping my own record. I would be good with anyone else keeping track too. Then of course that would be a pain for them. I think I’ll skip the LA game.

That is the smart choice.

I agree. Seems like a coin flip.

If it were the regular season, I would skip it.

I feel like we should make the real game more crazy by saying you can't bet on a game with more than a 5 point predicted spread. :P

I haven't participated but would like to when the regular season rolls around. Would be nice to get a reminder every day which games can be bet on though... pretty hard for us out of market folks to know what's on national TV.

Spoiler/honor system should work quite well, hate to make anyone take up the logistics of tallying bets...
