    Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

      Memphis-Navy is the biggest G5 game out there, but AlabamAlum sure love him some Sumlin.

      Also, how is Georgia-Cocks not the SEC game? Shameful shit.

        Talent,

        Three things:

        1. Missed the Memphis game originally and I had already posted the slate. Laziness is the mother of staying the course. Stay the course!

        2. UGA-SoCar will be a snooze fest. I considered it, but liked Klempson-Jackboots more. I started to move that to the ACC game, MissStake-Powercats to the WC and have the UGA game for the SEC game but decided I hate Kirby too much to showcase one of his wins unless I have no other viable choice.

        3. As I said in my Rules Epistle, bitching about the chosen slate is your expressed wish to take this time drain over. I know you have expierience running one, this is yours whenever you want, you moronic gaping Front-Hole.

          Incorrect on all counts except where agreeing with me.

            Where I will regret leaving UGA-USC out is if Coach Champ takes his undersized Cocks and beats the Bulldogs senseless. But I don't believe in Santa Claus, fairytales, or the inherent goodness of humanity or the universe.

                      drok,

                      Got it. Please delete the original post. It makes it easier. I go through this thread and have the names of the contestants. When I get someone's picks, due to the chatter, I mark them off the list and scroll until I find another contestants name. Unfortunately, that means I sometimes miss additions and corrections because I am no longer looking for that person's name.

                        It could be easier for you to run things off a Google spreadsheet perhaps? Share the link with all of us, we can go in there and place our own bets, and you go in there at the cutoff time to lock it down? I'm no spreadsheet jockey, but don't think it would be complex and could lend a hand and set that up if you like.

                          Hack,

                          Thanks. That's very nice of you.

                          I participate in a variation of this contest for actual money. We tried Google spreadsheet, PBWorks, and a few other freeware offerings. Among other things, we had issues with timestamps and making it so contestant A could not alter contestant B's work. Yes, if something was messed with, you could go back to a previous version, but without some program or code to address some of the issues (that none of us could build), we came up with a product that worked, but we ended up spending much more time on the program than we used to before doing it the old way.

                          That said, none of us were/are computer experts. if you're interested in building something, we can definitely try it.

                            I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

                              Dammit - didn't think of that. Already beyond my skill level.

                                With only 18 or so contestants, it's not that hard. I have scoring macros set up on excel. The thing that makes it tough is going through and having to re-read 4 pages of chatter to get those 18 pick sheets.
