2016 ACCbbs Football Pick'em -- Raising Awareness Thread
While it's July, before you know it, it'll be August and time for one of our favorite ACCbbs pasttimes -- the annual ACCbbs Football Pick'em competition.
Collegecard, please come back out and take a bow for winning last season's spirited competition. We look forward to removing your crown this upcoming season (well, everyone else but me since I don't do as well when I'm playing Pick'em Manager).
For those of you who played last season, lemme see a show of hands if you plan to play this season...
Some of the format/rules:
----------------------------------
15 games per week
No flyers -- pick'em or take automatic "L"s
Focus on ACC games (including Notre Dame*), then regional (App State, Charlotte, Old Dominion, ECU, West "By GOD" Virginia, etc), and then national games.
---
We will start getting the weeks and games ready for the season, then open the bar for self-guided tours. I managed to go through the entire offseason without making a single tweak to the UI or backend, so it's the same feel as last season.
*** If there are any small tweaks you would be interested in seeing, PM me, like... soon! ***
---
* - for the purposes of this transmission, I consider Notre Dame an ACC outfit.

Being a glutton for punishment, I plan to try again this year. In two full seasons I have yet to finish first (or even tied for first) in any single week. I figure I'm due!
Bring 'em on!
