Have gotten a few questions from people still confused with Temptation, or aspects of it as explained by Woodson in the OP.

So here's to answer those questions...

=========

Regarding this...

THREE KICKER POINTS TO CLAIM EACH WEEK: For the most CR team winners selected weekly with tie breaker being total accumulated score of your TOPlist teams that you sent in that particular week so the 'Temptation' to press more into the weekly challenge to try claim the Bonus THREE Points!! In the event of a tie after tie-breaker, both/ all claim three points.

What Woodson is saying is that there is a bonus of 3 pts people can get each week in Temptation, that is based on who has the most CR winners. Like, say you picked 8 winners from 16 games (ignore the CR score, just who won-lost), but I got 12/16 correct. Then for Temptation comp I would pick up a bonus 3 pts.

There are other bonuses in Temptation, which are explained in his OP, as well as this "kicker" he talks about.

=========

In regards to the prizemoney and tie-breaker....

What he is saying is that if two or more people are tied on total points, AND also are tied in how many teams are alive still, then they will split the prizemoney....BUT...a champion has to be still determined, so there's a tie-breaker process used.

This is why there's a prizemoney split of...

2 people: 60/40
3 people: 50/25/25
4 people: 55 /15/15/15
5 people: 60/10/10/10/10

As the tie-breaker awards a champion, who gets the higher prizemoney split.

If two or more people are tied on total points, BUT, one of them has more teams alive, then he would get the 100% of the prizemoney.

Really hate the first week of 3xo. It's basically a raffle where you hope at least one of your teams survives. After that it gets a bit easier when you have some recent form to help you.

Colts surely??

I've tipped Raiders and Bills (not telling on others).

For those inexperienced at 3xko, there's always a wrecking-ball (a sure-fire favorite who loses that causes masses of lives lost) lurking each week you have to be careful about

Maybe Woodson should call it a tsunami instead of a wrecking-ball.

Plus, if I'm wrong, that's to my advantage as having 2 lives or 1 life is clearly a better strategy than having 3 lives

I'm having trouble deciding how confident I am in each tip

Sucks to be a rookie. Just trying to cram NFL info in as fast as I can.

There are many underdogs that look good I just don't want to get sucked in.

You'll be sorry

 

[Papa Juggs]

Not enough bare breasts on the clubhouse site.

Good effort though, better than nothing

 

[JeffDunne]

The Temptation TopList and tipping form are now up.

The tipping page is labelled as 'Temptation' in the menu & TopList is labelled 'TopList'.

 

[exe ex machina]

Will test now and report any issues

 

[exe ex machina]

Issue...

When you make selections it auto saves. When you leave page and come back to it the first three teams from your list are listed twice in a row that you can select to bet

 

[JeffDunne]

Thanks GG, looking at that now.

 

[exe ex machina]

Issue..

Also regarding the spread, will there be a list or widget displaying the line given for these games? Would be better having it listed somewhere on that page and not people having to search around or rely on a bf post for it.

Thanks

 

[JeffDunne]

I think I've fixed it GG

Even though the form's autosaving, I think I'll re-add the save button soon to avoid any confusion

Yeah I need to add those today.

Have we decided on whose line we're going to use?

 

[exe ex machina]

Not sure. Whatever you think is best. tomatosauceling Woodson

 

[JeffDunne]

Which betting agency is BF hooked up with?

I aggressively use ad-blockers so I might be asking an obvious question

 

[exe ex machina]

Sportsbet I think

 

[Sven]

Is 3XKO open?

I only ask this question because the browser (IE Version 8) we use at work is old and 3XKO might not be working on it.

 

[JeffDunne]

ie8? *shudders*

I'll check it out.

 

[JeffDunne]

It's working for me Sven.

What's the problem? The buttons not showing or the buttons not working?

 

[JeffDunne]

Sportsbet I think

I'll go with theirs then . . . others can debate if we stick with it.
