Ok, so the season is over. Are we done then or are we extending it to the bowl games? I have the end of the season list. Didn't know if this is the end or are you doing the bowl games as well.

gobigred brought up the topic on the BS thread.

He asked about doing "all the bowl games", or just "pick some of them". There were only a couple of replies.

This is as good a place as any to discuss.

Is it just me or do we have 2 seperate questions going here?

Question 1: Do we want to split the season and the bowl games into 2 seperate tournaments?

Question 2: Do we want to do all the bowl games or do we want gobigred to select a certain number of them?

Is this how everybody else is comprehending this? I see some people answer for question 1 and not question 2 and vice versa.

Yeah, I guess there are two questions.

I can modify the Bowl Mania I created to suit peoples needs.

I kind of figured we could also do a condensed version Rep-Rewards Challenge here for our friends that have played all season with us, since there are so many bowls. Or I can let them in the Bowl Mania.

I have Bowl Mania set for "Straight pics", but I can change it to "Confidence points".

I'll participate if we keep the rep rewards going. I like the idea of splitting the bowl games into two sections or something and having two more rounds but if we just do bowl mania I could participate, unless you guys just want huskers

I have Bowl Mania set for "Straight pics", but I can change it to "Confidence points". (Either way is fine by me)

Sorry RA... I haven't checked out Bowl Mania thread yet. I just got home from the F'n eye doctor with the wife, she can't see worth a shit at the moment, I shall take advantage of that. She won't see it comin'.. lol

Question 1: Do we want to split the season and the bowl games into 2 seperate tournaments? Jed would it be easier to continue from where we are? I know there were some that missed a week here or there, that would most likely knock them out of the challenge altogether, wouldn't it?

Question 2: Do we want to do all the bowl games or do we want gobigred to select a certain number of them?
I haven't checked out all the bowl games, but I think it would be easiest to keep track of by doing all of em' wouldn't it? Maybe not... I would suggest keeping it simple for the person keeping track of this.

There are like 33 bowl games total.

That's a lot of work to go through and check each posters picks.

If we want to do all of them, I'll just open up the Husker SportsHoopla Bowl Mania for all and disney can do the counting.

If we are adding the bowl games to the regular season it would be easier for me if it was on here. More than likely not everyone in the bowl mania screen name from here on there. Then I won't know who is who. So it would be easier if it was on here.

I say we do all the games.

The "Entry name" in the bowl mania can be changed to match your screen name here.

For instance for the Husker SportsHoopla bowl mania (that I created), I am Red_Alert.

For the general Sports SportsHoopla bowl mania (that they created on the CFB forum), I am RedAlert (no space)

It had to be done that way because Sports SportsHoopla is using "confidence points" and I set Husker SportsHoopla up for "straight picks"

Your "entry name" on Bowl Mania is not the same as your "User Name" on espn.
My "User Name" on espn is visorstomper if I were to post on message boards over there.

You can join up to 3 different bowl mania groups with just one email account. Each Bowl Mania entry can have a different Entry Name.
