yessir @FearlessF !!!!  the point is to make it simple and effective, fun and lucrative... there are no hidden trip wires.  you pick 12, that simple.  those who choose the most correct split... could be one guy, could be 3/4 the field.  keeping that from happening will be my job and by choosing the 12 games less likely to be easily chosen. 

y'all can check the link, (it's also in the right sidebar for now 'group of 12') and dry run the game to see how it works.. i basically plop it in a spreadsheet that calculates it based on the key (actual results for the week) and spits out who did best.

I checked it, but didn't know I could dry run

Should I invite a few of the guys in my group?

if you choose the games at the bottom (it has the game and a drop down with three choices) it will send a copy of your picks to you and to me, and i record them- while you have a recording of them too... then, we wait for the results to actually happen.

i can call it done, now.  it looks decent on a computer, but focus was on mobile.  if you've been there you may need to hold shift hit refresh to clean it up. (or dump the cache on your phone/tablet). 

you DO have to register... there is no way around it.  it will take like 30 seconds tops. 

as said, I'd appreciate you guys sharing it with friends... ought to be a fun little exercise, testing your ability to pick 'em and make a few bucks!!

the second product on the top... the Week ZERO Newsletter is where the 'game' resides.  it's $10 to get in... you can also, if you'd like, scroll down to the LITE Version, which is the same games to be chosen, but free to access.  It will demonstrate how its played or tell you how you would have done in real competition.

I invited a couple guys.....

Beau and Loren, they run the pick 6 contest I'm in.  Hopefully they will register and perhaps invite some others.
