This area of the site provides three main functions for players, and additional
functions for pool administrators:
1. Enter Picks
Choose the teams you think will win each game.
Be sure to fill out the tiebreaker game information,
if any, at the bottom of the page, then hit the submit button. You can
make picks for future rounds by selecting the round from the pick list
at the top of the page and clicking the "Change" button.
2. See All Picks (by all players)
Once the picks window closes you can see picks for all players in your pool.
The picks display sheet updates dynamically as games are completed,
so you can see at a glance which teams are winning, and which players
are still in the running to win a week.
3. Peek at Picks
Only the administrator (or those who know the Pool password) can peek at the whole
pool's picks. Normally, you wouldn't want pool members knowing each other's
picks before making their own. This "Peek" page was developed by request for
the administrator to help make sure their pool participants picks were
complete.
4. See who's missing picks
Easily find the players in your pool who have not yet made their picks, and send them an
automated reminder note.
5. Fix Picks
Here's where you can change historic picks of your pool participants.
This page can be used in a number of different ways. For example, if a
participant does not have access to the Internet, you can enter their picks for them
here. Or, if a pool member has touble entering their picks for whatever reason,
have them email their picks to you, and you can enter them after the deadline. Or,
if there was any mistake for any reason, you can fix it here.
A word of caution!!!! This utility can be very powerful AND it can be very
dangerous. We strongly recommend that, as an adminstrator, you secure both your login and
pool passwords. Furthermore, we also recommend that you print off and keep a copy of the
final SeePicks page with the whole Pool's picks for each round BEFORE the games get underway.
Cover your butt with a paper trail!
