By the way... looks like we finally got an interesting MNF game. And not because I'm a homer, either. It's the first time two teams with winning records played each other on MNF since week 11's Bills (5-4) vs. the Patriots(9-0). And week 11 was the only other time in which both teams had more wins than losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second Place: Mojo 11pts. Third Place: *Riverhippo 10pts. Fourth Place: Tacobob 10pts. Fifth Place: SteelEagle 9pts. Sixth Place: IceStorm 1pt. * - Riverhippo wins Tier 1 tie-breaker with Tacobob So, as was the case with last season, order of finish will determine selection order for the playoff rounds of this game. And so, here are the rules for the NFL Modified Elimination Pool Game PLAYOFF Challenge!In each round of the NFL playoffs, all teams playing games that week will be part of a selection pool.The HIGHEST ranked player will select their winning team for that week first, then the next highest ranked player, and so on until all players have a unique team picked. For the purposes of the NFL playoffs, players will NOT be allowed to select the SAME team as anyone else. This is why our 'regular season' mattered. It set up the picking order for the playoffs.After that week's playoff games are done, those who picked winning teams will get to pick teams the following week. All those who pick losing teams will, as in the real NFL playoffs, be eliminated from further playoff action. The game will continue either until there remains one single winning player or the end of the Super Bowl, depending on who 'survives' each playoff round. It is also possible with this system that, under a certain set of circumstances, that no players will remain.Each week of the Playoffs is basically a 'new game' with the changing 'Selection Pool' so players are free to choose different teams for each proceeding round.The Playoff Selections will be 'open' after the Minn-GB game ends and the playoff matchups are settled.Good Luck to all!Gerrard will be first 'on the clock' when the Selection process begins. I will make a post to signal the beginning of the selection process later today. When your turn comes, please select quickly so as to give those behind you in the selection order a fair chance to pick before the playoffs begin on Saturday. I don't want to enforce time limits but I will have to IF players 'drag their feet' too long in picking. GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hippo Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 As we start to draft for teams in Mojo's playoff, let me start this other playoff game.I'll start, so everyone knows how this'll go. Everyone can particpate, there is no seed, no requirements, no advantages, no disadvanatages. Anyone can join in.Before we start, know the playoff perameters. 6 teams from each conference. 8 division winners and 4 wildcard teams. Seeds are awarded to teams based on season performance, higher seeds get home field advantage, seeds 1 and 2 get a bye in the first round.Here are the seeds for the 2015-16 season:NFC1. Panthers2. Cardinals3. Vikings4. Redskins5. Packers6. SeahawksAFC1. Broncos2. Patriots3. Bengals4. Texans5. Chiefs6. SteelersThe playoff schedule is:WildcardNFC 3v6NFC 4v5AFC 3v6AFC 4v5DivisionalNFC 1v lower seedNFC 2v higher seedAFC 1v lower seedAFC 2v higher seedChampionshipNFCAFCSuperbowlOk, now it's time. Here's what we need to do: Predict the playoffs in full. That is the objective. For every game you get correct in the first round, the wildcard, you will get 1 point. a division game is worth 2 points, a championship game is 3 points, and correctly picking the superbowl champion is 5 points. The losing team does not matter, what you are predicting is the winning team. That's it.I'm going to make my prediciton here. Please make your prediction in this format. You should know how matchups continue by who you predict will win the previous week. As soon as the first wildcard game begins, all predictions will be final.RIVERHIPPO:WildcardSeahawks beat VikingsPackers beat RedskinsSteelers beat BengalsChiefs beat TexansDivisionalPanthers beat SeahawksCardinals beat PackersBroncos beat SteelersCheifs beat PatriotsChampionshipCardinals beat PanthersBroncos beat ChiefsSuperbowlBroncos beat CardinalsThose are my official predicitons. If you have any question, feel free to ask. When you are ready, please post your playoff predictions in this thread. You have until Saturday.

Mojo Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Folks, is it ANY surprise that River, the eternal Broncos fan, chooses Denver to win the Super Bowl and Steel, the ultimate Seahawks fan and creator of the 'SteelEagle Standings', chose Seattle to win it all?

Mojo Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Gerrard has chosen Kansas City, it's now my turn to choose and I cannot pick the Chiefs. So instead, I will choose.. the Seattle Seahawks. It's now River's turn and he cannot pick either Kansas City or Seattle. NEXT will be Tacobob, then Steel, then IceStorm.

There are 256 regular season games, but everyone's win-loss total adds to 255, and I can't understand why. I'm not going to take the time to go back and find the errors, but you are more welcome to do so if you want. Also there were a few times when players failed to choose in time. Instead of recording no loss for absent pick, I record the failure to pick as a loss as well (which means cryote should be (10-245)). The scores are all official, however. Sorted by number of wins:riverhippo - 159Triple B - 156mojopony - 156tacobobman - 149raritydash - 148steeleagle1989 - 147skarmory - 146Ice Storm - 144cryote - 10 And that's the end of the regular season. This challenge will continue with the same rules into the playoffs. As a reminder, it appears the same rules will get the twist of having fewer games to play, meaning it's possible getting all 4 wildcard games correct this week will result in the 50 point 'get all games correct' bonus. I don't know for sure that this is how it will work, but we will find out. If this is how it works, then this effectively means it's STILL anyone's race to win. Good luck to everyone, the first wildcard games are on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojo Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 River has chosen the Pittsburgh Steelers! Tacobob, you're on the clock now and you cannot pick the Chiefs, Seahawks or Steelers. Next is Steel and then, IceStorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
