Figured we need a fun game that we can play each week so here is one i stole from another forum. For the next 13 weeks we assaign a different person (does not have to be owner or GM) to assign handicaps (predictions saying who will win and by how much for the gambling challenged) for each game that week. Then based on those handicaps players will bet their "chips on the team that will think will win using the assaigned handicap. Please note that if you are the handicapper (person assaining the handicaps that week) to make your predictions by halfs. What I mean by that is say Tecmo vs. Bearphins don't say Tecmo by 17 say Tecmo by 17 1/2. This is so that their will be no ties and always winners. For example if it was the game above and you bet on Tecmo but they only won by 17 or less or lost you would lose but if Tecmo won by 18 or more you would win.

I am thinking that you will start off with 1,000 "chips" for the first week and bet from their. Oh and you do not have to bet on every game only the ones you wish.

Bottom line is if you want to play post here.

I think I misunderstood the whole concept. I don't really get under and over and all that. I don't think I would be a good one to do this.
