Ummm...…….you can't change your picks...………..

[BeanTown]

Thought I was picking home teams. But whatever wants to be done is fine with me. I had Rams-Chiefs and changed to Saints-Chiefs.

Now aren't you glad I alerted you to that stupid me.

After the first quarter, the Rams looked like dead men walking. What a great finish.

I don't know what he originally picked, I only saw it after the edit...and after kickoff. What I saw and what is recorded in my spreadsheet are Saints and Chiefs. That's who we have to go with since I can only go with what I saw.

It was Rams and Chiefs. Ask Scott or someone else who saw. It was also changed back during the game.

I'm not doubting your original picks. But you need to look at this from my perspective. I didn't see your original picks. I've been busy since early this morning and I didn't get back home until after the first quarter 2as over. I started watching about 3 minutes into the second quarter. That's when I grabbed my laptop and recorded the picks that I hadn't already recorded. I saw the edit, but I allowed it. And I allowed it for 2 reasons (1) because I didn't see your original picks to know what they were and (2) your edit was time stamped before kickoff.

I also have to look at your intention - who you really thought would win. You truly believed the Saints were going to win, right? You made the comment in your edit that you were going to go with both home teams. You can't say after the game you want to go with your original picks because someone pointed out the edit.

I'm trying to be fair to the other players involved. I don't care either way. If I win any $, I've committed to donating it to Safe Haven anyway. But if the other players agree that your Rams pick should count, I'll change it back. I'll let them chime in on that.

I told you I had a screen shot through PM. Why post rules David. Guess I can change up till gametime. Saints win I lose, and if Rams win I lose. I made my change back while the game was going on so you know to! I didnt change it AFTER the game.

Your edit time shows 5:20pm CST. That was either after the game or right as it was about to end. I don't know exactly what time the game ended.

Again, I'll let the players decide. Whatever they think is fair.

Edited to add: or if Leon wants to decide, I'll trust his judgement.

CONTEST CLOSED. Everyone will get their money back. I am really sorry for all of this. It is my fault. I tried to do something nice for the doggies and have a little fun at the same time and I get several PMs questioning my integrity. The last PM even questioned who gets the tax credit for the donation. Seriously? No good deed goes unpunished. Everyone will get a full refund this evening. At least the doggies get the $55 that came out of my OWN POCKET! I guess I should give someone else the tax credit for that too.

You can ask Leon if there is a history of edits stored anywhere. If so, you might be able to retrieve the original message.

A rule is a rule. Once you make a pick, you are locked in.

Yes!!! Aweome idea. My intention for switching 10 minutes before the game was I wanted to go with home teams. I did think the Rams would win though. I never read the rukes as I thought you could change your picks up till kick off or if David says closed for picks. So, my bad in that. Original picks were the Rams and Chiefs. Not that this is a big deal, but come mon man.
