Valhalla Pick 'Em: 2023 Edition

Recommended Posts

We're back for another season of NFL Pick 'em!

Pick the winner and assign your confidence points for each game. If you get your picks in after the games start, you lose the highest point value(s) for the week. If you forget the Thursday night game, you lose the maximum confidence points for that week. If your post shows any editing after games have started, your weekly picks will be voided. Please make a new post or quote your old one and tag me with your edits. I prefer not to back in the thread to dig for updated picks.

Confidence points are used to give a different weight to each game in a given week. You'll assign a point value (from 1 to 16 if there are 16 games, 1 to 15 if there are 15 games, etc. during the regular season) to each game based on how strongly you feel about that game. If your selection is correct, you'll receive points equal to the confidence point value you assigned that game.

If you pick Minnesota to beat Tampa Bay and assign a confidence point value of 16, you'd get 16 points for a Vikings win, but 0 points if the Buccaneers win. You don't lose points for an incorrect selection. When posting your picks use the weekly lineup I have posted, this way the games stay in order and it's much easier for me to tally the score. Bold the winner and at the end of the line and put your confidence points in parenthesis/brackets. Here's an example of how it should be done:

Tampa Bay @ Minnesota (16)

Each week's points will be tallied, and the player finishing with the highest total at the end of the season will be the winner. In the event of a tie, as we had in 2021, player with the most correct picks throughout the year will serve as the tie-breaker.

Each confidence point value may be used only once per week. So, during a 16-game week, after you have assigned 16 points to a game your next highest available value is 15 points.

A tie is a loss and no points will be awarded, to anyone, for a tie game.

Reminders:

1. Please double-check your posts before hitting submit.
2. Please make a new post with your changes/edits and tag the me.
3. Editing of posts after the games have started will void your weekly picks.

Let me know if there are any questions or if I missed anything.

I'd consider @'ing people so that they get the notification. I noticed that worked for some people in the 5k game.
