Basically it would be either $25 or $50/square and you'd have the same square(s) for all three games (though each game would have different numbers).  semi final games would be worth a little less than the championship game.

we'd have to sell 100 of them, so $25 might be the better price point.  logistics can be worked out later, just need to know if there is enough interest to make it worth my time to setup and track.

I'm in for a few if we get enough interest. Might have to solicit on the football board, as I'm not sure how much traffic this sub really gets. 

I have a few friends that love to gamble who will buy squares 

Disregard... Im stupid

I, too, am a degenerate and would be in for this. 

Since I'm not winning the bowl challenge, I'm in to recoup my losses. Will there be a square for Covid forfeit?

oh sure, now you guys express interest.  i'll setup a google sheet.  pm me your email address and i'll add you to it (please use your surly usernames when picking your squares).  lets do $25 a square so we can hopefully fill it up in short order.

@BigOrange1 Thanks for putting this together. If it looks like all the squares can’t get filled, I have some non-surly friends who might want to play.

if this doesn't fill up by friday would all who have signed up so far be good with it just becoming a squares game for the national title game only?

Fine by me, but maybe do halves or qtrs?

How are empty squares handled?


Can we lock the players and randomly assign the remaining squares?

yeah this isn't gonna fill up so it'll just be for the national championship game only.  i'll make a post on the football board tomorrow night or saturday to attract more attention. 

I’ll buy some more squares to get us closer

I don't see a PM from you.

@BigOrange1

Did you want someone to mention this on the main football board to get more traffic?  I wanted to ask before stepping on toes.

I posted a thread that no one replied to lol (though one person did PM me and join).  I'd be thrilled if you wanted to help bring more attention in any manner.

i have a couple of options as it doesn't look like this is going to fill up:

option a - try and sell 50 and then just give everyone double entries and cut the payouts in half.

option b - turn it into a superbowl squares sheet and spend the next month trying to fill it up lol.

thoughts?

I vote for option B

yeah it's gonna end up being a super bowl squares game.  last year i ran one here and we filled it up so i'm confident we can fill this one up with almost a month head start and it already 40% full.  

if you have entered and don't want to do it for the superbowl, let me know and i'll remove your entry and refund your money if you've paid.

Sounds good for the Super Bowl.  Thanks for sealing with the hassle.

i'm good with SB squares.  can you change the title of the thread?  that would probably pick up more hits and interest if it were changed to reflect its SB squares now

i can't (or at least i can't figure out how to) change the title and OP.  maybe @RGBIII can assist?  i'd even be fine with you deleting this thread and i'll just start a new one.

@immamac knows better than to give me tech responsibilities, he can handle lol

  • immamac changed the title to Any Interest in a SB Squares Game?

I was a verbal for CFP but then never paid because I am a lazy slapdick.

We're doing $25?
