Something to remind me to make my picks [grin1]

Does it easily show the home team when one makes picks?

UPDATE
On the MyPicks page, if you put your mouse cursor over a team, you will see how many have picked that team for that game.

Is there a way to speed up the picking process? It takes so long to get through all the picks because you have to wait for it to process each pick before you can make the next one.

I like it. It is just another tool. No one will change their selection when they see 95-100% of the people are selecting a particular team just to go against the grain. Games that are 50-50 or even 60-40 may have someone switch sides but there will only be a game or two like that and it should not have any real impact on the final outcome. Plus you don't know who made the choice. You would be switching your selection based on the choices that others made and end up with the same pick as the leader any way so win or lose there would be no net gain.

Really? You think it's slow to make picks? That sucks. I've been making them on my phone, tablet and computer and while at work with the slow ass network it there is a hesitation, I haven't experienced any "so long" moments while going through them.


Even that being said, I do want to change the process entirely so it is more efficient and by more efficient perhaps it will be faster for you (and others who might feel it takes too long)?

Right now when you make a pick, it updates the database, then retrieves the schedule and your picks and displays them again.

I'll post back in the next few days with something gooder.

    bboystyle (4m) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
    Mucky Tundra (13m) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
    Zero2Cool (34m) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
    beast (42m) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
    packerfanoutwest (54m) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
    Zero2Cool (1h) : I see what you did there Mucky
    Zero2Cool (1h) : dammit. 3:25pm
    Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
    Mucky Tundra (1h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
    Mucky Tundra (1h) : Yeah baby!
    Zero2Cool (2h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
    Zero2Cool (3h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
    beast (3h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
    Zero2Cool (4h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
    Zero2Cool (4h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
    packerfanoutwest (4h) : ok I stand corrected
    Zero2Cool (4h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
    Zero2Cool (4h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
    beast (4h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
    beast (4h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
    Zero2Cool (4h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
    beast (4h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
    beast (4h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
    beast (4h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
    Zero2Cool (4h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
    Zero2Cool (4h) : I literally just said it.
    packerfanoutwest (4h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
    Zero2Cool (4h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
    Zero2Cool (4h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
    packerfanoutwest (4h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
    Zero2Cool (5h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.
    packerfanoutwest (5h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in
    packerfanoutwest (5h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker
    packerfanoutwest (5h) : if bucs win out they win their division
    beast (5h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
    packerfanoutwest (5h) : falcons are already ahead of us
    beast (5h) : Packers will get in
    beast (5h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen
    packerfanoutwest (5h) : they still are in the playoffs
    packerfanoutwest (5h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7
    Zero2Cool (7h) : We can say it. We don't play.
    Mucky Tundra (8h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints
    Mucky Tundra (8h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games
    Mucky Tundra (8h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.
    buckeyepackfan (9h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.
    Mucky Tundra (18h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan
    beast (18h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings
    bboystyle (18h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in
    Mucky Tundra (21h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
    Mucky Tundra (21h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses
