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.
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

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.


Keep bringing MORE suggestions.
