NBO: EPIC NFL Confidence Pool III

Since there seems to be NFL Fantasy League BIFs popping up already, I'll get this year's confidence pool started. This will be the third year, and I think the previous years' participants will vouch that it's a fun one. Last year we had 65 players, paid out the top 7 places, and over 1/3 of the participants won some beer.

It’s an NFL confidence pool. For those who have done one skip to the next section. Every week you pick the winner of each NFL game, OUTRIGHT (no spreads involved). This is where it gets tricky. You rank each game in order of your confidence that you will pick the victor. For example, let’s say there are 15 games. You rank each game from 1 to 15, with 15 being your most confident selection. For every correctly picked game you will get that many points. There are better guides online if you need more info than that.

How this BIF will work:

I’d like to get a minimum of 17 and maximum of 68 participants. There are 17 weeks in the season. Each participant will ship at least one box. Non-winners of the whole season will put up two boxes. The first box will be for weekly winners. Since every one has to put one in the pot, this box will be smallish. Minimum 44 oz. Max 72 oz. The second box will be larger and for season winners. Minimum 100 oz Max 200 oz. No restrictions on ratings or styles. Send what you would like to get if you won or try to hit target's wants.

Small box breakdown (weekly winners):

17-33 players - 1 box, with extra boxes going to season winners
34-50 players - 2 boxes, extras to season winners
51-67 players - 3 boxes, extras to season winners
68 - 4 boxes

Targets for the weekly boxes are assigned by me (not by who finishes last, as in some pools of this variety), based on distribution regions, for weekly shipping so we can have some beer **** during the season. Everyone will ship only one small box.

Large box breakdown (season winners):

17-30 players -1st gets 50%, 2nd 33%, 3rd 17%. At 30, it works out 13, 9, 5
32-39 players - we add 4th place and they get the first box, working backwards adding boxes to each winner’s take, one at a time, snaking back down. At 39 it’s 15, 11, 7, 2
41-51 players- we add 5th place and work backwards in the same fashion as last time. At 51 it’s 18, 13, 9, 4, 2
at 52 players - 6th place gets in on the action and at 65 players, 7th place. If we get a full field, which I think we will this year, payouts will be:

1st - 20
2nd - 15
3rd - 11
4th - 6
5th - 4
6th - 3
7th - 2

All season targets will be assigned at the completion of the regular season. Shipping can start immediately after and must be complete by Friday, January 29th (one week before the Super Bowl). This was a real fun BIF last year and I hope to get a full slate of participation this year. Lots of chances to win. BM me info if you're interested. Name, address, email and phone number please.
