Regardless, thanks for running this and tracking it!

Hahahaha It was more starting late than stopping early. I hear ya, though.
Thank you very much for running this! I, unfortunately, will not be able to attend STL this year. Whoever gets the pass - have a beer for me!

It should be as it is in baseball. You should have to have a minimum number of picks to be eligible to win the grand prize. Maybe 100 would be a good place to start.

Thanks for running this. It was enjoyable, and I know it had to be time consuming. Looking forward to playing again next year.

I would agree with a minimum. I like the idea people can climb in later in the season, but there should be a sufficient number of picks to be the overall winner. IMO, Valleyclimber should be declared the winner. Just my two cents, like I said, I enjoyed it and appreciate the effort you put in it.

Yeah totally with you guys on the rule changes. Being the first time I didn’t know what the hell I was doing.

Next year the rules will probably be...
Must pick:
(1) Minimum 50 games AND the final week
OR
(2) Minimum 100 games

Thanks for the fun contest. Good way to keep engaged with what other teams are doing.

Didn't participate but awesome idea! You should contact Elgin and the mvc offices and see if they would sponsor you next year with a ticket/hotel combo.

I think 100 might be a bit high since I just picked the conference games and had 88 (wonder why it wasn't 90?). I do agree with the required minimum though.
I nominate Valleyclimber as winner.

Hey, thanks for the votes on being the long-term winner. Considering how absolutely crazy the Valley was this season, thought going at just under 70 percent for 196 games was pretty alright.

Anyhoo, thank you MissouriValleyUnite for running the pick 'em contest (it was fun and good to have a bit of competition for us Valley fans). Alright, I'm soooooo looking forward to watching the Arch Madness games....YES!!

ROCK IT MVC!

I agree Valleyclimber is the person who earned top billing.

Valleyclimber...winner

Plus, he always wrote his anecdotes within each pick. Always fun to read.
