    Hey everyone,

    I spent some time this morning and created a full playoff pickem system!
    [​IMG]

    Now when ever you view a playoff bracket there is a "Cast My Vote" button below the matchups where you can pick the team and how many games you think they will win in.

    When you vote, i keep track of your team and games, and automatically make a post if the "Playoff Break down" thread exists. I only make one post per person so it posts whatever your first pick is and will edit your post if you change your pick.

    I keep a tally and created a new page to show the results of everyone's pick and score. Currently i have players 1 point for the correct team matchup or 3 points for correct team and correct games. Now below every pages "Standing" tab there is a new page for "Playoffs Pickem" where i show this leaderboard.

    Hopefully this bring a new level of interest to the season , enjoy gents

    @Tris10 you sir are the man. This morning I woke up and filled a sock with regret. No where near as the talent you displayed here.

    Does whoever gets the most points win some sort of a prize or something? I could be wrong, but I think with the real life NHL Bracket Challenge we do one with LG and the winner gets a platinum account I think. Would we do something like that here or just do it for fun?

    When you vote, it shouldn't respond in the thread of the serie.

    No plans yet. The reason is each league has its own scoreboard so for Xbox and psn there are 7 different leagues.

    I've added a place to see a persons pick, How when you goto "Standings" > "Playoff Pickem" you can click on someone's name and see this
