^^^ Speaking of your blog, why da fuck you require Google logins? That's the only reason I have never been over there. I don't have a Google login and not sure I want to create one.

You couldn't do that with just a regular username/password set up?

Re: YTD results

I would love to do that, but i don't know how. It just asks me for permissions, I send an invite, and that is it. You can use any email as your google ID. It takes about as long as registering here. That said, you are not missing anything.., I am experiencing the same phenomenon we were discussing earlier... I closed it off to only about 40 readers, and all but a few of them have bitten the dust or lost interest... Guys would post a lot then disappear. I can only assume the money management monster ate their bankrolls. I might have to open it up again to get some new guys.

If I feel like I have something to say now, I tend to post it over here because it's more active.

I still read/like your blog, though. Keep it up!

A spreadsheet type deal with everyone's picks per event would be awesome.

Perhaps you should open it back up then. Some user turnover is natural but you have no exposure with which to replace the ones that fade away.

All we have to do is start a tracker thread for each event .Zak already does this for all the other sports sections .He also tallies everything up

I usually post here first, get all my analysis done here, then post my play over there. I would actually like to let it go, as I started it in order to get feedback from a handful of non shertarded people. I have this forum now, which I prefer because it is more active. I didn't know about this forum then or I would have never started it. I have like 2 or 3 readers that still post though and I like getting their opinions. And they won't come over here. I like to get Chaos' opinions, but he has his blog, so I can just check in there and comment, which I do anyways. I can post Charles' spreadsheet here. I think that Joe and Aussie_Jay are really good cappers though, and they refuse to come over here.

^^^ Refusing to come over here is gay. And makes no sense. Didn't you say it's more active here? What's the problem?

I have considered it a few times, but then again, 3 or 4 opinions is really plenty. I like to get feedback from a handful of guys I think can cap... and really any more than 3 or 4 is just confusion or repitition. The nice thing about having more guys is they point you in the right direction for fights to look at, so it takes some of the legwork out of it.

Its not like they rebuked the place, but one guy is in afgahanistan, and has just enough internet time to update his blog, drop a comment and email his mom. One guy just doesn't like the format and bs-ing... whatever.

I actually tried to shut it down once, but for some unknown reason, I feel a weird sense of obligation about it.

Well Afghanistan guy could just as easily make that comment over here. So I don't see the problem there.

As for the other dude, well, he just needs to get a sense of humor.

Re: YTD results

True. I am shutting it down.

If they really want to know my plays, they know where to find me (most of them don't come for the plays, but for the discussion though). Still, they know where to get it.

Fin.
