ยป 5 extra points (10 total) per game for picking the exact score
The winner of the contest is determined by which ever entrant has the most points at the end of all games this week. If the contest should end in a tie based on points alone, the tie breaker will be determined by which entrant has the lowest point differential. (Point differential is calculated by taking the sum of actual scores as compared to the predicted scores over the course of the week).
Rules:
1. You have until kick off of each game to make your picks, once a game starts you will not be able to change your pick.
2. To play you must be a registered member of the Bigbruin.com forum.
3. One winner will be chosen based on the final score of the contest.
4. At the end of the contest, the winner must provide their shipping address, and the prize will ship out right away.
5. This contest is open to North American participants only, and shipping is included.
6. Rules subject to change.
Tips:
1. Your picks aren't set in stone until game time. You can edit your predictions for any particular game as often as you want right up to kick off.
2. Once a game starts the software does not let you see your predictions. Your best bet for remembering your picks is to take a screenshot of the predictions page or to write them down.
3. Scores will be updated when available and are listed at the bottom of the game's page.
4. Monday Night Football is included, but the upcoming week's games will generally be listed beforehand. While the game and predicition pages may show an overlap during this period, the scores and standings will not get mixed up.
Please post any comments or questions in this thread!

From my understanding USB headphones do not require a soundcard. How is the quality and performance as compared to audigy2 or Xfi for gaming? Right now I'm very annoyed with creative and their vista drivers.

You're right... no sound card required. Look for a review soon!  |

I have a USB headset at home and love it. I use it every night for gaming, music, tv and movies. My only complaint is that I can only have an audio stream from one computer at a time  But then most people won't be running into that problem LOL |

You do make a good point. While gaming is my priority, I do connect the line out of my audio card to my stereo when watching videos.
I guess I'll worry about that AFTER I win this week.

You might as well play along to keep your skills sharp...  - If you win and want to decline the prize, that would be fine. |
