|
|
NFL Week Nine
This week's prize is sponsored by Ultra Products:
Up for grabs is a brand new Ultra Products 850W X4 power supply unit, as featured in this review and as listed at Tiger Direct.
With the X4 series of modular power supplies, Ultra Products is back on the scene that they started. The strong electrical specifications, low noise operation, fully modular cables, and 80 Plus efficiency are all refinements that prove they knew what was needed to come back after some time away. With units rated from 400W to 1200W (and eventually 1600W), they have also made this new series an option for people with a wide range of computing needs and budgets.
Scoring:
» 5 points per game for picking the winner
» 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. The point differential takes the absolute value of the difference between the actual score and your predicted score for each game, and adds them all together.
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 participants in the USA and Canada 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 screen shot 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 prediction pages may show an overlap during this period, the scores and standings will not get mixed up.

Thanks for round 4 and hopefully more to come.
Your review has me a little worried about the person who will win this though. I like to keep my magic smoke away from my electronics

- I think this is a great PSU - and wish I still had it to be used! I just got a little nutty on the load testing. Should have looked around a bit more to see the reasonable limits of 5V and 12V testing at high levels.
Anyway - This is round four, and I am pretty sure we'll get to at least two more rounds. Have to try and expand the participation to get more sponsors interested, though. Maybe a post a link / refer a friend bonus of some sorts... |
