 Posted: Tue, 25 Sep 2012 08:18:06 Post Subject: Win a 8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport 1600MHz DDR3 Kit |
  |
|
NFL Week Four
This week's prize is sponsored by Crucial... manufacturer of industry-leading solid-state drives (SSD) and DRAM memory upgrades for desktops, laptops, servers, workstations, and other systems.
Up for grabs is a 8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport 1600MHz DDR3 memory kit... As seen at the Crucial.com online store and the Bigbruin.com shopping pages. This dual channel 8GB kit is rated to run at 1600MHz and has CL 9 timings for speedy performance!
The Ballistix Sport Series was created for mainstream users and enthusiasts. These gaming modules feature heat spreaders for thermal performance-along with standard timings and voltages, making this a reliable, quality RAM option that is ideal for maximum stability and compatibility.
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 games have started, you can see your predictions and how they compare to actual results by clicking your name as listed on the main page of the game.
3. The main page of the game shows cumulative season stats, which have no bearing on winning the prize for any given week. Just ignore them! To see weekly scores - click here - and scroll to the current week.
4. In this past games for a week were manually added on Tuesday mornings, so people were forced to wait until at least then to make their picks. To free up my time, all games for the entire 2012 season are entered into the database already. The way it will work is that the application will feed out games one week before they are to be played. So, for example, on any Sunday you can already start picking the games for the following Sunday. But, if you do that you have to remember to come back to pick the following Monday game, since that won't be fed out until game time on Monday.
5. Winners have two weeks to claim their prize - otherwise it will be forfeit.

Don't blame Big Bruin and the sponsors for the NFL, they have no control over the outcome of the games and that's part of what makes this the best hardware on the internet! We love you! Sexually!

Oh man, guilty. You'd think I'd be in a hurry to avenge last week.  |

Congratulations skarydrunkguy 
I predicted the Bears over the Cowboys because I thought you would pick the Cowboys to win. If that happened, then I would have won based on the point differential. Oh well. There are still 13 weeks to go  |
