bcprs1 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 THE CONTEST HAS STARTED. YOU HAVE UNTIL FRIDAY NIGHT AT 7PM EST TO SUBMIT GUESSES. Starting with the second round, I am running a contest for the rest of the NHL playoffs. The contest is simply to give your predictions for the quarterfinals, semi-finals and finals. Points will be awarded as follows: Quarterfinals - 1 point Semi- 2 points Stanley Cup- 4 points Rules: 1. Once the first round is over, I will post all the matchups for the quarterfinals. Once I do that, you can start posting your predictions. 2. You can make edits up to when the puck drops at the start of the first Quarterfinal game. Any edits made after that and you will be disqualified. 3. Winner is whoever gets the most points. Tie breakers will be determined by the number of total goals scored during the Stanley Cup finals. Whoever comes closest to the total. (this is not like the price is right, you can go over the total). If still tied, winner drawn from a hat. 4. I am going to give an example post to show what I want your guesses to look like. 5. Winners get to choose between some really good stuff. Valued at around $20- $30 6. Contest is open to everyone.

That's most likely because the HTML standard normally calls for multiple consecutive whitespace characters to be displayed as a single space. Try enclosing your ASCII-bracket diagram in tags.

z28in82 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I figured the oilers were prime for a let-down after beating detroit but I guess we were both wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omegamatrix Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Congratulations, Omegamatrix. Are you interested in becoming the next general manager of the Bruins? They're looking, you know LOL Thanks guys for the support and especially you bcprs1 for holding the contest. It was fun albeit short. I'm going to pick up some homebrew supplies as I have a lot of the homebrews that I need already, and Reflex is not available yet. I have some proms though that are begging for some nice clear cases. It's going to be a tough next round for the Oil, and it's going to be interesting to watch. I still can't believe Ottawa lost. So without further ado: Ode to the Sens They came They skated They lost... The end By Omegamatrix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
