**CLOSED** Losers League Contest - Session One

[NDN]

This year, we are taking a more relaxed approach with the Losers League contest (in large part due to a lack of interest compared with previous years).

The rules remain unchanged, but the selection process becomes a bit more simple!

Just to refresh everyone's memory, this is how the contest works:


Selections are due by Wednesday at 11:59pm ET - NO EXCEPTIONS!

The contest starts with the games of Sunday, Sept 11th (the first Thursday game of the season is ignored).

To be eligible to participate in the first session of this year's losers league, your entry must be received by Friday, September 9th at 4:00pm ET!

The concept is simple; select an NFL team to lose each week (point spreads are not a factor).

You can select a team only once during each session until the playoffs. During the playoffs, the 'any team any time' rule applies, meaning you can pick any team you'd like regardless of whether or not you used them during the regular season.

If your selection wins ... YOU LOSE !!!!!

If your selection ties ... YOU LOSE !!!!!

If you repeat your selection ... YOU LOSE !!!!

If your selection is not in by 11:59pm ET on Wednesday ... YOU LOSE !!!!

If you lose once, you fall into the consolation bracket.

If you lose twice, you are a true loser!

After it is all said and done there is one winner of the Championship Bracket ($50) and one winner of the Consolation Bracket ($25).


With all of that said, if you would like to participate in this year's Losers League contest, please click here to send me a private message with your selections (https://www.nodepositneeded.com/forums/private.php?do=newpm&u=5649)!

Throughout the season, please continue to send me a private message each week with your selections and remember to get them to be before the deadline! Because we are taking a relaxed approach with this contest, there won't be too many reminders, so it's up to you to get your selections in on time each week! If you could kindly use a subject line in the format of "Week One Selection" each week I would greatly appreciate it!

This will be the official Losers League thread, so please check here for a list of everyone's selections each week (posted after the deadline) and to do some bragging!

Good luck and have fun!

It's official; I am IN!

[NDN]

By the way, this is the hardest first week of selections that I have seen in my time in the Losers League (which extends beyond the NDN contests), so I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of us heading to the consolation bracket after week one. Choose wisely!

Good, so when my Bills pull off the win this week, all you doubters will be gone. And Glo? I thought we were tighter than that. This will come back to haunt you and the Sharks this NHL season.

[eejit101]

NDN changed his pick!!!! FIX!

[NDN]

NDN changed his pick!!!! FIX!

What? I never told you my pick. How on earth would you know if I changed it (which I did not)?

We should ban you from the contest for making false statements. I'll put it to a vote. Please reply if you think we should ban eejit101 from the Losers League for questioning my ethics!

[eejit101]

So you didnt tell me you were picking Dallas???? :)

[NDN]

I picked Dallas in my local Losers League (the original Losers League)....

[eejit101]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmpf.

Lol, you can pick whoever u want!!!!

Im not picking a team with a brand new style in week 1. Cam newton could throw for 4 TDs, who knows!

[eejit101]

Need to point something out.....

Who the hell picked San Diego? Surely out of all the games, thats one of the easiest home wins ever!

[tjntaco]

Hey EEjit, I'm the one that picked San Diego. It was all part of my plan. I wanted to get a good seat in the consolation bracket. AND IT WORKED!!
.....................ok, you're right. That was stupid. But you shouldn't kick a guy when he's down. Or just cuz he's stupid. That ain't right.

[tjntaco]

Dear NDN I think anyone questioning your ethics should DEFINTLY be banned. So I vote YEA!......Banishment......Off with his head

[eejit101]

You cant ban me. I am like boris....

[Ringo]

Dear NDN I think anyone questioning your ethics should DEFINTLY be banned. So I vote YEA!......Banishment......Off with his head

not an amusing subject for me. sorry I can't laugh about banishment like Eejit can.:puke:even though I am off of triple secret probation! I think!

[eejit101]

Lol. I wont get banned! Well i might, if i do something wrong.

And LL contest looking good for week 1!!

[NDN]

You may click here for standings and past selections. (https://www.nodepositneeded.com/ll/llstandings.php)

[eejit101]

Early risks work so well in this. In the 2 that i won (the only 2 i played!) I think i picked the Pats to lose early in one, but it freed up a lot of games later on in the season!

[Ringo]

Yeah but San Diego is great on the road:boxing_smiley:

[eejit101]

Yeah, but the pats? 600+ yards vs a not bad defence?

Sand diego with no good kicker, and didnt look offensively that good.

Pfft, its one of the easier picks.

[xxAAKKxx]

im in but starting week 2 can i do that

[Ringo]

My pick is in

[xxAAKKxx]

mines in for week 2

[NDN]

im in but starting week 2 can i do that

We've allowed it in the past so I'll allow it this time too (you'll be in the consolation bracket though).

[eejit101]

I really want someone to pick the PAts. PLZ

[PANAMHIEST]

I am gonna do the biggest balls of the week pick in week 2 and say that san fransico will lose to the dallas cowboys:lurk5:. Sending pick in now:)

[eejit101]

Going balls deep!!!!!!!

Lol. thats a literal 50/50 bet. I was gonna add it to my parlay but couldnt pick. SO nearly went with the under. But didnt.

[PANAMHIEST]

Going balls deep!!!!!!!

Lol. thats a literal 50/50 bet. I was gonna add it to my parlay but couldnt pick. SO nearly went with the under. But didnt.

I think its gonna be +/- 7 in someones favor. Should be a good low score tough beat em up running game as san fran has a good cover in defense but not a great QB.

[herlis]

i sent my pick already but can i still send another pick to change my earlier pick? thanks!

[NDN]

i sent my pick already but can i still send another pick to change my earlier pick? thanks!

Yes. You can change your picks as often as you'd like as long as they are in before the deadline (I will use your most recent pick as your final selection).

[eejit101]

Sunday, September 18

Kansas City @ Detroit

Definitely not. You're still in the top bracket.

You only lose on a tie if the game ends in a tie (after OT's).

[PANAMHIEST]

This might be my un doing but since all the games look to be fairly tough matchups with a potential for some big upsets I am gonna go out on a limb here and say that the Pittsburgh Steelers will Lose to the Houston Texans.:svengo:

If I would'a got my np, which was Minnesota for that week, to NDN on time-instead of 2 hours latter, I would still be in the winners bracket. Would'a-could'a-shoud'a. At least I'm still in the next bracket.

I am solid till week 13 now

Im sorry. But.....


LOLLLL.

You are solid till week 13? Therefore, if you made a bet on 12 teams in a row and won them all youd be about $50k richer minimum. For $1.

PM me the picks and be a man! I wont share. Im just gonna keep them each week, and see how solid you really are!

That would be such only if we were using point spreads since most of my picks are 10-1 underdogs or 10 cents on the dollar 12 teams would pay about 4-1 odds

[eejit101]

Pfft.

,essage me them. i swear on my life i wont show anyone

Ringo can take down the Championship bracket if the rookie Ponder can beat the currently undefeated defending Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers!

Would be a wild way to take down the the top prize!

Picking Minnesota at home against undefeated divisional rival is just plain suicide in the NFL

Look for Minn to win it

[eejit101]

Whats with the weird colours!

[NDN]

Picking Minnesota at home against undefeated divisional rival is just plain suicide in the NFL

Sorry Ringo. I love my Vikings, but even I knew better than to have any faith in them finishing a game out.

To their credit, this was the most complete game I've seen them play in a while and it was fun to watch Ponder most of the game.

[eejit101]

was a good game, thought they might have a chance at the end. They shoulda gone for it tho.

[Marakesh]

it would be a lame way considering my pick was in but you screwed me out of a chance because I was 2 hours late

:puke:
:icon_bs:

[Arsenal28]

Last I checked, two hours late was considered too late. Not sure how you got screwed there.

this is so wrong
there is only 4 left and you are gonna do this??


well between this and your refusal to even try to do something about that guy who has all the high
scores in arcade(and YES IT IS CHEATING)...I think I'm gone




Hi Marakesh,

Just in case you missed it, here is what the rule states:

"Selections are due by Friday at 4:00pm ET - NO EXCEPTIONS!"

I put the selections up approximately 30-minutes after the deadline had passed (not on Saturday as you suggested).

I did put the Pick The Winners selections up on Saturday (which you might have been referencing), but that's because the deadline for that contest is Saturday evening.

Regarding the arcade, I make every effort to ensure that our contests are fair and that the scores are legitimate.

I'll concede that some of the scores on some of the arcade games are flawed, but that's only because I strictly focus on the games that we use for contests and I do not pay any attention to the scores for the other games (which reset every 2-weeks or so anyways).

For our contests, I select new games each week that I think are reliable, but since I do not develop the games myself, I cannot say with 100% certainty that they are without flaws. Therefore, when a flaw/bug is brought to my attention, I act as quickly as possible to replace the game or rectify the problem.

I find it quite interesting that you would lash out at me for apparently allowing members to bend the rules in the arcade games, only to ask me to bend the rules for you in the Losers League contest.

You've been around long enough to know that we do things as fairly as possible here at NDN.

As for Herlis, he has been a member since 2006, he spends a great deal of time on NDN on a daily basis, and we appreciate his loyalty.

We also appreciate your loyalty, so hopefully you can understand that it's only fair that we abide by the rules that we implement and you'll continue being a valued member of our community.

Thanks for your understanding.

It's easy to get upset if you are a Colts fan losing 7-62.

[NDN]

Standings have been officially updated!

[eejit101]

Hmmm.

I propose a vote as to if his pick should have counted.

You did that with me once!

Who was his pick?

[NDN]

Get your picks in before the deadline that the rules clearly state and all will be well.

[PANAMHIEST]

Marekesh, i feel for you bud, last year i was going well and also forgot to put in my pick thinking i already had. Now this year i put in my pick almost every monday and i think once on a wednesday , i learned the hard way lol.

[NDN]

Selections have been updated a little early since everyone got their picks in on time!

Anything could happen in the Championship bracket with three different teams selected; should be a fun weekend of football!

Losers League Standings & Selections (https://www.nodepositneeded.com/ll/llstandings.php)

[eejit101]

Hmm. Im not a big fan of any of those picks right now....

Arizone played ok vs Steelers, and are at a not that good offensively playing Baltimore.

Cleveland vs 49ers... 49ers are not that good. Cleveland do suck though.

And Jacksonville coming off a big win. vs Houston who are very hit and miss..



miami is the most likely to lose IMO

[Ringo]

I took Jacksonville because they played Monday Night and then go on the road.
Toughest thing to do in the NFL.

Plus Houston looks to be firing on all cylinders.

Jacksonville can't hold the Texans to under 20 points and the Jags can't score 20 points

[eejit101]

As a proud owner of Arian Foster, i hope he goes off again.

[NDN]

Standings have been updated (no changes).

[Marakesh]

Looks like we all lost
?????

Sorry about that! Picked the wrong color! Standings have now been updated with the correct color!

[PANAMHIEST]

wow everyone was right again lol. The arizona game was a bit of a nail biter there till the end though. I dont know what happened in the NFL yesterday but about half the games looked liked it was junior varsity HS against super bowls teams.

[eejit101]

Yeah, with the Rams being the 2001 Patriots.

NDN has giant balls picking SD at home but I have to agree with the pick GL

[NDN]

For some reason I have always been anti-SD. But I have also been anti-GB all my life, so I don't know what the hell I am thinking trying to root for either of these two teams!

[eejit101]

I hate the SD pick. Its scary.

[PANAMHIEST]

I hate the SD pick. Its scary.

ya i left myself sorta baited on the hook too i think. All depends on which dallas team shows up sunday.

[eejit101]

Browns suck. Youll be ok

[Ringo]

Browns suck. Youll be ok


Dallas plays Seattle:conehead:

[eejit101]

Oh. even better. Seahawks suck too

Important Notice:

Thursday games begin this week, so the deadline for making your Losers League selections for both sessions 1 & 2 is now WEDNESDAY BY 11:59 PM ET!

[PANAMHIEST]

Pick is in, your gonna be surprised, its a tough one i think considering they are undefeated at home but facing a team that absolutely has to win and really shouldnt even be losing.

Ha you are forced to go with the Jets I think?

I figured out my picks weeks in advance because of this week here.

The easist pick I have is Arizona to lose at Philly and I am nervous about it.

Looks like NDN has Arizona left too

GL Panam

FYI I took the Jets already in LL vs NE too

[PANAMHIEST]

haha you know your football eh ringo;) Ya gonna have to get er done this week, if not im am going down in flames with brady.

I saw there was a round 2 of losers league, but havent seen it since, when does this start?

[eejit101]

Ill give you a clue.... its in the losers league 2 thread. in this section!!!

Thursday 17th tho, for a normal answer

[NDN]

The LL selections for session one have been updated:

Losers League Standings & Selections (https://www.nodepositneeded.com/ll/llstandings.php)

[eejit101]

Pan and Marakesh might be out this week

[NDN]

Looks like Oakland pulled off the victory last night and the LL is now one person lighter.

[eejit101]

Told ya'll!

[Ringo]

No reason NOT to expect 8 upsets this week like last week.

Except for last week, favoring road tams in the NFL is a very risky business.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Seattle and the Jets both win at home this week. Go Philly Go Philly

[eejit101]

Stats for you....
No team with a losing road record has ever advanced to the Super Bowl in its 40-year history, and of the 80 teams that have competed in the championship game, only six finished at .500 on the road. Denver, at Super Bowl XXXII in 1997, was the last team with a non-winning road record to participate in the title game. The combined regular-season road record of the 20 franchises that have played in the past 10 Super Bowl games is 112-48, a mind-blowing .700 winning percentage.

14 teams are around or OVER 0.500 since 2009. Thats nearly half.

Its all about WHO they are on the road too.

[Ringo]

The 49ers are undefeated on the Road and so is GB.

I am starting to have strong memories of 2 superbowls in the 80's
49ers vs Cinncy!!!

FYI Baltimore and New England are both 2-2 on the road, Ravens losing @ Tenn and Jac and New England losing to Buf and Pit

[eejit101]

Baltimore are not that good though

[PANAMHIEST]

Pan and Marakesh might be out this week

Ya i picked a tough one again but if brady and the patriots lose this one, then i wasnt meant to win this. If you seen any of the talk around the league leading up to this game, its gonna be a huge game. Cant wait

[eejit101]

is this SNF or MNF?

[PANAMHIEST]

is this SNF or MNF?

patriots game is sunday night

[PANAMHIEST]

Looks like either me or NDN can win this by the end of tonight. The cardinals won against the eagles, wow that is unreal. Good game Ringo

[PANAMHIEST]

if NDN seahawks pick keeps whooping up on the ravens, its gonna be just me tonight with the patriots. Brady dont let me down baby!

Question, what happens if all three of us get our picks wrong??

[eejit101]

Then i win. As i rock.

[PANAMHIEST]

Oh boy, seahawks won too, now its all up to me to win:sifone: Good game NDN

[eejit101]

Picking home teams to lose is bad. Ty Tennessee for showing me that.

[Ringo]

looks like a 3 way split of $75?

[NDN]

Panam is in good shape thus far.

[PANAMHIEST]

Panam is in good shape thus far.

I remember a huge comeback the jets had against the cowboys not too long ago, so this game isnt over till the walk to the lockers

[NDN]

I'm pretty sure it's over...

[PANAMHIEST]

I'm pretty sure it's over...

Ya i agree, the pick 6 sealed the deal i think

[PANAMHIEST]

WOOOOHOOOO!!!Finally won one these buggers:party:

[NDN]

Standings have been updated!

[Ringo]

Since it's just you and me NDN can I just post my picks here?

obvious pick for you too I would imagine

Tampa Bay losing to Green Bay

That's my pick for week 11

[Ringo]

Thanks man. Heck i hadnt noticed that wow. Isnt that the game they lost to the cowboys? I had to pick a few tough ones so i could have some breathing room later down the line, didnt think at all that this would be won by week 10.

[eejit101]

Congratz Panam. You deserve it!

As you have no chance in hell of winning fantasy :)

Historically, the Losers League usually ends around this time. That's why we have a second session that starts up around this time.

[eejit101]

10 weeks was pretty long. The alst one i won was 10 weeks. Ty Houston!

P.S. Ringo, I took the sticky off this post so we don't confuse everyone in session two.

[NDN]

Looking like I handed this to Ringo on a silver platter at the moment...

[eejit101]

Yup. Ringo gets 2nd.

[NDN]

Yup. Ringo gets 2nd.
