How The Hell Does a Contestant Have 3 NHL Games

How does Seawep 95 have 3 NHL games picked for tonights Dec 9th games,when it's 5 PM.Why doesn't he have to pick a college basketball game,he has plenty to choose from?I realize when a league has no games to pick cause all the games have already started,you can pick multiple games from a particular league.But the only way he could of done what he did,is if Covers put out only NHL and NBA games,and then waited to post NCAAB games till later,that's kinda BS.

I picked 3 NHL games and one NBA game...because at the time, it was my only choices.

@BrazenBurrow

 Must be nice, I'm not blaming you or Seawep, I would do the same thing if given the chance. But if you are going to run a contest where everybody has to pick a game from each sport, why leave out one of the sports when you are posting all the games. You're giving some contestants a distinct advantage over everybody else.

@WilliamLagosII

 If you made your picks when he did, you could have done the same.  Do you understand all the rules of this contest?  

@magicman1642

 Ya,I understand every rule. Did you read my post #3 about if you are going to run a contest where everyone has to pick a game from each sport, that you should put all the sports that are going to have a game that day up at that same time.I understand if I was making my picks when it was 1st put up, like he was I could done the same thing (exactly like I said in post #3). But that's only for contestants who happen to be watching on Covers at the exact same time as they put up only 2 out of the 3 leagues who are playing games today. Every other contestant who isn't watching for when they only put up 2 of the leagues, is at a disadvantage of having to make picks from all the leagues.

@WilliamLagosII

 Excellent¡­ well try not to lose sleep over the free contest.

How would you know? It doesn¡¯t even let me view anyone¡¯s picks. 

@Captain Lock

 Ya, it don't let me check any previous picks either besides what someone picks for the day it is. If you go to the main page and click view under their profile it will list what picks each contestant has made for that day only.

@WilliamLagosII

 Yeah. To see the previous picks, you must click Detail, but that is broken at this time.

@DeaconBlues2525

 Ya i figured it was just broken at the present time,I remember the last time they had the race you could see what everybody had picked. Good job on the race so far Deacon, and good luck going forward.

Ok¡­I¡¯m chiming in¡­FREE contest or not means absolutely nothing. The basis of this contest is to find out who is better at picking winners from all sports (NBA, NCAAB, NFL, and NHL). Not simply a race to 200 wins. If the basis was first to 200 wins, then don¡¯t have guidelines like 1 pick per sport. If there are contests in all (4) sports on a day, then you should only be allowed to make (1) pick per sport. The only exception is¡­.if it is a Tuesday and the NFL isn¡¯t playing, then you should be allowed to make a pick a second pick on a sport that is playing. There should not be any other exception. Any other exception, goes against the basis of the contest.

@TIPOF-THE-SWORD

 I understand that way of thinking also Tipof. There is a reason they have it where you can't pick all in 1 sport and are supposed to pick 1 in every sport available, cause they know there is an advantage to taking 2 hockey games that are at -150, and 1 hockey game at -120. That's their rules, that's why i don't think it was right that day when they only put up the hockey and NBA basketball games, but didn't to put up the college basketball games till later, which let contestants avoid "their rules". Now to be honest I will check to see when is the latest game that starts in a sport, and if I don't like any games in the sport. I will wait until all the games have started where I can't pick in that sport anymore, and choose a game in a sport that is still available, but that I have already made a pick in. Like on a Monday if I don't like the NFL game I will make my 3 other picks, but wait until the only NFL game starts and becomes unavailable, and then make another pick in a sport I have already make a pick in. And that's kind of skirting the rule also, but I'm also only getting to select from a very limited amount of games. And let me clarify, like I said in my post #3 I'm not complaining against Seawep doing it, I would do the same thing if given the chance. I just don't think Covers should of given any contestants the chance to skirt "their" own rules, even if it is a free contest. It ain't hard to keep it fair, and just cause it's free, doesn't mean it can't still be fair to everyone.

@WilliamLagosII

 Thanks. I was slipping fast before this last week when I went on a crazy run. First time I ever won a weekly Fall Race prize. I guess I will finally find out what is in the Covers Prize Pack. I think yisman has to be the favorite at this point. I mean, I would take the field against him, but no one player. His history combined with his current position has to make him the favorite. I had a bad week in NFL and dropped to 20th place in the CBS NFL pickem contest. I like Covers better. It's too hard competing against 75,000 contestants in the CBS contest. Thanks Covers for running this contest.

Alright, you turkeys. If you wait until after 3pm, you don't have to make a college football pick, so you can make the same sport picks if you need. And quit cryin about it

@GypsyCowboy

 Wow, thanks for that info Einstein, if you actually read my 1st post that's all explained. But that's not what happened on the day I'm talking about. On that day there were 3 sports going on and not a game had been played in any of them, it was like 5pm and all of them had games starting pretty late. But this contestant was able to pick 3 hockey games at -150,-150 and -120, without picking from 1 of the 3 sports.
