An interesting way to be your points, I'll allow it. So, to confirm your betting each of those set of points on each of those players scoring the most of the four?

Williams: “Crap! Since when is a stiff arm defense legal?!”

Most points: Williams- 10 points

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

I’ll re-post

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

UPDATED POST!

Whiteside: “I hang to the Rightside”

bet 61

Bonus: I bet 51 Williams (Forrest out) outscores the others - beat the tip off

 

[Chris Craig]

the “points bonus” only applies to Forrest scoring more points. If he does, I get a bonus and if he doesn’t, you take away the 51 points.

As far as my three “captions” if one is selected as the winner - my corresponding points apply. Now if this doesn’t work for you, and since tip-off hasn’t occurred, I’ll use the “Whiteside: I hang to the Rightside” quote over the others.

so if I were to win the Caption portion, it’s based upon my Whiteside quote. If Forrest outscores the others, my bonus bet is 51 points.

As your bet stands you would only get the points if the player scores the most points of the four. You would lose the other points. If more than one player of the four ties for most points you would get the points for those players and lose the points for the players who didn't.

So if Elleby scores the most points you would win double the 15 points you bet. If Williams did you would double the 11, Whiteside the 61 and so forth. You would lose the points you bet of the other players who didn't score the most.


You can only win for one caption anyway. It's based on the amount of likes for your caption(the post itself). You dont bet on your caption winning. You only bet on the bonus question. You pick who you think is going to score the most and bet what points of yours you want to.

You don't bet points on your caption winning, only the bonus question. My apologies. I realize I wrote the instructions in a confusing way and edited it to make it clearer.

Elleby. "I'll be back!"

I bet all my points on WSU Cougar CJ Elleby.

ok. All a bit confusing to me but I play for the fun of it! so I’ll then bet 51 points for the Williams! (Forrest is out) player out scoring our players.

i thought we would bet our points on this final caption - like the Jeopardy Final Question. my bad
