    4285 ATB Points Pick the Correct Final Score Rangers/White Sox Sunday Night Baseball

    No one hit the ANA/TEX game but as you all know at ATB we like keep things going. So the pot goes up. Just like last time pick the final score correct win 4285 ATB Points this time. Every time no one hits the pot goes up 10%. Some hits goes back down to 500. Once a score is taken you can't choose the same one (first come first serve).

    Lets see if someone can hit it....

    i'm not surprised at all

    its not easy to do.

    although we are much more likely to get a winner doing baseball over basketball it could still go a long time without hitting with the amount of people in the contest.

    I disagree. we're getting over ten people picking. with baseball, there aren't so many common scores.

    Take any game and let me have 10 guesses at the score and I bet you I'd win more often than lose.

    if it was basketball then I wouldn't be surprised not having a winner after a bunch of weeks since the odds of picking an exact basketball score are extremely low.

    what do you want to bet?

    you must pick a different winner in half of them

    why would I have to pick a different winner? I said I get ten guesses.

    well, you're not going by what was said.

    I said there should be a winner. you said no. there are no such restrictions in the contest of only being able to pick one team five times. You can pick whatever score you like. So for a side bet, I want the same rules as the contest. I think that's only logical.

    pass. I'll do it for each Sunday night baseball if you want. Not doing it for the game with the hand-picked game with the highest total.

    I'd do it any day if you want but it'd have to be a random game.

    definitely not.

    I wasn't counting on you hand-picking the game with the highest total

    I bet I'd pick the winner more often than not, based on a random sampling, or picking every game on the slate.

    sunday night baseball is a random sampling as far as difficulty, because they aren't chosen based on the games with the highest totals, and that was where this arose from in the first place.

    You've been the one adding additional rules here.

    what do you have? do you have any sbr points?

    if all you have is ATB then we'd just do 200 points if I hit the score on at least half the games

    you will get your points i know i only show 200 but you will get 500 points

    after the last game goes final.
