there are a few teams that are going to play this week, jets, rams, bills, broncos, panthers, saints, vikings, basically all teams still fighting for a playoff spot. the game of the week will be the jets vs rams.

here's the playoff scenarios for week 17

I knew the ones still in the playoff hunt would play. I was wondering which teams that had their positions locked up would still play.

Week 17

Miami vs Baltimore

Minnesota vs Washington

Detroit vs Tennessee

NY Jets vs St Louis

Cincinnati vs Philadelphia

San Francisco vs New England

Cleveland vs Houston

Green Bay vs Chicago

New Orleans vs Carolina

Pittsburgh vs Buffalo

Tampa Bay vs Arizona

Atlanta vs Seattle

Kansas City vs San Diego

Jacksonville vs Oakland

Indianapolis vs Denver

Dallas vs NY Giants - 42

We should make something like the top 5 make it to the playoffs or something. So whoever finishes in top 5 (for example), they would make it for the playoff picks, the others are just out and can do it for fun. This is the best way I can think of doing it.

It would be quite dumb if everyone joined in, it would mess up the competitiveness which this is.

What do you guys think?

I think last year we included the playoffs just like regular season except there would be a third report after the games were done for the week. You would have the overall score (regular season record + playoff record), the week score (record for the week), and the new report would be overall playoff score (record for the playoffs). The Neowin champion would be the winner of the year to date score (regular season record + playoff record). Tie breaker for the year to date would be the guess of the superbowl score.

For example:

Playoffs Round 2:

This Weeks Winner Is: jmole!

jmole..........................4-0 <---- Results from round 2 picks

Playoffs To Date:

jmole.........................7-1 <----- Results from round 1 + round 2 picks

Year To Date:

jmole.........................158-90 (+275) <--- Playoffs score would be added to this

Or if you want we could have a: Regular Season Neowin Winnner (don't add playoff picks to year to date), Playoff Winner (based off playoff picks), and Overall Winner (Regular season picks + Playoffs picks)

Edited by jmole
if we limit who can pick, then I think we should only allow the weekly winners to pick the playoffs.  if we don't limit who can pick, then jmole's idea works fine.

If you want to limit people to the playoff picks, then it should only be the people have participated all 17 weeks. Oh well, it should be up to boog to decide, he is running the show.

I finally found last year's thread, we could do it the same way: Link.

if we limit who can pick, then I think we should only allow the weekly winners to pick the playoffs.? if we don't limit who can pick, then jmole's idea works fine.

585192076[/snapback]

hehe.. haven't we all been the weekly winner atleast once? :laugh::

how about we combine both ideas and i'll add my two cents:

160+ wins and your in the playoffs

reg season winner

playoffs winner

overall winner

    • "I think in the immediate absence of a partner to apply relief" In the words of Sterling Archer... "Phrasing!"
    • For me, the fundamental problems with these "smartglasses" is that they really don't work well for people with significant prescriptions and massively up the price if you use attached lenses if they have displays, and if they don't, then they're not actually "smart" anything, rather just connecting to your phone and relaying voice to an AI. In a few cases like this, they throw in small cameras to feed video to the AI. All around, these feel like both a solution looking for a problem, and the problems it tries to solve seem more easily solved by different approaches and designs. Oddly, if the rumours are true, Apple may actually have invented something for once and it kind of does this right: put cameras in ear buds and manage the interface to AI exactly as most of us do: tapping on an ear bud and saying "Hey Google" or "Hey Siri." That makes them compatible with almost everyone, can double up as a hearing assist device, an impaired vision assist device, a "smart" device... and answer your phone and play music. That just seems like a better solution all around.
    • Usually the bigger ones with many fixes/changes take a few, theyre an exception to the rule most likely
    • If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia
    • I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
