I know I'm a little behind on tallying points. At the latest, I'll have the GIG spreadsheet updated by this Monday.
For now, here are the final questions for 2021's Game Inside the Game:
1) Basic Predictions: Your answer for EACH question will be in two parts. FIRST, pick the series winners. If you choose the favorite, you get one point for the series win. If you choose the underdog (according to seeding in parenthesis) you get 2 points if they win. THEN, try to nail how many games it takes for the series to be completed (4,5,6, or 7 games).
Sample answer for all questions below: Blues in 4. Oh... wait... well... you get it. If you nail the correct number of games, you get an extra 2 points IF the team you picked wins. If the team you picked loses the series, you get nada. Example: you pick the ACLs in 6, but the Rum Runners win it in 6, you get nuthin'.
Remember: seeding is in parentheses:
A) Dogs (4) @ Bums (1)
B) Miners (3) @ Brewers (2)
C) Rum Runners (4) @ ACLs (1)
D) Maniax (3) @ Kraken (2)
2) Keep it going - same deal. Pick the next round winners and games played. Points based on seeding continues.
A) Dogs/Bums vs. Miners/Brewers
B) RR/ACLs vs. Maniax/Kraken
3) And one more time... (seedings based on W/L regular season records... the only possible tie between WS teams would be if the Miners and Rum Runners both make it... in that case, the CO will tell us how the top seed is at that time, so just pick one for now):
Frick winner vs. Landis winner
To eliminate any confusion on how to format your answers, I'll answer these questions personally right away in the next post.
Good luck!
