2011 CA Superbowl XLV Pool

[Montano]

The 2nd Annual CA Superbowl Pool to help the troops, as well as have a little fun :)

I thought we should get an early start this year so that more people have a chance to play, and everyone has plenty of time to ship their entry sticks.

There will be 100 squares. The cost of 1 square is 3 handmade cigars. We will start out with a limit of 5 squares per person. If there are still squares available on Jan 6th, I will open them up to anyone who wants additional squares.

All packages must shipped (post tracking numbers in this thread) by Dec 31st. If your package is not received by Jan 14th, your square will be turned over to the troops. Shipping information along with all necessary sign-up information will be emailed to you.

300 cigars total.
60 Go to the troops off the top.
240 Payout to the Quarterly winners.

First Quarter - 60 cigars
Second Quarter - 60 cigars
Third Quarter - 60 cigars
Fourth Quarter - 60 cigars
No Overtime for this pool. The score at the end of each quarter determines the winner.

By selecting squares, you are committing to sending cigars. Do not play, if you aren't going to pay !

The pool is done online. You need to register (free), and if possible, please use your CA name so we know who is who. Once registered, you pick the squares you want and then lock them in. Once all squares are filled, the pool will be locked and numbers assigned by the computer.

We had a lot of fun last year and I think this year will be even better !! :noon

So for those who would like to participate, please PM or send me an email with your name and CA 'nick'.

Edit: CONUS only

I just picked up 5 squares.

I'll get my entry sticks out within the next few days. Assuming I don't pick up more squares first. :)

[Montano]

74 squares locked, which leaves 26.

Let's get it filled, for the fun and for the troops !!

[Montano]

I'll be locking the pot after this weekends games. The total winnings will be divided by the number of entries, minus the 60 sticks for the troops. All empty squares will belong to the troops as well.

[tenbaseg]

You know you want a couple squares! C'mon, lets get this thing filled up.

I will lock the pool on Friday. That way if someone takes the last few squares, they will have time to get the smokes in before the game. If no one takes them, they go to the troops :)
