    College Bowl Pick em - $50.

    The contest will be run here.

    http://www.rtsports.com/pools/colleg...hp?LID=1004231

    It may prompt you to send a e-mail request to get in, I'll reply as soon as I can.

    Standard Bowl Pick Em set up. We will use confidence points and we will all pick games Vs the spread.

    $$ will be escrow @ leaguesafe.com - link below. Settings are majority payout approval with a 0% commish rake.

    https://www.leaguesafe.com/join/1918...e-bowl-pick-em

    Please let me know if you are in, what your handle is on the site if it's not the same as your PFA handle.

    We already have 11 signed up and 9 paid with 4 days to go. Payouts will be determined after the contest is closed on Saturday but before the Sunday Bowl games.

    Best of luck to everyone and by all means post any questions or issues here.

    No problem. Call up league Safe and ask them to deposit it into your account.

    Color me a little surprised. I figured I'd get a few to join up from here. Anyway we got 13 paid already and I'm expecting at least 7 more by kickoff.

    Druff didn't verify the contest + isn't holding the funds

    Obviously Todds Rep is iron clad, but it's not like I'm holding the $$ either as a relative unknown. The funds are being escrowed with league safe and the distribution is set to majority decision. I'd argue that league safe is iron clad as well, but perhaps most feel differently?

    a lot of us got hustled last year in a charity scam, so Todd either escrows anything on PFA like this, or shut it down,
    So I was kind of waiting for word from him either way.

    I'm pretty sure he has seen this by now, so is that is a good sign that he is ok w/that escrow website.
    let me check that site out, but if it works I'm like 90 %.
    I'll let you know before end of day.

    I was around to see what happened with the whole 22Q scam, just awful.

    Regardless of any feedback Todd may or may not give I'd make your judgement based on your trust in league safe. If you think it's shady by all means pass.

    I only posted this here as there were a few guys in the PFA wagering thread who seemed to be interested in a bowl pickem challenge. Truth in advertising a majority of the guys signed up are from the footballguys message board (see link, I'm The Ref) where I've been active for over 10 years.

    no reflection on you at all, or loan safe or anything for that matter...................

    I was just saying that he either escrows these things, sanctions them, or doesn't allow them to be advertised on his site.
    so his complete absence from this thread is kind of baffling to me.

    OK - so last call. I know a few of you have signed up. We got 23 paid up.

    Most of the debate on how we will allocate the $$ will take place at this link, but Im going to push to have this settled right before 2PM.

    For anyone who did get in the payouts are as follows assuming we dont have a late add or two.

    $600 First
    $300 Second
    $150 Third
    $100 Fourth
    and $50 for last.

    Much obliged sir. But as I said from the start, the trust you would need to have is in league safe. And as far as I can tell they are just about the gold standard when it comes to escrow services, at least in the fantasy football world.

    Congratulations to the winners

    $600 First timschochet*
    $275 Second The_Mean_Machine
    $150 Third MrStupor*
    $75 Fourth kid_kong*
    and $50 for last. JaxBill*
    (and $50 refund for someone who didn't get picks in on time)

    If you participated (even if you didn't win) I'd ask that you log onto league safe review the payment allocation and approve payment.

    Many thanks.

    Daly, AKA The Ref.
