Hank's Superbowl Pool
Because he complained about last year, I'm putting Hank in charge of this year's superbowl speculations.
Hank, rules and methodolgy are up to you.
Have fun.

Same rules as last year- I'm trying to find them- but 2 additions:
1 You can go over. It's absolute difference.
2 I can add rules to screw somebody after the game is over PROVIDED I can find a game show that uses the same rule.
Prize- 1 custom photoshop job
Anyone want other rules- let us know by Wednesday.

how about the basic rules, so we don't have to dig up long-ago posts?

I'll get them up- trust me for goodness sakes.
You pick one number for each team, say for example
Eagles 7 Patriots 14
The Rules
You may not pick the same exact score that someone else picks, though you can use one of the same numbers. e.g. the next person could pick Eagles 10 Patriots 14.
Scores are on a first come first serve basis as determined by the posting order. So if you happen to post a score at the same time as someone else, but em's post shows up first, you need to try again. Edit the post, note duplicate score, and then, and this is important, create a new post with your new guess.
All picks must be made by Sunday (Feb. 6) at noon. There is no editing of choices. Remember there is a time stamp when you edit something. Any edited post will be disqualified.
There is one guess per user. No socks, unless you want to use a sock as your only guess.
To win you must pick winner, then have the lowest absolute difference between actual scores and your picks.
Good luck.
Oh one last thing. Only post guesses on this board. Nothing else.
One other thing (sorry) the numbers above are not guesses. I won't be guessing.
The above is leagl from last year. I will only add that the rules are open until this Wednesday if people want to suggest some modification.

When does the picking open? I'd like to get the first-mover advantage.
ETA: None taken away, shifty.
ETN: Suck it, Hank. Give a complete answer the first time if you don't want follow-ups.
