Football Pickem Pool

In deleting lots of data in prep for the new season it's possible that you will see an error message when getting back into make picks.   That's not normal and we plan to fix that, but -- just in case, we wan't to address it. 

1.  After you are logged in, look for your group name to be visible in the League Info area on the left.   You need to make sure you are pointing at your group.  

NOTE/APOLOGY:  When you join a group, this will automatically be set for you.  The reason this may not be the case now (during the start of the season) is because we removed the preseason data and it was possible that your group was pointed at that data -- which is now gone.   Therefore, it's possible your account is pointing at something that no longer exists.   We'll improve this next year, but for now, you need to make sure you select your default group.

 What you should see...

(it should say the name of your group, not YOUR_GROUP :)     If it does not say the name of your group, then you need to either select it or join one.   Just to cover the bases, let's assume you have no default group.    To select a group, go to the Control Panel and click on the Select Groups icon.     From here you will have two options, which is a good thing:  Option 1:  Pick a group that you are already a member of or Option2:  join a group.     (In League you can be a member of as many groups as you want  -- but whatever picks you make, those will apply to all groups)

2.   Now that you have a default group... Go to the Control Panel and click on Your Group Members

When you click Your Group Members, you will see all the members of your default group in a list which includes their image, the number of picks they've made, total points they may have ...   this is where you can confirm you have indeed made your picks.   For a 16 game week, you should see a 16 in the Picks column.   In a "Thursday week", you might only see a 1 there for some of your group members.  This means they only made the pick for the first game assuming the PICK WINDOW will reopen for the remainder.

The best way to make sure your picks are saved is to click Make Picks.   This will show you what picks you have and will give you a chance to "optimize" based on what others have done.    (To learn more about how to gain insight from others, read about Pick Snooper )
