Nice run in the bowls CARSON
Before I look as though I am only saluting him, I am sure there were others who had great runs as well, but this guy posted plays well in advance and his record speaks loudly. If you followed, good for you. I may be wrong, but I saw no request for PAYMENT up front or WHEN HE WON. Exactly what a respectable poster would do for the community. Maybe he can be compensated or will request payment (deserved) next year if he chooses?
Additionally, I commend you HIZZ, DOUGHBOY, KUNDOG and a number of other not mentioned for your FREE play contributions, records, and transparency to what you have done, and are doing for the Pregame community.
...No luv for those (im)Poster's who hide behind fake #'s, 10* ratings, with a few posted coin flips, 1* rating etc. Wow, thanks for your contribution. However, really getting old seeing those begging for Pregame members to email, follow on Twitter and pay them. Based on what??? I understand your efforts, but if I offend you ROCKSPORTS, UDFLYER, DHAYES, and other unmentioned wannabes, crying "look at me, look at me, buy my plays" I suggest you earn your stripes first:
Ex. In a good business plan, people want to see numbers to support your idea. Same in here. Show us the picks, rate those picks, and back them up with accurate record tracking. It is that simple.
1) Post your plays on here for a short time. Say 50 - 100. (the ones that you are giving out to your members/followers).
2) Keep accurate records (at least for 50 plays in a particular sport), and if that's not good and you need, break it down to your last run 10-1, do so - thanks Richard Mayfield.
3) If you lost, own it. It will be ok, b/c we see your honesty and transparent means. Thanks CaseyWard (nice 7-2-1 run).
4) If different ratings on plays, then note them. Maybe suggest what they represent (i.e. 1-5 or 1*, 10*, 50*, 100*).
So many ways to promote and market your picks as a seller instead of your sneaky creative lingo like "my 3* are 10-4", when you don't revel that your 10* are 3-11. Or, pay me only when you win. Hilarious.
If you can't do this, and/or keep accurate records to assist your endeavors later on, then maybe ask another Pregame guy to assist. 13Aces is good at it, and maybe you can barter for him to track your records, win%, and dollars won/lost for your pick service. Who knows?
In closing, thanks to all of you FREE posting guys (not mentioned) for your contributions. Whether they are winning or losing just show them. Maybe some of us can still profit by your contributions and take the opposite side. But we can only do so and say great contributions IF WE CAN SEE YOUR STREAKS/RECORDS.
