Okay, here are the rules and objectives. $5 to get in and winner takes all. Any questions, message me
Objective
The objective of Fantasy Election 2006 is to guess the results of as many Senate races as possible for the 2006 General Election.
Rules
1) For each US Senate Race you call correctly, five (5) points will be awarded to your point bank.
2) If you wrongly call a Senate Race you are penalized two (2) points and they will be deducted from your point bank.
3) One week prior to the general election, on October 31st, the latest poll numbers that have been conducted will be recorded for each race. If there is a favored candidate (meaning 5 points ahead of the closest opponent) those will be considered “upsets” if the favored candidate loses the election. Anyone who has chosen the candidate who won over the favored candidate will receive ten (10) points in addition to their five awarded as set forth in rule #1.
4) Primaries in the month of September will be considered bonus points. Participants may guess at the primary outcome. If the participant chooses BOTH the two main party nominees then one (1) point will be awarded to that person’s point bank. No penalties will be imposed on the bonus primary races.
5) If a tie occurs between two or more participants the Connecticut election will serve as a tie breaker. All participants must choose what they think the outcome will be in Connecticut election with percentage points included.
ALL PREDICTIONS FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION MUST BE IN BY FRIDAY NOVEMBER THIRD AT 11:55PM
PRIMARY ELECTION PREDICTIONS MUST BE IN BY THE FRIDAY PRIOR TO THE ELECTION
