No
cost to enter. You just have to be a customer; ie: have purchased something other than the free samples sometime in
the last year or so.
We start a SuperBowl Lottery thread and everyone can take one guess on the final score.
One guess per customer and once a score is guessed, it is taken and nobody else can use that exact
score.
Winner gets $100. gift coupon. How about that?
Just let me know what you think? Don't start
guessing scores here.

Yea, just figure out how to determine
who wins, because it is likely the exact score won't be guessed.
ex: Do you have to get the winner right, or
is it just closest to each team's points?

Hey Einstein! It says "don't start
guessing scores yet." :-)
That is a problem about determining the winner. How about we add up how many
points off a contestant was on each of the two teams' scores; then whoever has the lowest "points" wins. EG:
Let's say the final score is Pats 21 Eagles 28; then Einstein has a "score" on our game here of 21 and the fact
that he picked the Pats to win doesn't mean anything. OR.... we could eliminate everyone who picked the losing
team to win and then do the "sum of the off-points" thing with the remaining folks. OR???

This sounds good, Bruce: .... we

remaining folks. OR???
The winner should be someone who picks the winning team.
But anyway you decide to do
it, you know there will be participation. Or as it was once said, "if you build it, they will come."
Pick the (closest) final score of the SuperBowl (this Sunday, isn't it?) and win a $100. gift coupon at
Love-Scent.com. In lieu of an exact match, the winner will be the person with the *closest* scores... AND who
predicted the winning team acurately. See example above for details.

Should we post it here
now??? I would recomend a total score plus predicting the winner. For example if the eagles win 24-21, then you
would want to predict the total score to be 45 with the eagles winning. Trying to figure out who is closest
otherwise will be a lot of work for you Bruce.
Yes, post here now.
MMan.
Good idea, but let's stick with the original plan. It's not so much work and will be a more accurate judge of
who's the best guesser.

"An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest."
--Benjamin Franklin
Lets see if me have the right
idea...
The winning team + the exact scores WINS, and if there is NO correct exact scores...
The
winning team + the one who's sum is closest to that of both scores added together WINS, yes?
Never argue with ignorant people! They pull you down to THEIR level, and then they BEAT YOU with experience. Who said that!? I don't know, but tis gold I tell'ya!!
picks the winner and the lowest sum
of the amount of points the person was off for each projected score.
2 off on eagles score and 5 off on
patriots is 7.
0 means you got the exact score, and would obviousl be the lowest sum.

Yeah, like he said. He didn't
get that "Sage" ranking for nothing apparently.
