I wanted 229 but I thought it more fun to leave a gap for a potential tie. In that case you would win by 23 seconds.
Why would you pick from the opposite captain?
We made our picks 23 seconds apart. I had already decided on my picks before I saw his. All I changed was the tiebreaker by 1 point to make it more fun.
That's ok. But he won't win and.
No problem. I'll win it again for Team International.
Just a captain's piece of advice don't copy from losers.
I just said I didn't copy his picks. We picked at almost the exact time and I noticed his tiebreaker as I was submitting so I switched mine by one point. How is that copying?
You had a 10 minute window. But as I said no problem 😜
I just want to remind him how worse he is faring as captain.
It's a good point. He probably should have flipped all of the picks.
Did you know about this Health and Fitness AMA?
I saw a post about it. This guy's pretty active on nostr, but he's not my cup of tea.
Fastest gun in the West
We will see how your aim is when these results come in. Having the same picks as me probably isn't a good omen. I think the best I have done is 1/3 so far in this competition. Although I have been making a lot of exotic picks (draws and underdogs) and didn't go that route this time.
2/3 not this week.
