Wildcard Weekend Pick'em

[hothouse_corn]

I set up the wildcard weekend pick'em as against the spread instead of straight-up. The spread is provided by ESPN (Caesars Sportsbook by William Hill) as of 9:30pm CST today. I don't plan to update the spreads as the money roles in and they move.

I need to go back and change the tie-breakers, but it should be ready to go in a few minutes.

Does anyone want to help me out in determining if the pick'em module took the spreads into account with awarding points? I don't know if I need to subtract/add the spread to the home team point total or not, and I'd like to get as few you done fucked up reactions as possible.

Right now, we've got a four-way tie for first unless I need to go back and change the scores to include the spread. I'll wait wait until I hear from some folks that I got it right before I go into the tie-breaker calculations.

I think the line on Colts Bills was Bills -6.5 so people that picked the Colts should have won.

The rest are right.

Thank you, that's what I thought, too.

It looks like the spread was covered or straight up wrong for the rest of the games.
