The week 1 results and week 2 games are posted in the Debate section of the site, click the “Debate” link in the left nav bar. The forum is “Are you ready for some football”. I will be updating this on Tuesdays going forward.

Make sure to enter your picks as a new topic. There are currently some issues with having more than one reply (see below). Also replies are not threaded so you could inadvertantly see those who picked before you. You’ll have to register to post. Make sure to put in a valid email address. I may create a user group at some point.

Weekly picks and suicide picks are due by midnight on Saturday, September 18.

The forums are now up and running on the new server. You will need to register in order to post.

Link is located over there to the left, labeled debate. (If there is no left frame click here.)

Update: The forums are set up, but replies are not working correctly. It looks like it’s a recent bug that the phpbb guys are working on. I’ll need to do some followup to see if I can’t get this thing working correctly.

Update2: From reading the support forums for phpbb there is a bug when the web host uses Zend Optimizer earlier than 2.5.1, which ours does. I have submitted a trouble ticket to our host to upgrade to the latest version.

Ok, I can’t even count the number of things wrong with this story. If there are people this stupid around we need some type of radical Darwin-esque event to thin out the herd a little.
