Is it percentile, meaning that you are picking better than 57% of the participants?

As we head into the last game next Monday Night it is a 4 man race between @crs8975, @CycloneRulzzz,, @Dandy & @michaelrr1 .
@crs8975 & @michaelrr1 Make sure you enter the total points scored tie-breaker for the Championship Game (located at the bottom of the make picks page) because it's possible you guys end up tied for the lead.
@Dandy has the most points possible at 651 points.
We also have a battle for last between @hawkcy13, @NENick, & @Last @ 3. Good luck to you all.
@crs8975 what's your secret?
I picked Michigan, mostly because I went to Wazzu and (IMO) those stupid purple mutts are already insufferable. Does that help?With everyone's picks secret till they lock it's a guessing game as who to pick to win. Anyone with a shot willing to reveal?
If we all pick the same team to win and they do only one who can outscore me points wise is Dandy I believe.
Also, if I get that game picked correctly, it will leave me with a record of 22-21, which is a winning record. I'm gonna hang my hat on that one.
I wish I had forgotten I entered.
Actually, I can't complain at all, I'm in top 10 (at least for now) and that might be the highest finish I've had in the CF bowl contests.
Edit: I have a feeling I'm going to drop a lot because I think I have 1 point on the championship game. The meager chance I had at contending was blown w/ Texas loss to UW. I also put an insane amount of points on ISU over Memphis. I rarely put many on ISU games, semi-superstitious.
To start, thank you to BigJCy for allowing me the opportunity to learn and grow in bowl picking. And to my fellow pickers, good memories!
With said, I am announcing that I have decided to opt out of the FBS Championship pick, forgoing my remaining eligibility in order to focus on preparing for March Madness pools.

Pretty sure if Michigan beats Washington I win the whole thing.With everyone's picks secret till they lock it's a guessing game as who to pick to win. Anyone with a shot willing to reveal?

What's my prize for first placeWhat are you like the woman who wins the NCAA BB Tourney pool because they like the team name or colors?
Bragging rights... Check my avatar for the regular season crown. I didn't even see the bowl version. Good thing, I'm in 125k place nationally. I was top 100 nationally during the last 2 weeks of the regular season.Bump
Welp - I got my winning record (22-21). And I'm at the top of the bottom 1/3 of the participants. So...
Yay me, I didn't lose?
Yay me, I didn't lose?
I hadn't checked standings since being officially eliminated from contention.
Finished tied for 9th. Pretty sure that's my best since CF has done the pick-em. I can live with that!
