Confidence NFL Tipping
The Main Prize Money comp. Each week the AE10 member shall deem to select his/her selections via the official AE website, the winner of each NFL regular scheduled season game with a confidence rating of 16 (most confident) to 1 (least confident). Total score from each of the CR values from the winning teams selected will determine the AE member's weekly points output.
Weekly Deadline is yet to be determined as there will a cast vote whether most AE10 members care to keep the option to either 5-15 minutes before kick-off from the earliest scheduled game/s each week or allow for kick-off time for each game.
edit: From Week 8: All AE participants to LOCK in their 1-32 Power Rankings as default. #1 for Most preferred.
Current Week 1-4 Ruling as Follows due to a spanner in the works for the POWER Rankings Depth Chart not being ready before Week 1.
For those who FAILED to submit their weekly selections on the AE website have incurred the LOWEST SCORERs score of the week MINUS 1.
This season, the AE will feature on facebook with another avenue to check weekly points update scores/ on the run AE comps/NFL score updates. Along with this thread to keep everyone in the know with summaries of each AE competitions.
3XKO
This next competition is a Knockout format. A three chances contest where you start with selecting 3 teams who you expect to WIN in Week 1.
To qualify for the following week, you must have correctly predicted at least one winner of these three teams. Elimination of the 3XKO contest comes in a process of THREE STRIKES against your name. A X strike counts against your name each time you lose a chance. *Restriction: Cannot pick same selected winning team in back to back weeks.
Default conditions for the 3XKO (pronounced THREE STRIKES KNOCKOUT) comp is that you shall receive the BEST ranked ROAD Teams of that particular week from your (or ESPN) POWER RANKINGS default if you miss out submitting your selections on the official AE website. In the case that you have not selected any Road teams from the POWER RANKINGS default system, you shall receive the best ranked (from) 4th,5th & sixth Home Team of that week. *Bear in mind, the 3XKO consecutive week winning team restriction still applies. In the case of failing to submit your power rankings: you shall default your 3XKO picks.

THREE from EACH Conference Will advance to the ND Play-offs commencing in Week 14.
In the event that the highest of the conference WCQ's have the same weekly CR score, they shall be awarded the same scale points but the following will drop back a number (or two): ie: WCQ3 scores 95 along with WCQ7 as the highest Week 13 CR total, each get 10, next highest will get 8 points... ect..
ie: WCQ9 scores the highest weekly score (amongst the WCQers) then he gets 10, WCQ1, 6,10 each score equal Second Most, they receive 9points but the next highest will get 6. ect.
