Threadpicks! Fantasy Shirt Picking League (Win stuff!!!)

MAKE YOUR PICKS HERE

http://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/embeddedform?formkey=dEhPblNNYmVRbmVkNzg5YnljbWFUQVE6MQQ

Hey Tshirt fans! You think you know what the best selling new shirts are going to be next monday? Here's your chance to prove yourself! Welcome to Threadpicks, where every week you make your picks and get points. We will keep track of top picks of the week month and hopefully the year.

The object here is to Pick the top 5 best selling shirts in order of how they sell. Points wil go as follows

6 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #1 pick
5 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #2 pick
4 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #3 pick
3 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #4 pick
2 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #5 pick
1 point if you put something that doesnt make it into the top 5

Also say you pick the best selling shirt as you #2 pick, the most points you can get for that will be 5 since you didnt pick it as the best, you can't get those points

No matter what you pick you will get points. Results will be posted the following Mondays. We are going to tally scores quarterly and the highest over all score and best average will each get to pick a shirt to print!

Check out this weeks tees in the catalog

OH,

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 11:19am

I think I am having issues with the form link. Plz hold

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 11:23am

Ok does copying and pasting that link to the form work?

Maltzmania on Oct 31 '11 at 11:24am

works, joe.

martiandrivein on Oct 31 '11 at 11:24am

oops bet your gonna get a false entry from me, I was navigating with tab and return....hit return one too many times

Morkki on Oct 31 '11 at 11:25am

The link won't work because of the s in https. Copypasting works.

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 12:06pm

I probably should have mentioned that we are going to tally scores quarterly and the highest over all score and best average will each get to pick a shirt to print!

rhythmdev9 on Oct 31 '11 at 12:08pm

Oh man I think I will be better at this than fantasy football.

pilihp on Oct 31 '11 at 1:07pm

neato! i just picked mine!!

queenmob on Oct 31 '11 at 1:12pm

I picked mine too :-D

rhythmdev9 on Oct 31 '11 at 1:22pm

oops i just did this twice cause i had it open in two tabs. Just take my first one :)

parallelish on Oct 31 '11 at 1:32pm

my picks are in 8)

it would also be cool to guess what designs are getting printed the next week, since you can see all the artist in threadless live.
it would probably be too obvious for some artist though.

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 2:21pm

thats not a bad idea para, maybe that can be some kind of tie breaker...

Morkki on Oct 31 '11 at 2:37pm

Made my picks!

jublin on Oct 31 '11 at 2:41pm

this is hard.

rhythmdev9 on Oct 31 '11 at 2:44pm

Thats what he said, Justin.

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 2:47pm

Yeah this is kind of a tough week to start with, but you guys will all be pros after this!

Noh_Body on Oct 31 '11 at 2:57pm

totally siked about this joe!

jublin on Oct 31 '11 at 3:00pm

this is a hard penis.

fuloprichard on Oct 31 '11 at 3:07pm

palitosci on Oct 31 '11 at 3:11pm

Done!

taz-pie on Oct 31 '11 at 3:33pm

Ahahaha jubjubs

EricDiaz on Oct 31 '11 at 3:36pm

ah, sweet...

Adhesive Hippo on Oct 31 '11 at 3:40pm

1 point if you put something that doesnt make it into the top 5
...
No matter what you pick you will get points. Results will be posted the following Mondays.

Do these essentially mean the same thing? As in, does the top statement mean "1 point for not putting the best selling shirt as any of your picks"

Not that it matters. Because I've never been wrong. At anything.

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 3:44pm

Yeah if you pick something that doesnt make it into the top 5 you get one point for it. so the lowest possible score is a 5, the best is a 20

Ian Leino on Oct 31 '11 at 4:05pm

Oh this is a cool idea!

jess4002 on Oct 31 '11 at 5:40pm

super neat, joe! i'm busy at the moment and probably won't be able to do this until wednesday. is/will there be a deadline for each week?

ivejustquitsmoking on Oct 31 '11 at 5:55pm

FlyingMonkeyMan on Oct 31 '11 at 5:58pm

FlyingMonkeyMan on Oct 31 '11 at 5:59pm

fuloprichard on Oct 31 '11 at 6:48pm

d3d on Oct 31 '11 at 6:57pm

i feel like i'd be obliged to bet against me and nathan's shirt, so i'm not going to pick this week.

jeffreyg on Oct 31 '11 at 7:19pm

that's not a retarded reason at all, leon

Morkki on Oct 31 '11 at 8:04pm

Hmm. What does this mean?

...be sure once you submit the form to confirm it on the next page

Because once I submit I just see an option to refill the form

rossmat8 on Oct 31 '11 at 8:15pm

Done

Bio-bot 9000 on Oct 31 '11 at 8:40pm

I got the same result as Morkki, and same question.

speedyjvw on Oct 31 '11 at 10:18pm

Because once I submit I just see an option to refill the form

Weird, well I got both yours Morkki and Bio Sam, so you guys are good!

Really excited for this first week! We have about 33 people signed up so far!

Chengui on Oct 31 '11 at 10:27pm

I'm IN!

Resistance on Nov 01 '11 at 7:57am

done!

Chengui on Nov 01 '11 at 11:59am

Is this like fantasy football - cause it may be the only form I can actually understand.

pyr4lis on Nov 01 '11 at 2:44pm

I tried it. not sure if i did it right though.

so we were guessing which shirts are going to be the top selling of only the NEWEST tees of the week?

I was confused cause some of the drop downs were hoodie designs. Do hoodies count?
