I respect the deadline and do not allow any late picks, I have made that clear and not a single person in my pools has had any objections. The other 6 that I am in has the same rule. You miss the Thursday game, you miss the week.


The late picks usually don't effect me in any way, because I always suck
I've put it to a poll for everyone in the pool to weigh in on. There should be enough votes in about a week's time to know how most people feel about it. You've been in 6 other polls that do it differently, I've been in 3 or 4 that do it differently. As long as all the picks made are entered before the games actually start and those games missed are forfeit no one should have a problem.

But this isn't an issue worth anyone quitting the pool over. If there was some kind of blatant pick-changing going on after the fact I'd say it would be worth it, definitely, but that's not the case here. As I said I was hoping we could open this up for discussion and talking about it without anyone getting bent out of shape and walking away. I'm disappointed to see that that has happened.
