    You walked into a bit of a quandary here,
    The problem with the board nowadays is that those that post picks and actually do have an edge are reluctant to discuss their picks or methods. Totally understandable off course. Another development over the last couple of years has been that the sharper guys around here have 'educated' (through the many previous discussions) the others to a level where most new bozo's that get on the board nowadays get cut off quickly. New punters either learn and grow from that criticism or they return to the more 'tabloid' like forums like Covers, etc etc.

    Looking forward to some intra-member competitions! :)

    Thanks for the assessment. I appreciate it. I think contests will be a great way to get people engaged. I think we have a lot to work with, and I'm always happy to listen to feedback and suggestions.
