Fantasy Hockey Contests: Rinkotology!

Somehow the folks from Pensblog still like us.  We are not sure after last year’s mystery Pittsburgh hex but Rinko is back!  Here are the rules everyone first and foremost……

—————————————————————————

MONTHLY GAME

You will pick:
8 forwards
4 defensemen
2 goalies

You will be able to pick numerous players from the same team, and you will also assign a captain whose points will be worth a x2 bonus.

October 1st to November  27th

December 1st to January 29th

Feburary  1st to March 31st

2 goalies

You will be able to pick numerous players from the same team, and you will also assign a captain whose points will be worth a x2 bonus.

RINKO MARATHON

At the end of March, the five users whose rosters have accumulated the most points in both the month games and week games will each receive a $400 cash prize.  Please note that if you have multiple entries in a month or week game, only your best roster’s points will be factored into the total accumulation.

INJURY POLICY

There are no replacements or do-overs. If your player gets hurt during the monthly game, he will not be replaced. So make sure before you finalize your final roster that no roster players are out long-term.

For those who think we forgot a Rinko video, you would be correct in saying there is none.  However, I can tell you that the boys have a lot of fun with this.  It is simple yet complex.  Read the rules many times because when they mean there are no IR spots, there are NO IR SPOTS!  This cannot be emphasized enough.

It costs a mere $10 to have a shot in the monthly contests, really that is what 33 cents a day.  Who knows, you could turn that into some serious coin all by picking the right players or making the right moves.  Coming soon, we will be talking with the men from Rinko and who knows maybe they will give us a few tips on how to either succeed in the game or tell us to bug off.

Either way, it is never a dull game to try so give it a shot today.  Thanks again.
