Hi, in my pool the rules for goalies is one point for a win, regardless if it was an overtime win or a shoot win you only get point. I thought I had the setup right by placing 1 pt for regular wins,overtime wins and shootout. Everything was working well until Roberto Luongo won in overtime last night against Calgary and has racked up 2 pts?!? He is suppose to only have 1 pts.....am I doing something wrong or is there a mistake somewhere?

You accidentaly gave him an extra point for OT wins. Its an additional point and if you edit your pool details and only give one point for win (nothing else) everything should be fine.

leafsfan_101, are you a developer or admin for the pools stats, or was that just your opinion? If you are a person that determines how the pool works then I don't mind adjusting my pool rules, however if your not it would be nice if a developer/admin could clarify this.
I agree with the majority here (multiple threads have started over this issue), meaning that the points either need to change, or the wording on the site needs to change. If a team wins in OT, they obviosly didn't win in Regulation time, therefore if the site is going to explicitly mention "Regulation Wins", the goalie should only get points for a regulation win OR an OT win, not both. If the points remain the same as they do currently, the word "Regulation" should be taken out and just call it "Wins", then the "Overtime Wins" and "Shoot Out Wins" should display under the "Additional (Bonus) Points" heading, like the shut outs.
Either way, it needs to change. My choice would be to leave the wording as it is now, however only award a goalie for a regulation, overtime, or shoot out win, not multiple types.

leafsfan 101 --you are wrong

I was told by the admin via email that I should set my pool up for all 3 win situations if I want to get credit for a win of any sort

I'm sure its just an oversight and will be solved soon enough

someone keyed in a regulation win AND overtime win for luongo and toskala when they should have entered overtime win only

only the good die young

Hi everyone.

We had a duplicate win entry on the OT games last night. This caused the totals to be out of whack. We have corrected it and are running the system stats batch RIGHT NOW. So the stats should be updated in the pools within the hour. Very sorry for the invonvenience. From time to time we do make a mistake but it is caught within a few hours (like this one)

Also please note that we reconcile our points frequently to maintain accuracy.

Thanks for the posts and the emails gang.

Hi Kline, the batch run is rather server intensive so that is why we tend to do it only once a day. It will refresh tonight at 12:30am PST
