Need your creative advice here...
I need to create some kind of "game" for my team to play in regards to "Hawks vs Bucks" series.
Boss wants some kind of "guess the score/series" thing, but as a degenerate gambler, i cant think of any "simple" ideas for this.
*bonus points if you can figure out how to make it easy for India folks to understand/play

Can you do a squares type of deal
I know that's more of a football type game but could be fun with a 7-game basketball series

Maybe set it up where a hit on the squares is worth a certain amount of points Like if it's the first win in the series for a team and you have the right combo, 1 point If it's the second win in the series for a team and you have the right combo, 2 points etc With enough participants you should be able to fill out the squares and with the points system be able to separate so you don't end up with a bunch of ties |

just have them predict the outcome of all 7 games
i.e.
1. Hawks
2. Bucks
3. Bucks
4. Hawks
5. Bucks
6. Bucks
7. No Game
its lame but simple for office type shit

the real all star game puts stakes on winning each quarter, it's simple to see and understand so you could use that to fill it out some, plus incentivize people watching it as it happens rather than just checking scores the next day, more of a team ambience

Pick a team and a quarter for each game. The person who wins by the most wins the game. For example: Game 1 - Hawks, third quarter Game 2 - Bucks, first quarter Game 3 - Bucks, second quarter Game 4 - Bucks, first quarter Game 5 (if necessary) - Hawks, third quarter Game 6 (if necessary) - Hawks, fourth quarter Game 7 (if necessary) - Bucks, second quarter Also, b. A. (good 2023), is your boss doing anything for the India v. New Zealand test match? Maybe he should do something the folks in India care about. |

Love this, Eric & Herb. Thanks!
He did not. Which is a shame. I will now that I know it's going on.
When England vs India was happening, that was a big week for our team. We have a few in both.
