📋 How to Pick
For each game, choose ONE of four options: Favorite (to cover the spread), Underdog (to cover), Over (total points over the line), or Under (total points under the line). All picks lock when the first game tips off. 1 point per correct pick, 0 for a push.
🔥 Lock of the Day (REQUIRED): You MUST pick your most confident game for Thursday and one for Friday. Correct Lock = +1 bonus pt (2 total). Wrong Lock = -1 pt. You must have a pick on the game first, then click the 🔥 button to lock it.
❄️ Ice (optional — sabotage): After picks lock, you get 1 Ice for the tournament. Pick an opponent who is ahead of or tied with you in the standings, then choose one of their games that hasn't tipped. If they're wrong, they get -1 extra. If they're right, you lose -1. First-come, first-served — once a game is Iced, nobody else can Ice it. Use it wisely.

Ice Rules
Each player gets 1 Ice for the tournament. You can only Ice someone who is currently ahead of or tied with you on the leaderboard — Ice is a comeback tool, not a weapon for the leader.
How it works: Pick an opponent ahead of or tied with you, then choose one of their games that hasn't tipped yet. Once a game is Iced, no one else can Ice that same person's same game (first-come, first-served).
If they got their pick wrong: They get -1 penalty. You are unaffected.
If they got their pick right: You get -1 penalty. They are unaffected.
Push: Nothing happens. Ice is wasted.
Icing a Lock game: High stakes. If they got their Lock wrong, they get -2 total (-1 from the Lock + -1 from your Ice). If they got their Lock right, they get +2 as usual and you get -1.
