Football Squares Playing Blog

Ha! Just when we thought we knew every possible way to use FootballPot.com, someone comes up with something new.

It turns out that bowling leagues are using FootballPot.com. They pit one team against another - or even just two individuals who have a particularly heated rivalry.

They even figured out how to run a pot at only 25¢ a square - by setting up the pot at 25 points per square and calling each point a penny. This results in a 2500 point pot, worth $25 - very affordable for a small club of players to run each week and cover some lucky winner(s) beer tab(s).

Lots of folks have used the “No Teams” option, which means that winning numbers apply regardless of team. That way there are two pot winners, even tho’ the only win period for a bowling game is the final score.

Even tho’ we created this free online squares game, it looks like we don’t know everything ~ but at least we’re willing to learn! ; )

Who knows how long this will last?

The race is on at FootballPot.com, which is giving away $25 each to the first 100 people who complete a pot on this new, FREE squares game Web application.

Get going & GOOD LUCK!

If a branch of your family tree is expecting a new sprout soon, take the opportunity now to use FootballPot.com to run a baby pot and put together a nice gift for the family.

Instead of Home and Visitor scores, your numbers should be determined by the first decimal digit in the new baby’s length (in centimeters) and weight (in kilograms).

Using both the metric system and the first digit after the decimal point helps ensure that the winning numbers could be anything between 0 & 9.

You might also use a 50-50 system, which is common when you Host a pot for a charity cause. Basically, the Host’s Share is equal to 50% of the pot, and goes to the family. The other 50% goes to the winner(s) of the pot. So, if the squares are 1 point each, the Host’s Share is 50 and the winner(s) get 50.

You can also spread the love around by choosing the “No teams” rule so that the winning numbers apply both ways (length/weight AND weight/length). This results in two pot winners unless the winning numbers are the same or “tied”.

There may be no end of the ways you can use this free Web gaming application!
