Quick Answers

What's in it for me?

Bragging rights, plain and simple. Five picks a night, a friendly leaderboard sorting out who reads Maine HS sports best, badges to chase, a streak to keep alive. Always free, no entry fees, no prizes, no catch. The fun IS the prize.

Which sports right now?

Whichever Maine HS team sports are in season. Football, soccer, volleyball, and field hockey in the fall. Basketball and hockey in the winter. Baseball, softball, and lacrosse in the spring. Cross country and track and field are not part of Hot Five.

What if I forget one night?

Nothing happens. You score 0 for that night and your accuracy is unaffected because no picks were graded. Pick the next night and pick up where you left off.

Can I see my picks after the lock?

Yes. Your Pick History shows everything you submitted with the GameIQ % at the time, lock status, and grading result.

Can other people see my picks?

Not your individual picks. Only your public profile name and totals (points, accuracy, locks hit, contrarian wins) appear on the leaderboard.

What if my game gets rained out?

Pick voids. No points either way and no effect on Sweep. If the game gets played later it grades on the actual result.

Can I change my Lock once I set it for the week?

Yes, up until any of the picks involved hits its night's lock time. Once a night with a Lock pick has locked, that Lock is set in stone for the week.

Is it free?

Yes. Always.

Do I need an account?

Yes. A free Analytics207 account so picks and accuracy live in your profile across seasons. Sign up via the site gate.
