Shouldn't these picks still be private? If I post my choices, everyone above me in the standings just has to match mine to stay ahead. I think we should PM the picks to you and you can post them once the games get underway.

There's nothing in the rules saying you can't PM me the picks. This must still be done prior to me locking picks and when picks are locked, they are locked. And you must pick winners (you can't simply say "I'll go opposite of Needfulkings").
