Download and Play PickSix For iOS (Please)

Picksix Top

Okay, dear RPadholics. I need you guys and gals to do me a favor. At your earliest convenience, kindly download PickSix for iOS. I don’t ask you for a lot (possibly untrue), but I would love for you to check out this app (certainly true). PickSix is a fun and simple fantasy pick ’em game with all sorts of possibilities. Currently, you can bet on NFL and League of Legends games, but the content opportunities are tremendous. It’s easy to envision PickSix used for the Oscars, the 2016 US presidential election, Premiere League, the MTV VMAs, etc.

In some ways, the extensibility of PickSix reminds me of the versatility of QuizUp. They both use a simple core mechanic to extend the fun of existing events by adding an interactive social layer to the mix. Similarly, both apps can be used for a wide variety of topics. Whether it’s a small group of friends or the millions of people enjoying a particular event, PickSix can make anything more fun through gamification. Of course, I want to hear about the content you’d like to see on PickSix, but before we get to that, I need to share my nerdy idea.

I’d love to see WWE PPVs on PickSix. The cards are usually set the week before the event and it would be fun betting on sports entertainment. I’m going to use the last WWE PPV, “Night of Champions,” as an example of what a WWE PickSix looks like in my (silly) head.

1) Out of the five WWE championships being contested at “Night of Champions,” how many will change hands?

  • 0-1
  • 2-3
  • 4-5

2) Who will win the WWE Divas Championship match?

  • Charlotte
  • Nikki Bella
  • No Contest

3) Seth Rollins is defending two championships. What will his “Night of Champions” record be?

  • 0-2
  • 1-1
  • 2-0

4) How many “Night of Champions” matches will end in a disqualification?

  • 0-2
  • 2-4
  • 5-7

5) How will Ryback vs. Kevin Owens end?

  • Ryback retains Intercontinental Championship
  • Kevin Owens wins Intercontinental Championship
  • Disqualification or schmoz

6) How many tables will be broken during The Dudley Boyz vs. New Day match?

  • 0-2
  • 2-4
  • 5 or more

 

(On a side note, my friend Kate says that I would use my WWE contacts to…influence PPV outcomes. I assure you that I have no such power and if I did, I wouldn’t use it that way.)

Obviously I didn’t give these questions too much thought, but I think you get the idea that PickSix can work for all kinds of things. Now it’s your turn! If you’re an iOS-using RPadholic, please download the game. I fully expect you to challenge me to some betting. Irrespective of your mobile OS, I’d love to hear about the content you’d like to see on PickSix. Please leave a comment below with your excellent ideas.
