HOW IT'S PLAYED |
|
| What You Do: | Choose one team every week who you think will win their game straight up (No point spreads) You must choose a different team each week. (EX: If you choose Dallas in Week 1, you cannot use Dallas again the rest of the pool.) Your team must win the game, ties are considered a loss. This pool is double elimination. Here is how it works: -- If your team wins, you advance to next week -- If your team loses once, your entry is allowed one incorrect pick and advance to next week -- If your team loses twice, your entry is eliminated. If a particular pool ends early in the NFL season, we will start a new one, giving adequate time for signups and enough weeks to be able to determine a winner. The league commissioner will let everyone know ahead of time if there will be another pool run in the same NFL season |
| What If A Group of Players Are Eliminated In The Same Week Leaving Nobody Left?: | Consider this an additional chance for all entries without any penalties. If your team loses and all other entries lose too, you are still alive. However, the teams chosen by each entry will be counted and may not be used again. EXAMPLE: Entry 1 chooses Arizona Entry 2 chooses Buffalo Entry 3 chooses Detroit Entry 4 chooses Oakland If Arizona, Buffalo, Detroit and Oakland all lose, all 4 entries remain in the pool and try again next week. Entry 1 may not use Arizona again, Entry 2 may not use Buffalo again, etc etc. |
| Winners/Tiebreakers: | The last entry remaining will be declared the winner. If there is more than one person remaining after the final week of the season, ties will be broken using the following tiebreaker: 1.) Teams with no losses 2.) Teams with one loss 3.) Total points scored by each entries correct picks. The entry whose correct picks scored the most points the weeks those picks were chosen will break the tie. 4.) The tied entries split the pool winnings The goal for these tiebreakers is to reward the entries that have the most success from the beginning. An entry that has no losses should win the tiebreaker if they are going head to head with an entry that has one incorrect pick. |
| What happens if the champ is determined but other payouts have not yet been determined? | If a champion is determined but 2nd and/or 3rd place (or whatever payouts are applicable to your pool) have not been determined, here is the procedure to follow: -If there are still weeks left in the NFL season, the remaining eligible entries will continue to make picks each week until a winner(s) have been determined or -If the NFL season is over and there is/are no no clear cut winner(s) for the remaining payouts, tiebreaker #3 in the winners/tiebreakers section above will be used (Total points scored by each entries correct picks) If there is still a tie, winnings will be split from those eligible. |
