2022 NFL Survivor Pool - Rules
POOL SETUP:
There are 18 weeks in the NFL regular season
Choose one team every week who you think will win their game straight up (No point spreads)
(Exception: If you are still in contention for a payout, you continue playing until you no longer are)
-- Last Survivors win
NOTE: Payouts are typically for the Top 10, so this pool is run a bit differently than the common Survivor Pool. Read further for a breakdown on how payouts for 2nd-10th work.
WINNERS/TIEBREAKERS:
The last entry remaining will be declared the NFL Survivor Pool champion.
REMAINING ENTRIES ELIMINATED IN THE SAME WEEK:
There may be a situation where all remaining entries still alive in the pool get eliminated in the same week. If this situation were to occur, consider this an additional chance for all remaining entries. (i.e. If your team loses and all other entries lose too, all teams advance to next week). However, the teams chosen by each entry will be counted and may not be used again.
THE POOL CHAMPION HAS BEEN DETERMINED, BUT OTHER WINNERS HAVE NOT:
There may be a situation where the pool champion has been determined, but the remaining winners have not. If a champion is determined but 2nd, 3rd etc place 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 or winners have been determined
-If the NFL season is over and there is/are no clear cut winner(s) for the remaining payouts, tiebreakers in the winners/tiebreakers section above will be used. If there is still a tie, winnings will be split from those eligible.
MULTIPLE ENTRIES:
To increase your chances of winnings, you may play as many times as you wish. Each entry will be scored separately.
If you would like to play a 2nd or 3rd entry, you may choose them at signup. However, if you have already signed up and wish to add additional entries, please contact the league commish at info@primefantasysports.com and he will add them for you.SIGNUP:

SUBMISSION DEADLINES:
Selections for each week are due prior to the kickoff of each game.
PICKS POSTED BY COMMISH: If you need help making your selections or are having access issues, please contact the commish with your selection before the deadline and he will make it for you.
NO SELECTIONS:
No Pick: If your pick for a particular week is not submitted at all, you will receive an incorrect pick for that week and it will be treated as if you got your selection wrong.
SOV Adjustment: Since Strength of Victory (SOV) is used as a tiebreaker in this pool, if you do not make a pick during a particular week, the SOV assigned for your entry that week will be -20 points.
If you need help making your selections or are having issues logging on, please contact the commish with your selection before the deadline and he will make it for you. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the pool participants to ensure that your picks are made and are entered before the pick(s) deadline each week.
POSTING SELECTIONS/RESULTS:
WHEN ARE SELECTIONS POSTED: Selections are posted immediately after the deadline passes for each game.
WHEN ARE RESULTS POSTED: Results are posted shortly after the conclusion of each game.
