2019 NFL Survivor Pool - Rules
WHAT TO DO:
There are 17 weeks in the NFL regular season
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 season.)
Your team must win the game, ties are considered a loss.
This league is double elimination. Here is how it works:
-- If your team wins, you survive to next week
-- If your team loses once, your entry is allowed one incorrect pick and survive to next week
-- If your team loses twice, your entry is eliminated.
(Exception: If you are still in contention for a payout, you continue playing until you no longer are)
-- Last Survivors win
(Exception: If you are still in contention for a payout, you continue playing until you no longer are)
-- Last Survivors win
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. 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.
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 are still alive to 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 NFL Survivor Pool champion.
If there is more than one person remaining after the final week of the season, ties will be broken using the following tiebreaker:
1.) Entries with no losses
2.) Entries with one loss
3.) Strength of Victory (SOV): Add (or subtract) the scoring differential for each game. Incorrect picks subtract from this total. Correct picks add to this total.
4.) If there is still a tie, all tied entries will split the respective payout
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.

PICKS POSTED BY COMMISH: If you need help making your selections or are having computer problems, 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.
It is the responsibility of owners to ensure that picks are made and are entered before the picks deadline each week. Please be proactive with your picks each week and it is recommended that you make an initial pick early. You can always go back in and change it if you wish later.
DUPLICATE SELECTIONS:
It is the responsibility of team owners to ensure that no duplicate picks are made each week. If a duplicate pick is made, it will result in a strike for that entry.
NOTE: The software should not allow duplicate picks, however this rule is put in place as a safeguard should it happen, so please double check your pick each week to ensure it is not a duplicate. Especially later in the season when team choices become more difficult.
POSTING SELECTIONS/RESULTS:
