Thread: Last Man Standing Football Pool 2013

    Exclamation Last Man Standing Football Pool 2013

    Hi all -

    It's time for another "Last Man Standing" NFL pool (the software I am using actually calls it a Survivor pool - same thing) for the 2013 - 2014 season.

    It's very easy - Here's how it works

    You pick one team to win each week (no point spreads). If they lose, you are eliminated. A win or tie and you move on. The only catch is, you can't use the same team more than once during the year.

    You must get your pick in by the weekly deadline - before the first game each Sunday. Early games must be picked before they start. All picks will be hidden until the game has begun (for early games) or until the first game on Sunday.

    If you fail to make a pick, you get the team that is the largest favorite for the week (that you have not used already).

    Good luck to everyone. If you have any questions, please contact me via Private Message (PM) or contact us via email () or use the "contact us" link in the menu on the left on www.tsptalk.com.

    Thanks for the e-mail reminder; otherwise I may have missed it.

    I noticed it allows us to do multiple entries per account name. I'm guessing we're only supposed to do 1 entry, right?

    Yes, one. Not sure why they'd allow more. I better check the settings.

    Thanks for playing!

    Nothing - but the prizes are commensurate with the fee. Not much.

    No, no entry fee.

    FYI, although the deadline is on Sunday morning, there is a game Thursday night that can be used if you make a pick before game time.

    There's still about 20 minutes to make a pick for this year's contest. See the 1st post in this thread for the "how to".

    I had the deadline at 10 AM ET and that was wrong. Had my time zones confused. The deadline is 1 PM ET.

    the only comforting thing about my steelers pick so far today is at least somebody already lost on thursday with the ravens.
