For Owners > Survivor Pool |
This screen offers owners another non-fantasy gaming option for the league. In a survivor pool, each owner picks the winner of a single NFL matchup for the upcoming week of the season. Owners that choose correctly are allowed to predict the winner of the following week, while owners that make an incorrect pick are eliminated from this contest for future weeks. The catch is that each owner may only pick each NFL team once over the course of the entire season. For example, if an owner chooses the New England Patriots in week 1, he/she cannot select them again. In order to view the results, the commissioner must first add the "NFL Survivor Pool" home page module via the For Commissioners > Setup > Appearance Setup > Home Page Setup screen.
NOTE: The owner must pick the WINNER of an NFL game. In the case of an NFL tie, neither team wins, so the owner is out of the survivor contest.
Survivor picks will be revealed at the kickoff of the game for each corresponding pick.
NOTE: This option can be disabled by the commissioner in the For Commissioners > Setup > Pool Setup screen.
NOTE: The commissioner (assuming the commissioner lockout feature is disabled) can use this screen to define/edit survivor picks for any franchise for any week of the season.
