I want to try a new contest next year that to my knowledge has never been done.

It may take 2 or 3 years to crown a winner.


How about a college football 1 strike survivor contest?
With all the mismatches and choices it would probably have to rollover to multiple seasons.

Once you use a team you can't use them ever again even if it rolls over till the next season.

So if you take FSU in week 1 of 2016 you can't ever take them again even in 2017 .

Chop a way to propose that type of college football survivor pool is with 5 games per week and no repeats after week 5.

I'll vote B

I thought top heavy would be better but I figured you were paying out a little flatter because with the $500 entry fee you figured more people would join if they had more ways to be in the money. Which made sense to me.

I'll vote B


I don't remember last unbeaten getting 1000 I thought it was 500.

But I'll go b


I vote B and would like to see it confirmed before the games kickoff Sunday.

I'll go B as well

7-0 for B, it's already a majority, B wins

$ 5,000 1st place
$ 1,000 last unbeaten
$ 500 2nd place


with one qualification. If one of the other 6 participants comes in here before 1:00 EST on Sunday and says they would not have participated if they knew this was going to become more top heavy, we either retain the 60/20/20 payout or we refund their money

just so we know for certain, it would be nice for the remaining six to check in

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I want to be as open and fair as possible, I don't want anyone to be able to say we changed the rules on them and damage our credibility for next year and beyond

I think B is the perfect balance to satisfy both the winner take all and the everyone gets a little crowd.

Great setup.

5k or more for first with the possibility of 3 people getting paid.

Perfect structure

The changing of the rules was paying 2nd place money. Did not do that last season

but throughout this thread I was saying something like 60/20/20, so someone may have signed up thinking that was the structure

Hope I did my pick right. No confirmation .. but see it highlighted ...

if you look under either "overview" or "my picks" you should see your selection
