6th Annual $ 500 Two Strike Survivor

[Willie99]

Run on Yahoo
Pick one outright winner per week
You're eliminated after your second loss
Can't pick the same team twice

Last year we had 16 entries, and we had more competition in the high stakes arena, I expect we reach 20 or more this year

Take a chance at some serious money

Last unbeaten Team Wins $ 1,000
Second Place Wins $ 500
First Place wins the balance, $ 6,500 with 16 participants

One team can win as much as $ 7,500 with 16 participants

Of course, once it gets down to 2 (or a few), remaining participants can split the pot any way they unanimously agree to (one objection from remaining participants, prize distributions will NOT be changed)



If we get to 20 or more participants, the payout will be

First place $ 7,500
Last unbeaten $ 1,000
2nd place $ 1,000 ($500 for < 20 entries)
3rd place $ 500 (no payout for < 20 entries)

If we have > 20 entries, the payouts will be the 20 team payout plus the additional funds allocated as follows

First place 75%
Last unbeaten 10%
2nd place 10%
3rd place 5%

I'm setting up a new group on Yahoo, removing the Year (2018) from the name. yahoo doesn't allow you to change Group Names

the contest is called "Willie's Two Strike Survivor"

It is by invitation only, I'll need to send you an invite and password. You need to accept the invite.

Entries will be accepted until 11:00 AM EST on the opening Sunday of the season (9/8/19)

 

[Willie99]

Send me your e-mail in a private message to me and I'll send you an invitation.

Payments due by Sunday 9/8/19 at 11:00 AM EST, I will delete all entries NOT paid by that time.

If you're a forum member, please use your Rx handle as your name in the contest

The Rx is not involved or associated with this contest in any way shape or form.


This is a private contest being run by me and me alone. If you enter this contest, you're trusting me and me alone with your funds. This is the 6th year for this contest, and the first five years were hassle free and everyone paid in full in a timely manner.

It's a new league this year, so if your signed up for the "2018" contest, last year's contest, you're NOT signed up for this year's contest.

This year the name is simply "Two Strike Survivor" with no reference to the year

no problem, not asking for money now, just want to get everybody registered

how about you buddy, send me e-mails so you can sign up (I may have already sent you an e-mail)

 

[Willie99]

Gentlemen, I've sent out a bunch of invites. If you received one and you plan on participating, please accept the invite because I want to fill the roster as early as possible. I'm not asking for money now, you can pay at your convenience up to two hours before the early games on Sunday of opening weekend. If you're playing the Thursday night game, you have to pay before that game kicks off.

I'm on vacation August 10 - 27, so my time around here will be much more limited and doing stuff through mobile apps is just not as efficient.

If you want to play and don't yet have an invite, PM me your e-mail.

 

[CaptainLee]

Money order sent. Send me an invite.

 

[Willie99]

I thought I did already, but I just sent another one. Let me know if you get it, maybe I'm missing something and that's why so many invites have not been accepted.

Thanks

I'd be shocked if we don't exceed 20

Invites and updates will slow down between 8/10 & 8/28, but they'll still happen

Then I'm going full court press the last 10 days

C'mon men, take a chance at some serious scratch with maybe a 1/20 chance to win
