because This Contest, along with the CFB one was put together for the Posters of the RX
It's not fair for the RX posters that come here weekly.
10. Tie-breaking rules:
Tie-breaking rules will be applied to determine first place only. Entries tying for second through 10th place, will equally split aggregate prize money from the respective place. If ties exist after the NFL Football regular season for first place, the champion will be determined based on the entry that accumulated the most contest points during the final three weeks of the regular season. If total points accumulated during the final three weeks is equal most points accumulated during the fourth to the final week will determine the winner, and so on weekly (in reverse order), until the tie is broken.
In the unlikely occurrence of a tie after the tie-breakers, co-champions will be declared and the aggregate prize money will be split equally.
* A Google Form will be provided to make your Weekly Picks. They will appear on the accompanying Spreadsheet, released after the 4pm Saturday deadline.
