Pool Rules
Each week constitutes a new pool.
To enter, fill in the entry form by selecting the outcome of each game. You
will also be asked to guess the total points scored in the Monday Night
Football game* which is used as a tie breaker. Each week costs
$3.33 which goes into the pot paid to that week's
winner(s). Fees for each participant for the season total $115.00.
(18 weeks totaling $60.00 and $40.00 for the Best Record winners, $15.00 for party supplies).
The participants with the best and second best overall records will receive ($450.00) 75.00%
and ($150.00) 25.00% respectively of the Best Record fees. All fees and winnings will
be settled during the Super Bowl party by the treasure.
*Should you miss a week you will receive the same
win/loss as the worst participant that did submit picks.
*Should the Monday Night Football game be scheduled for
a different night, the last game sch60.00ppppp6werteduled for that week will be used as the
tie breaker instead.
The winner for each week will be the player with the most correct picks. In
the event of a tie, the player who guessed closest to the actual point total
of the tie breaker game will win. Should two or more players still be tied, the
pot will be divided equally among them.
Note: for the tie breaker, it does not matter if your point total is
over or under the actual game total. It is the difference between the two
numbers that counts.
THE PLAYOFFS PARTY RULE!!
PART 1 - The participant(s) with the WORST overall record for the year will
host this years PLAYOFF party!
PART 2 - The participant(s) with the best overall record must supply the PLAYOFF party beer!
Year End Ties

3rd tie breaker -- Least MNF (lastgame) pts differential.
Last Place

Making and Changing Entries
When filling in an entry form, you do not have to make a pick for each game.
All that is required is that you enter a point total for the tie breaker. This
is helpful if there are early games scheduled for a given week (games played on
a Thursday, Friday or Saturday). You may make your picks for these games
beforehand and complete the rest later.
Games are automatically locked out on the entry form according to their
scheduled date and time. Early games are locked at the start of the individual
game. All remaining games (including the Monday Night Football game) are locked
at the scheduled start time of the first 1pm Sunday game.
Note: times displayed on the schedule are Eastern.
You may change your pick for any game up until the time that game is locked.
You may also change your tie breaker point total up until the time all entries
are locked on Sunday.
Entries must be completed on time. Once a game is locked, you may not change
your pick for it. If you did not make a pick for a particular game, it is
counted as a loss. If you submit a partial entry and either forget or are
unable to complete it, you are still responsible for the entry fee.
