πMaking picks
- Pick the winner of every game each week on the Make Picks page.
- You can change a pick as many times as you like until that game locks.
- For the Monday Night game you also guess the total points scored by both teams. You need to enter that total before you can pick the Monday game.
πWhen picks lock
All times are Mountain Time.
- Thursday, Friday and Saturday games lock at their own kickoff.
- Sunday games that start before 2:00 PM lock at their own kickoff.
- Sunday games at or after 2:00 PM, and the Monday Night game, all lock together when the first of those Sunday afternoon games kicks off.
Everyone's picks for a game become visible on All Picks once that game locks.
πWinning the week
- Only paid players can win the week.
- The paid player with the most correct picks wins.
- Ties are broken by the Monday Night total: whoever's guess is closest to the actual total points wins.
- If the tied players have no Monday total to compare, they share the win.
- A game that ends in a tie counts as a miss for everyone.
- A week is decided once every game, including Monday Night, is final.
π₯βWould have wonβ
If an unpaid player gets strictly more correct picks than the paid winner, they're shown as βwould have wonβ on All Picks and Standings, but the paid player still takes the week.
π΅Payouts
- It's $5 to play each week.
- Winner takes all: the week's pot is $5 Γ the number of paid players. With 11 paid players, the winner gets $55.
- If paid players tie for the win, they split the pot evenly.
- Your running total is on the Standings page.
π₯Pick'em groups
- Start a group to see how just your friends, family or office are picking.
- Group owners can invite players by name. Invites show up on the invited player's Home page.
- You can also join with a group's code. The owner approves your request.
