Event & Suicide Pool Descriptions

[Rich Davie]

No... the Suicide Pools pay-out in every round, just like we did in the old days.

That way it encourages more members to play.

So if 20 people enter and 15 people pick a winning fighter round 1, you split up 10k between the 15 guys? Then round 2, 10 more advance, you pay 2k each of them. That could equal a bit of work.

Not all players get paid... only the top 3 places.

As long as each player picks less than 2 fights incorrectly, they'll continue in the pool... but they don't get paid unless they have the best record of picking fighters for that round.

If 10 players tie for first, then those 10 players will split the 1st, 2nd & 3rd Place awards but not the players who would then be in 11th place if the 1st Place players got all picks correct and the 11th place players got even just 1 pick incorrect.

The 11th Place players wouldn't collect for that round, but would be able to continue in the Pool in hopes of collecting in the following round, which is the reason for the progressive Prize awards.

I know it might sound confusing when thinking in terms of XML & Spreadsheet data, and in that regard it is but after we play a few rounds it'll become much more clear.

Crap, sorry, it works a little different than the NFL Suicide pools that I'm used to. Those work where you pick 1 team/fighter to win per week/event. Your fighter/team wins, you are still in. It's all good, I will enter whatever you set up.

OK... I got that app installed.

I'll give it a shot in a bit, but I wasn't able to sleep last night and I've been awake now for about 36 hours... I'm kinda burnt-out right about now.

I've got it done and waiting to be posted... I still want to tweak it out a bit before I post it.

It looks kinda bland.
