      75% of the week’s fee goes to two week payout, the rest goes to season end. The two payout every week is first place, and a random spot that is announced after all picks are in but before the first game. 75% to the week’s winner & 25% to the random spot.

      Yes! It doubles the number of people who win each week, and keeps people interested through the whole weekend! Plus, as the season progresses, I pick the random spot where there are holes in the standings of no weekly winners. That of course doesn’t guarantee then anything, but hopefully gives them a slightly better chance of hitting the random. By the end of every season, over 50% of the members have at least won something!

      Our pool includes a “Quatro” pool paid out to the two top point leaders over the previous four weeks. It’s paid every week beginning week four (Weeks 1-4, then 2-5, 3-6, etc., to the end of the season). This is in addition to the weekly and season pay-outs.

      Our league has 10 players. You play head to head for 14 weeks,(similar to FF format) Top 6 go to playoffs starting week 15 with top two players getting a bye. $25 payout to the 5 weekly winners during the season. You can switch your picks 5 minutes before each game starts. Sunday night and Monday night switches are common. Double switches too. Champion gets $600, 2nd $300, 3rd $150, 4th $100, 5th $70, 6th $30. This is our 4th year with this format and it makes for some great strategy and second guessing.

      In our pool, we select the team most likely to win and assign them 16 points, all the way down to one point, but the catch is, that if you want to win the 16 points, you have to cover the spread, for example, let’s say Chicago @ Miami -6.5 if you took Miami for 16 points, they would have to win by seven points or more in order for you to get the 16 points.
