Hello AO Football Fans!

Welcome to Yahoo! Sports Survival Football!

I have created the Private Group called Automags Online.

To join this group:

Group ID# = 14954
Password = ao


Remember, it is the Group ID#, not the group name, that other people must use to join your group.

You are now ready to participate in Survival Football!


The object of the Survival Football game is to pick the winner of one game each week of the 2003
football season.

No point spread and you can't pick the same team twice.

For example, if you take Green Bay to beat Atlanta in the first week, you can not take Green Bay again for the remainder of the season.

If Green Bay wins the game you survive.

If they lose or tie you are out.

There are between 14-16 games each week of the season.

All you have to do is pick the winner of ONE of those games to survive.

Pick a winner, and you keep picking the next week. Pick a loser and you're eliminated!

Thanks for joining. Good luck.

[Jack & Coke]

I'm wondering... have you guys read the "survival football" rules?




The object of Yahoo! Sports Survival Football is to be the last Active member of your individual group.

In order to accomplish this goal, a user must correctly pick the winner of one professional football game each week.

But, to make this somewhat simple task more difficult, each user can only pick each professional football team once during the season (this does not carry across multiple groups).

If a correct selection is made, the user will remain Active for the following week. If an incorrect selection is made, that user will be Eliminated.

For all Public and Private Groups, the deadline to submit your final pick for the week is 11:59 p.m. PT on the day before the first game of that week.

For almost all weeks, this deadline will be 11:59 p.m. PT on Saturday, but it will change when there are Thursday or Saturday games.

The Active/Eliminated status within an individual group will be updated after each night of games is completed.
The Overall Results and Pick Distribution percentages will be updated after the final game of each week (typically Monday).

[Warewolf50]

[MayAMonkeyBeYourPinata]

Then we all tie.

I reset the pool (me commissioner:)) and we go at it again in Week 4.

[Koosh]

On the other hand, what happens if we all win? We all tie again? But how would you reset the league?

[Jack & Coke]

Yea that way we can see who is still in and what not

[dre1919]

I thought this would be a good, safe weekend to go ahead and get rid of my Cleveland pick since I don't trust them to beat anybody but Cincinnati.

The lesson, as always, is never bet on Cleveland.

:)

"All the chicks with the crimson lips go CLEVLAND SUCKS! CLEVELAND SUCKS! CLEVE-LAND SUUUCKS! OHIO!"
