Pittsburgh Survival Football Contest Rules & Regulations
THE CONTEST
Pittsburgh Survival Football is a contest of skill that
requires each contestant to select one football team to win in each week of the
National Football League regular season. No team can be selected more than once
during the season. If the team selected on any week wins, the contestant will
remain in the contest. If the team selected loses or ties, the contestant is
eliminated from the contest. If no players pick a winner in a given week, all
will move on to the next week. The winner will be the last contestant remaining
in the contest. If multiple players survive to the end of the contest all will be declared co-winners and share the title.
ENTERING
The contest is hosted online at officefootballpool.com. If you are not already registered at the site, you need
to go to the website at
http://www.officefootballpool.com
and register with a Screen Name and Password of your choice.
You then can join by email invitation or directly at the web site by entering
the Pool Id number and Pool Password for the current year provided
by your pool contact person – the Pool ID and Pool Password are separate from your personal
Screen Name
and Password -
Once logged in fill out all required information. Multiple entries are allowed.
ENTERING PICKS
Each person will be responsible for entering their picks on the website. To
enter picks, you need to sign into the website with your screen name and
password then click on "Picks" for the picksheet. If
you are eligible for more than one pick, click the link: "Click here to add
entries" and on the drop down list select the number of entries you are eligible
for. Players without
internet access can make arrangements to have their picks entered for them.
PICK DEADLINE
The pick deadline is Sunday 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time each
week with the exception of week 1. In the first week the deadline will be
extended to Monday night at 9:00 pm to maximize participation. Once a
game starts, picks for that game are locked and can't be changed or entered. You
can only enter or change picks for games that haven't started. For more
information about how the website handles deadlines, check the FAQ page at the
contest website.
AUTOPICKS
If you forget to enter your pick, the website will assign
you the biggest favorite of the week, of games that have not started and a team
not previously picked, with the exception of week 1. The first week of
the contest everyone must enter a pick manually. The point spreads will be provided by OfficeFootballPool.com. The autopicker will only assign you a pick for games
being played after the deadline. If two teams are tied for the biggest favorite,
the website will assign one randomly.
CONFIRMING PICKS
It is the sole responsibility of all players to
confirm that their picks are accepted by the website. There are many ways to do
this. One, is to get a pick confirmation email. When entering picks, check the
box to receive a pick confirmation and the website will send it to your
registered email address. Two, return to the picksheet, not by using your
browser's back button, but by clicking on a link, such as PICKS>My Picks. If
your pick was accepted it will be prefilled on the picksheet. A third way to
confirm your pick is to check the standings page. If your pick is in, it will
show up on the standings or poolwide picks page.
DISPUTES
It is the sole responsibility of every player to ensure
that their picks were entered correctly. If there is ever a discrepancy between
what the website shows and what the player thinks they entered, the website will
be considered correct, except in the very rare instance where the website
manager confirms that a website error caused the discrepancy.
By participating in Pittsburgh Survival Football you agree to all the rules
and regulations set forth and accept all decisions made by Pittsburgh Survival
Football and OfficeFootballPool.com on all matters of fact or interpretation of
the rules. All decisions are final.
