    Damn, I should've saved DEN for next week. They play the Jets.

    Next week looks TOUGH.

    There's a +/- stat and I'm a +6. What does that mean?

    That's in the degenerate league. It's how many places you've moved up or down in the standings for the week.

    Yeah but this year no one is left - you both picked the Cowboys and the Cowboys lost. No one won the pool then, right? You guys may have lasted longer, that's all.

    I don't know. If it did, it shouldn't have, in my opinion. What are the rules? The way I see it, no one won. Everyone was eliminated.

    Even if you two guys lasted until week 17 and picked the Cowboys to beat the Redskins and the Cowboys lost- that still means everyone was eliminated and no one won the pot, in which case everyone should get their money back.

    I guess we'll have to ask Horos or Speedy what the rule is. Lasting longer than the others should count for something I think. I still say split the pot between joe and myself, but that's my opinion ;)

    Well according to the website you both on and split the pot with $70 each.

    I thought the idea was to make it through the entire season with ought being eliminated- or be the last man standing. I wonder if this is how other Survivor pools work, too? Seems strange to me.

    They split the pot in half.

    Can we start another pool for the remaining 8 weeks?
    Start from scratch?
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    $70? Did we have 14 people join? I thought we had about 10 people. i'll take it :))

    Most pools do it this way (least the ones i've been in) whoever lasts the longest wins. Getting through the entire season without losing would be kinda hard to do. Although in one pool i'm few people did it a couple years ago. Still pretty difficult.

    Yeah we must have started with 14. I think 4 people(including Speedy) were eliminated in week 1 because they all took the Bears, lol. So then it was down to 10.

    Now had you taken the Redskins and been last man standing, then obviously you would win. That is a clear victory. I just don't agree with the two of you sharing the pot after both being eliminated in the same night. But that's just my opinion and I guess the rules say otherwise.

    I know last year me and 2 other guys split the pot because we were the last 3 left and we all lost on the same week. It seems like a fair way to do it since they lasted the longest and tied. If we can start another pool, count me in!

    Horos - are you banker? If so, can you put $10 in for me. Then I'll still have a $5 credit, which I will add to for the playoff pool - if we're doing one/if you're banker. Thnx

    This might be good time to try a redemption Island-type Survivor pool - if you get knocked out, you get a chance to get back in. Just suggesting it - I know no one is going to go for it!

    $10 to get in, $25 to get back in if you get knocked out? Something like that?
