    Wait, I'm eliminated? ...I thought I could buy back in up to week 4? To clarify, I have bought back in once so far.

    I know in past years people bought back in twice before week 4 (and the way I read this, I sounds like Maynard and FME have bought back in once already too, so in the same spot as me). Why does it say I'm eliminated, but that Maynard and FME have a last chance to buy in?

    Thanks in advance for consideration and review. 
    This was my first loss....an awesome pick of MN!  Woo-hoo.

    If the site lets people buy back 2x after 3 weeks I am certainly OK with that if everyone else is.

    BTW, I put Krakow but meant Werchter.  Lose track.  Either way I will look at what is remaining from the 2018 posters and pick one from there, one that is not up in the shop still.

    My guess is after tonight’s game, the site will say that I’ve been eliminated with 2 losses

    Yesterday was actually my first loss (had Baltimore in week 1 and New Orleans last week)......pretty sure OfficePoolJunkie runs off a double elimination process for the majority of their suicide pools (2 "x" and you are out).....don't recall us allowing for a 3rd time buy in option but do recall some people using different handles so they had more entries in to try and increase their odds (if that makes any sense)......could be wrong tho but most suicide pools I play in its a max 2 "x" and done but don't matter to me....if we are allowing for a 3rd time entry before week 4, there should be something in place in the event of a tie at the end of the season based on the winner's entry # (eg. player with fewest entries entered wins outright or gets bigger size share of the posters, like 2 to 1:  24 posters, 2 people tie, one with fewest "x"'s gets 16 and the other 8)....just throwing it out there, should it come down to that

    I think the league is set for no buy backs after week 3

    but looking back, I should have set it for after week 4 just to get more posters in the pot

    maybe do that next sesson

    and I like Gerry’s idea for tiebreaker next year too

    Ok thanks for clarifying. I'll make sure to go through my posters and find two in the next week. Glad they are going to a good place! 

    On a side note, this has been such a bizarre start to the year! Two years ago I finished second in this pool, think I made it to like week 10 without a loss. Going 1/3 is embarrassing/humbling, but who would have seen some of these longshots?!

    Vikings fan + 2 survivor losses in 3 weeks = I hate football

    Good luck to whoever's left. At this rate taking the Dolphins over the Pats might be your best week 4 pick.

    Switched my pick to Bears last minute with Tannehill out...and, of course the Bears are doing everything they can tell give the game away.  Penalty and Fumble key first half sucks.
    C'mon!  :)

    Hahaha.  I now will root against Chicago for the rest of the season.  2 fumbles, 1 int, a missed FG in OT and several horrid defensive plays to make Brock Osweiller look competent.

    What are the payouts this year? I think 8th or 9th received 1 poster last year and it worked up from there.

    Good luck to those in play tonight and everyone else who won this week's picks (meaning, everyone but my pick on the Bears! lol)
