StormSurge Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 In my quest to have some sort of Atari.IO fantasy football fun, I went with something a little less involved. Behold the Atari.IO Survivor Football pool. For those of you not familiar with how a survivor pool works, all you need to do is pick one team to win each week. If that team wins, you survive and pick again the next week. If they lose, you're down. The catch is that you can only pick each team once. Another twist is that I set it up where you have two strikes, so you won't be eliminated until you choose incorrectly twice. I did that because I'm afraid we won't have that many participants, so this will make the contest last a little longer.

nosweargamer Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I signed up. I decided this year not to do fantasy football for the first time in over ten years. Just been too busy. But picking one team a week shouldn't be too bad.
