2013 Fantasy Football Playoff Pool  “Multiplier”

 

This pool is similar to the Hold em pool both in the starting lineup and the scoring format  However after the first week, you can change your lineup to pickup players that are still alive with a multiplier applied to every player that stays in your lineup for more than one week.

 

Website

This year, I will again be using this websitee: http://PlayoffFFPool.Tripod.com  Let me know if you have any suggestions for improvements.  With my limited web building skills, I will try to accommodate.  I will use this site for lineup entry, scoring updates, and all other communications.

 

Starting Roster

To play, simply submit a lineup before the playoffs begin.  The lineup must consist of 12 players (2 QB, 3 RB, 4 WR, 1 K, and 2 DEF).  The catch is that each starting lineup must have one and only one player from each of the 12 playoff teams.

 

In addition to the original lineup, three extra players from any team will be used for tiebreakers.  The three players can play ANY position and can be from the same team.  However, the tiebreaker players CANNOT be part of your original starting twelve.  The tiebreaker players will get the multiplier, but we will not change these players after the first week.

 

All starting lineups must be submitted to the Commissioner before the first playoff game starts (3:30 PM CST Saturday). 

 

Multiplier Rules

Beginning with the second playoff week you are allowed to change your lineup.  After the wild card round (the first week), you are allowed to have more than one player from a team in your starting lineup. You may change as many players as you like.

 

The multiplier is the number of weeks the player has been in your lineup times the number of fantasy points scored that week.  For example, if you start Christian Ponder in week 1 and leave him in your lineup throughout the playoffs, you will get double points in week two, triple points in week three and quadruple points when Ponder leads the Vikings to the Superbowl title.

 

Fees and Prize Money

Each team will pay an entry fee of $10.

 

Prize money will be distributed based on the number of entrants.  Last year, based on 45 entries, we paid the top five places:

                                      1st Place                       $175

                                      2nd                                 $115

                                      3rd                                 $75

                                      4th                                  $50

                                      5th                                  $25

 

In order to cover postage and other minor costs, I will take one free entry.

 

If there is a tie for one of the prizes, the cumulative score of the three tiebreaker players will be used to decide a winner.  If it is still tied after the extra players,  the prize will be divided equally among those teams.
