MLB Survivor Contest win $500!!!

[SamsNCharge99]

Has the possibility of multiple players tying at the end of regular season been considered?

Would players be interested in making last 3-4 weeks harder so that fewer people tie the $500?

i believe including this week there's 4 more weeks left of regular season.

Last week say week 5 is only 3 days monday, tuesday, wednesday so I'm not counting that

[leovegas]

33/37 picks in so far

Braves 13
Yankees 4
Philies 3
Houston 3
Texas 2
Nats 2
Reds 2
A's 1
Twins 1
Cubs 1
Red Sox 1

Are the 4 people eliminated then?

I'm ok with tying several others. If the prize is $50 or more it's all good in my mind. But if admin decides to pick two teams a week or make ties lose (not win) I'm ok with that too. Or even continuing to pick into the post season.

I say we roll with the original rules. Down to 33 now, we still got 5 weeks, people will have to pick a lesser team at some point, a stud team could have a rough week. Even if we still have 10 left at the end, that's $50 each. Not bad for a free contest!

agree, we are on week 9 right now and 33 people are spread through 11 teams

me personally went with red sox who have 6 games on the road, so will be tough for sure. As most contests players will drop, just a matter of time

I’d be cool w that, doubt it happen tho. What do you suggest? Picking 2 teams? Stepping up amount of wins needed? I can’t really think of anything else we could do?

[2daBank]

Pretty sure the rules for this one you have to have pick in before 1st game starts for the week so I suppose they would be out.

They still got 5 games vs tor and chisox to get 3 w’s. Doubt they don’t make it thru, they pretty hot right now. Maybe the messed up travel having to play that make up game today slows them down. Still can’t imagine they don’t get a split in Toronto then take 2 of 3 back home vs chisox.

With this format, it's a lot more likely players will just eliminate themselves by posting late on Monday than a team losing 4 out of 6.

Whatever works lol

I believe this should be rewarded. Otherwise you get a 50 way split like with the WNBA contest where one of the two things happens, everybody picks the fav every week or a team like Atlanta Dream just can't get a win.

Washington Nats week 9

[astrodomer]

Grand Prize Winner: the player(s) that survives the greatest number of weeks or those surviving to the end of the regular season. The Grand Prize will be split if there is a tie.

Lol. No doubt. Braves tough travel schedule has them on the ropes (along w the 13 entries who picked them!). They gotta win 3 or of the next 4!! We have had bunch of close calls but most these teams end up pulling it out. Let’s hope jays can complete the 2 game sweep and force them to sweep chisox to keep those 13 entries alive, certainly not rooting against anyone but it would be great for 13 to be eliminated this week!! Lol.

Yanks might have my 3 wins wrapped before they leave Seattle. Which be great since I was hoping I would’nt need them to beat Oakland more than once! Lol

[2daBank]

Sure be interesting if Sunday comes and Braves have to beat Giolito to stay alive!!!

[SamsNCharge99]

down with the braves haha

[leovegas]

down with the braves haha

and Washington!

[2daBank]

and Washington!

Wasn’t considering them but looks like they only have 5 games this week which obviously tougher (I never pick team w 5 games for obvious reason) so losing gm 1 against Baltimore at least makes it interesting! now In same boat as Braves needing 3 of next 4!!

Of course they freaking -400 today, then have a home series w fish so pretty safe bet nats will be ok. If they somehow lose today it gets real interesting!!

Really need Braves to lose this one. Don’t expect chisox to get them twice in atl.

[Art Vandelay]

Bravos stay alive with a big W tonight. Need 2 of 3 over the Chisox this weekend - Not a given...

[maritsa1819]

Good I want to tie even if tie with 25 people

[2daBank]

Shit it a given. I thought they had to lose both in Toronto. Don’t see Sox taking more than 1 once they get a day off and go back home. It be nice but don’t see it. Hell, it be cool if Sox got one of 1st 2 and giolito pitches for chance to knock them out Sunday to at least make them sweat but I doubt it... I remember tribe one week gave Mfers a good scare on Sunday but of course pulled it out vs o’s.. Rockies gave me hell of a scare but they not that good!! Braves gonna win fri and sat, no drama. Lol.

On bright side yanks already got me 3 wins

[2daBank]

Good I want to tie even if tie with 25 people

We should draw straws or something instead of split!

[SamsNCharge99]

So here's where we stand going into weekend

Braves...13 entries........1-2 this week, need to win 2/3 home games against white sox
Yankees....4 entries.....3-0 this week, already advance
Nationals....4 entries.....1-1 this week, need to win 2/3 home to Marlins
Houston.....3 entries......2-1 this week, need to win 1/3 on the road against Blue Jays
Philies....3 entries.....2-1 this week, need to win 1/3 home to the Mets
Reds.....2 entries......3-1 this week, need to win 1/3 on the road against Cardinals
Texas....2 entries.....1-2 this week, need to win 2/3 at home to Mariners
Twins.....1 entry......3-0 this week.....already advance
Cubs......1 entry.......3-0 this week.....already advance
Oakland.....1 entry.......3-1 this week, need to win 1/3 on road against NYYankees
Boston.....1 entry.....2-0 this week, need to win 1/3 on road against Angels

Not looking to good to lose many entries this week. Common Marlins upset against Braves haha
