I recommended an NFL survivor pool a while back. Those are usually fun...

How should we run it. Keep track of active streaks with prizes for each milestone Number hit?
Grand Prize for the longest streak during the season?

Are you referring to a streak contest or a Survivor pool?

Maybe a NFL or a NCAAF streak contest.
Maybe combined.

NFL survivor is where you pick 1 team to win each week (not cover ATS). You can only pick a team once throughout the entire season. Check out ESPN or Yahoo for the rules on NFL Survivor contests

Survivor pools are great. Bill if you are thinking more streak that's all good, but I think a Survivor pool would get some good participation.

i'm guessing a streak contest would have people picking games like mad to string together a streak while a survivor (while more fun) might not sustain the traffic/activity once you are out so the sbr powers that be like the streak contest better
any contest is a good contest

I guess people call em different things. They both sound good but I like the idea of everyone picking daily through the season putting together a winning run. When you lose you have that score until you beat it.
Bread,
Also a good one if there is time. You kind of need to run those from the start right?

I'd be down for either Bill. And yes, a Survivor pool would have to start from week one. It's picking a straight winner, no spread, moneyline, just pick a winning team. Can't pick same team twice all year.
Sounds simple enough, but these things usually end before Week 10. lol.

One bet a day is too often to build a streak. It doesn't leave enough room for strategy. You should be able to bet daily, but the window for a bet should be longer, maybe a week.
The longer the streak, the bigger the prize. The bigger the prize, the greater the publicity. Wagerline has one for 100K, so SBR could aim in that same area.
