    Question involving survivor leagues and the SF tie?

    I remember the tie back in 2008, and I know htat most survivor leagues called it a win both ways.


    I mean you are trying NOT TO LOSE, thus a tie is also a win. Ok, that is how I see it and I didnt even take SF this week. I am saving SF for week 14. But I noticed that my online hosting site called it a loss?



    How is it graded in your league? 25% of the league took SF of the 66 people left

    OK damnit! I wanted those guys to lose! I am sure that the site will fix that issue tomorrow. I sure hope that San Fran kills Miami in week 14

    by definition surviving means not losing kinda surprising so many are saying its a loss.

    It depends on the league if you ask me. I would read the fine print on those online.

    My league has it as a loss. You have to pick a "winner" clearly in the rules

    I hope that it is a loss. But a few years ago I can remember that virtually all leagues counted the tie as a win

    I found the rules on OFFICEFOOTBALLPOOL.com. This is where my pools are


    TIE GAMES
    If a football game ends in a tie any picks on that game will be treated as a loss. [Managers - the website treats ties as losses. If you want to treat ties as a win, you will need to manually over-ride the website scoring.]
