Tiebreakers

Weekly

In the event of a points tie after a week's picks (and each round of the playoffs) we will use the following steps to break the tie:

  1. The player with the most correctly guessed picks will be the winner.
  2. If there is still a tie, the player with the highest confidence correct pick will be the winner.
  3. If two or more players are still tied, the player with the second highest confidence correct wins
  4. Continue in this fashion until the tie is broken. If a tie is not broken, the pot will be split.
Final Standings

The first tiebreaker for final standings rankings is total points for the season. In the event of a tie, the player with the most correct picks for the season will be the winner. If two or more players are still tied, the player with the most correct 10pt picks will be the winner. If still tied, the player with the most correct 9pt picks, then 8pt picks, etc. will be determined as the winner.
