JK, if you allowed Cec, out of the 20, who do you think would have objected? I know Brayden wouldn't object. He's one of the most liberal person I've ever met. 18 left.

Don't be shy! Basis for your assumption encouraged.

Thanks for the contest and thanks to Betdsi for the added money.

It's possible no one would have objected, but the advertised overlay of 150% would not have been correct.

You did nothing wrong. I don't mind giving my entry to Cec. I like winner's pools anyway. Cec, let me know. You can PayPal me $100 and my spot is yours.

TYVM Morgan William!!!
It's a Survivor Pool with a twist.

A Winkyduck associate introduced the idea to him and he relayed the idea to EOG.

It was a fun contest last year and it promises to be a fun contest this year.

Picking a LOSER is A LOT harder than picking a WINNER

This season pools where people have to pick a winner will just pick against Miami as much as possible. Here - we can only take Miami ONCE. Eventually people have to pick the better teams to lose and there is where things get interesting. Does anyone take Pittsburgh in Week 1 to LOSE to New England - thereby "saving" a dregs team for later on.

Agree. The strategy is more challenging. Glad we're doing this.

It's important every contestant knows the rules.

I'll send everyone a private message early next week.

Let's start tomorrow morning at 9:00 ET.

We will use this thread to submit Week 1 losers.

All 20 Survivor contestants will receive a private message tonight to remind them of the unique format.

Seventeen more selections still to come.

Let's get everyone started without any issues.

This is a Survivor contest with a twist (Find losers instead of winners).
