2015 SURVIVOR GAME THREAD

[Doc]

Elimination (or Survival) game: This is a new one so pay attention here. Each week you pick ONE SEC team to win. Its that simple. There are no points, no spreads. Just pick the winner. HOWEVER in the following weeks you can not re-use a team. So if you pick FL to win in week 1 then you can not use FL in week 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 etc. If you pick Alabama in week 2 you can not use FL or Bama in weeks 3 or 4 or 5 or 6. Note that you are not required to pick intraconference games so you can pick UK to beat LA-Laf but you can't pick LA-Laf to beat UK as your pick must be an SEC school. If the team you pick loses then you get a strike. Two strikes and you are out of the game. This game requires you to play from week one (and if you miss a week you get an automatic strike) or take a strike. The last person standing wins. As we get later in the year I might modify the game a bit to get to a single overall winner but fear not, after about 5 weeks it gets hard and by week 10 I don't expect too many to be surviving. We may do a redux midway thru the year if we get lots of folks flunking out early.


Edit: addendum-midway thru we will have a double play week where you will pick TWO teams for that week. However one of those two teams will be able to be reused later so if you plan your entire year out it won't mess you up. In that week you will pick 2 of your remaining teams, your main pick plus one extra pick. One of those teams will be eligible to be recycled and picked again in a future week. You don't need to specify which team but you can only re-use one of the two.

So let me clarify this:

-There's 13 weeks in the season, but we can re-use one of our double-pick teams, so that means that there is one of the 14 teams we don't have to use at all if we don't want?
-Do we know which week is the double-pick week or will it be a surprise?

[Doc]

So let me clarify this:

-There's 13 weeks in the season, but we can re-use one of our double-pick teams, so that means that there is one of the 14 teams we don't have to use at all if we don't want? Yes, 14 teams, 13 weeks, means the last week you will have 2 unplayed teams. It means you have a decision the last week. It also means you don't have to use Vandy if you don't want to
-Do we know which week is the double-pick week or will it be a surprise? It will be a mid season, around week 6-9. It allows you to have a bonus team to be reused. I see it as a life line per se. Some don't see it that way but I do. Encourages me to hold onto the better teams so I can double play them, thats my strategy. If we want we can declare the double play ahead of time. Thats fine with me.

This is correct. I was in a similar situation with a tie in an NFL league and was force to take a loss. Felt it was unfair and see better ways to resolve it so in an attempt to be fair, those who played LSU will need to double play week 2 (because they are not making up the game-that is not the participants fault)

[Darrell KSR]

I was radioactive the first week. 0-5 in BTO, and couldn't even win an LSU game v McNeese State.

Stay away, stay far away.

I appreciate the accommodation, but will accept any interpretation. Just run of the green.

If I'm picking two this week, I'll include LSU to carry over. I really don't like them on the road against Miss. State, but with my picking, that's probably a positive.

I'll add the other later.

Nashville and Bowling Green were fun this weekend. Otherwise, it was a near football nightmare for my predictions.

[Darrell KSR]

Auburn is my pick for week # 2. If I need to pick a 2nd pick (and LSU wasn't a loss in week one), go ahead and use LSU. Will make my watching of that game/score more interesting; feel like I'll have something real riding on it :).

No, I'm not going to go ROGER GOODELL on you. Just 2 picks for you and Donnie for the games. Doesn't have to be LSU, any team is fine. Just want to be "fair". Wasn't your fault they woosed out and cancelled. Donnie has already picked so if he doesn't read the thread until after the weekend then he will have to double pick week in week 3. I'll PM and let him know.

You're telling me.

Due to LSU game being canceled in week 1, I went with LSU AND Auburn in Week 2. LSU survived a game-ending FG miss that would've cost them a win (and me a loss), and Auburn won in overtime. Might've been the shortest tenure ever in Survivor.

Doc, give me Vanderbilt this week as well.

Brief summary:

We started with 15 players. After 6 weeks, 40% of them (6) are eliminated, 9 remain.

Of the 9 that remain, 7 are undefeated, 2 have 1 loss each, hanging on for dear life.

JMO, but I think midseason, which is where we are, is where it is going to get tough in a hurry. I know it has arrived for me.

I show CatinIL, MITH, and Yeager with picks still needed for this week (and plenty of time).

If I'm reading it correctly, we had one more drop out last week, and several more take their 1st hit.

Started with 15 players. 7 are now gone, 8 remain.
Of the 8 remaining, 4 have taken a hit. Only Doc, Lfbj00, SalsaKat and Yeager49 are undefeated.

It is getting tough!

[Darrell KSR]

I'll take Arkansas this week, Doc.

Does not appear as if we will need that double play based on the hit many took last week.

[SalsaKat]

Not to mention week 10 (Nov. 7) every matchup is SEC vs. SEC and week 13 (Nov. 28) every matchup is either SEC vs. SEC or SEC vs. ACC. No "gimmes" on those weeks.

Really good game this year. We started with a decent number of folks, have about half left midseason, but only a quarter blemish-free. That looks pretty much ideal, especially with the games to come.

Doc, this has been a fantastic game this year. '

I saw something, of all places, on a gun messageboard, that we might want to do in addition to the SEC survivor game. Just wanted to throw it here so that between you and me, maybe one of us could remember for next year to see if we'd be interested.

It's a nationwide survivor game. The key is, you have to pick an undefeated team each week. Just like this game, once you have chosen your team, you cannot choose them again. Of course, by the end of the season, there are very few undefeated teams remaining--and if you have chosen them all already, you are eliminated; i.e., the team you pick every week has to be undefeated when you pick them, and after the game for you to survive.

Teams like Alabama would do you no good to "save" if they are going to lose to Ole Miss. They are no longer an option after that game.

Issues I see are keeping up with everybody's pick. In the gun forum, they require you to manage your own teams and post them each week as part of the game, which makes sense. Each week you post what you picked Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, etc.

Just something to think about for next year if we want to. I think SEC is more fun for us (frankly, I watch as many SEC games as possible, and very few others).

Doc, does this end with the regular season? If it goes to the bowls, do the rules for re-picks change?

[Doc]

Doc, does this end with the regular season? If it goes to the bowls, do the rules for re-picks change?

This week coming is the final week. You will have ONE UNUSED TEAM (see page one). All players who are left will go into the bowl playoff with the number of strikes they have remaining. The SEC championship game is excluded because nobody knew who would be in it. The "Bowl Elimination" will be like last year. You list ALL the SEC bowl teams in order of how you want them as most likely to win. As you get a loss you are eliminated unless you have 2 remaining strikes. So if your #1 pick loses and you already have on strike, you're out. If you have no strikes you are good until the next team on your list loses. It does not occur by order games played but by how you list the teams, and you must pick SEC teams. So if TN is playing Baylor in the Music city bowl and you think Baylor will win, then TN is going to be the last team your list. I'll have a tie breaker-likely be associated with the team from the SEC that makes the playoff. Also the SEC team in the play off (Alabama) will be for their FIRST playoff game only. NOT the national title game assuming they win that semi final game.

Also, we may do it as a "secret entry" where you don't post your pick but rather PM to me prior. This way its a true competition and people who put their picks in late don't get the advantage of seeing what the early picks are and use that to their advantage.

Red is incorrect pick.
An * indicates you have picked this weeks game (it will help as we move on, trust me),
A ## means you failed to make a pick

I really thought I had it this year :-(

Yeah, me to. SC did scare me a bit but then Citadel???

[UKFlounder]

Alabama

[Doc]

Not hard to guess who is going to play who. My money is on:

LFBJ: -AL
MITH: -GA
Salsa: -TN
Yeager: - TN

[Lfbj00]

Not hard to guess who is going to play who. My money is on:

LFBJ: -AL
MITH: -GA
Salsa: -TN
Yeager: - TN

I'm thinking Mick has had this set up to use the double-whammy secret voodoo jinx on the Cardinals....UK to win!!! :rockon:

[Lfbj00]

And with that, I will choose the...

Alabama Crimson Tide

[MickintheHam]

JoJa Dawgs

[Yeager49]

Tennessee for me,

Thanks for the explanation on the bowls, Doc

[MickintheHam]

n/m

[SalsaKat]

Not hard to guess who is going to play who. My money is on:

Salsa: -TN


You are correct sir.

[Doc]

All winners so we are going to the finals as we stand

Doc: - 1 strike
Flounder: 1 strike
LFBJ: 0 strikes
MITH: 1 strike
Salsa: 1 strike
Yeager: 0 strikes

Once the bowls are announced you need to PM me your picks with the most likely to win to least likely to win. As we go down the list, as you get a strike as a team loses so if my first, second and third team listed win but fourth team listed loses then I'm out after round 4. Those who have zero strikes have until two of their teams lose. Again, you pick the SEC teams so if the SEC teams go undefeated in the bowls we are ALL winners regardless of how we pick :rockon: meaning it goes to the tie breaker. I'll chew on that for now. Your picks need to be PMed to me rather than posted as this is a blind pick so those picking late don't have the advantage. Once everybody's picks are in I will post them. Can't put your picks in until we know the bowl matchups.

[Doc]

PS-will also be doing a Survivor Bowl game for everybody else that is just a ONE and DONE

[Doc]

So here it is. Finals time. Plck your SEC teams in order of most likely to win. As you go down the list and your team loses you get a strike. Those with no strikes during the season have one miss available and those who had a strike will be eliminated on their first miss. After each SEC place the number of points they will win by. This is the tie breaker. If there are more than one person going out in the same round, I will add up the number of point that that the SEC won by and that will be the tie breaker. Whomever is closest to that number, wins. So if player "A" and only 1 strike has AL 7, AU 7, MSU 7, TN 7(and TN loses) their tie breaker will be 21 (their 3 wins were by 7) Player "B" had no strikes picks TN 6, AL 6, AU 6 and FL 6 (TN and FL lost) his tie breaker number would be 12. Winning margin on the the AL + AU + MSU =18 whle the winning margin on the AL + AU =16 then player A wins because his tiebreaker is closer (21 is closer to 18 than 12 is to 16). I'm ONLY counting the VICTORY margins on the games YOU PICK correct. so each persons tie breaker target could be different.

PM your picks to me as this is a secret selection. Once all picks are in I will post. If you want to edit prior to posting, just pm me but once they are all in and posted they are final.

Cotton - Alabama vs. Michigan St. - December 31
Sugar - Ole Miss vs. Oklahoma State - January 1
Music City - Texas A&M vs. Louisville - December 30
Citrus Bowl - Florida vs. Michigan - January 1
Outback - Tennessee vs. Northwestern - January 1
Belk - Mississippi St. vs. North Carolina St. - December 30
TaxSlayer - Georgia vs. Penn State - January 2
Texas - LSU vs. Texas Tech - December 29
Liberty - Arkansas vs. Kansas St. - January 2
Birmingham - Auburn vs. Memphis - December 30

[Doc]

So for example (not my picks), here is how I want your picks listed:

Tennessee 12
Georgia 10
Mississippi St. 7
LSU 8
Ole Miss 6
Alabama 7
Texas A&M 2
Florida 1
Arkansas 2
Auburn 1

If Bama loses then my tiebreaker number will be 43 (12+10+7+8+6=43). If myself and anybody else make it to round five, it comes to the tiebreaker. I'll add the winning totals of TN, GA, MSU, LSU, and MS for MY tiebreaker (the other players will have a different tiebreaker number depending on their order). Whomever is closest to their number wins. If its still a tie then it goes to a second tiebreaker which is closest on the LAST CORRECT PICK, so in the above analogy, I'd go to the Ol Miss game. However far off I'm away from my prediction of 6 and the actual number. If we are still tied we move up the list to the next correct (LSU), then MSU, then GA, etc... incorrect (losses) are used for tiebreakers (this pertains only to people who have no strikes going into the finals) so if you pick GA to win by 3 but they lose by 3, in the tie breaker that is a perfect pick even though you picked the wrong team.

LFBJ
I know Doc has the final say on this, but it looks like you got me on the tiebreaker. (Doc ????) Congratulations LFBJ.

Fun game, Doc....let's do it next year.
Yeager

[Doc]

Well you both made it to round nine thanks to having no strikes going in

[Doc]

Since you both made it all the way w/o a loss, all 8 bowl win included in your tie breaker, both have the same tie breaker value of 207 That was the winning margin in the sec victories.

Lfbj missed the tiebreaker by 155 pts
Yeager missed it by 166 pts

So the winner is Lfbj!

[Darrell KSR]

Great, great job, Lfbj and Yeager. You guys were terrific.

[Yeager49]

Thanks for doing this Doc.

[Lfbj00]

Thanks guys...this was fun to do!!
