Maverick 791 Posted September 10, 2015 I didn't see one created and thought it may be a fun thing to do. We used to do survivor pick em in the past.

SteVo+ 3,702 Posted September 10, 2015 If we get enough people, one-and-done is the best way to do it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) my only complaint about one and done is it's easy to lose 1/2 the group week 1 if there's a big upset or two and generally it just goes really fast, I think last year we did three strikes and it still lasted most of the season I'm also going to note that it looks like you have to have your pick in before the Thursday game no matter who you're picking, not sure if that's something you can change, or something you want to change, but it's something to keep in mind Edited September 10, 2015 by oochymp 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll wait to hear more input about the # of strikes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oochymp 2,393 Posted September 10, 2015 Pussies. Half of you are going to forget about this by week 5 anyway. at the very least it'll prevent people from claiming they only lost because they forgot a week, this'll probably be over by week 8 anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bangy 19 Posted September 14, 2015 I feel like Sparty needed the idea of the game explained to him. Either that or he thinks he's an motherfucking OG and was gonna guess every tough game right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
