2017 NFL Winner-Takes-All Picks: Week 7

in sports •  7 years ago 

ATS-WTA_2017_week7.jpg

It was another week of unfortunate performances for WTA contestants but the battle at the top was a little closer than previous weeks.


In week six of the 2017 NFL season and the Winner-Takes-All contest, there were no perfect records but there was an eight-way tie at 4-1. In the tie-breaker, @bethalea came out on top by guessing 61 points for the Monday night game between the Colts and Titans, which ended with a total of 58 points. She was able to beat the next closest contestant – @sardrt (49) – by a margin of six points in the first tie-breaker. Congratulations to @bethalea on the win!

The pot for the weekly contest was 42 SBD. The rewards for the winner have been transferred and you can verify the transfer in my Steem wallet.

Here is the list of contestants who tied at 4-1 in Week 6, with the tie-breaker in parentheses. Please remember that all weekly records will carry over for the season contest.

Contest Rules


1 – Contestants must choose one winner for each of the selected games. Contestants can only enter one weekly submission per account. Submissions must be entered prior to the first scheduled game time. LATE SUBMISSIONS OR EDITS MADE TO SUBMISSIONS AFTER THE START OF THE FIRST GAME WILL BE DISQUALIFIED FROM THE CONTEST – NO EXCEPTIONS.

2 – Contestants must choose point totals for each of the Monday and Sunday night games. If there are two or more contestants with the same amount of correct picks for the week, then the contestant closest to the game point totals will be the winner. Monday night games will be the first tie-breaker and Sunday night games will be the second tie-breaker. (For the weeks when there are not one game being played on each night, special tie-break rules will be mentioned and applied.) If contestants are still tied after the tie-breakers have been applied, then the contestant who submitted their picks first will be the winner.

3 – The weekly Winner-Takes-All records of contestants will accumulate throughout the regular season to determine a WTA season winner. TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE SEASON CONTEST, CONTESTANTS MUST PARTICIPATE IN A MINIMUM OF SEVEN (7) WEEKLY WTA CONTESTS. Contestants that have four (4) or more identical selections (picks and points) of other users will not be eligible for the season contest. The three (3) contestants with the best season records will share the season pot, divided as follows:


PlaceReward Percentage
First60%
Second25%
Third15%


At the end of the regular season, I will announce a potential playoff contest for a minimum of 8 top contestants throughout the season. The potential playoff format and rules have not been determined at this time, so watch for future updates.



Post Rewards and Payouts


The full SBD rewards from each of the weekly posts will be dedicated to the weekly contest payouts, seasonal payouts, and my fantasy sports development fund. These rewards will be divided as follows:


FundPercentage
Weekly60%
Season20%
FSD20%



Good luck to everyone!

You won! Be sure to check out the Week 8 post for the Winner-Takes-All. The payout will be sent after last week's post closes tomorrow.

Congratulations!

I really didn't expect that at all! I did notice that I'd managed to get all 5, but felt sure my margins were too large (because I couldn't remember what they were...)

congratulations winners...
