    Nope. I think last week's game almost losing to the Redskins, combined with a couple more obvious picks this week (Pats, Packers, etc...) led to people shying away. Turns out Atlanta isn't all that great?

    Was he in the "Part Deux" pool? I don't see that pick in the regular one... didn't you say that everyone lost in the second one already?

    Weird, it's showing up on the "Group Picks" page, but not the front page...

    Yea, Thursday games don't show up on the front page. Has something to do with things "locking" at 1:00 on sundays.

    Yea, everyone on part deux is out.

    Looks like Seattle gave me the ol runaround, but I got to watch the Broncos squeak by the Browns in Cleveland!!!

    Whew, this is going to be a nice weekend with Seattle pushing me through to next week already. Surprised I was the only one to bet against Kaepernick. Now I get to sit back, relax and root for some upsets!

    I went against my number 1 rule for survivor. Don't pick a road team !!! Not to mention a road team playing with their 4th string QB. If Arizona loses, we will be down to our final 7or8.

    Crazy week - 10 eliminated already, with 10 more on the fence tonight. I've got Baltimore to lose in the Reverse Survivor Pool (pick losers, not winners) so either way I'm happy - I'll be one of the final 7 here (BAL wins) or moving on in the Reverse Pool (BAL loses).

    @dannyfayy - What is the payout structure again? The original post said top 7, but I think we got more people than anticipated and that might have changed things. If it's more than 7 spots and Arizona loses tonight (leaving us w/ 7 entries remaining), would the extra boxes be split among the top 7, or would all eliminated this week enter a separate pool for those boxes?

    We were at 66, and 1 guy from the 1st round didn't want to participate. BUt we had someone else want to join in for round 2. So we should still be good.
    1. 14
    2. 10
    3. 8
    4. 6
    5. 5
    6. 4
    7. 3
    8. 3
    9. 2
    10. 1

    If Arizona loses, then everyone who was eliminated would fight it out for 8-10 place.

    Thanks! And do I remember you saying that you'll be assigning shippers based on geography? Or is there a chance there could be a "Sender Draft" for all top 10 finishers getting to pick who's beer they get?

    Sender draft would take wayyyy too long. Awesome idea... but would take forever, haha. I will assign based on geography, the best I can.

    I think we could do it over the course of a week via BM! Draft order would be the final standings, with each round having one fewer participant as the lower-finishing members already picked their box(es). Anyways, maybe something to discuss for whoever those final 10 are, because if there are a couple who don't check in here every day, you're right it would take forever.
