Auto-pick
Missed pick = incorrect pick
A missed pick is treated as an incorrect pick. It costs a life and can lead to elimination.
Survival
Total lives
1 life — eliminated on the 1st incorrect pick
Rebuys (when allowed) are handled manually by your commissioner.
Wipeout
Entries stay eliminated on wipeout
Entries stay eliminated even if the whole field is wiped out in the same week.
Ties
Ties = incorrect pick
Ties are treated as an incorrect pick. They cost a life and can lead to elimination.
Corrected results
A corrected result re-grades the picks it decided
Results are occasionally corrected after a game is final. When one is, every pick graded on that game is judged again, so a pick can change from correct to incorrect or back. An entry eliminated on the old result comes back if the correction lands before the next pick deadline; a week it could not pick while it was out still counts as a missed pick. A contest that had ended can be running again, or end with different winners.
