Default Survivor Season 23 Online Pool

as per the Amazing Race online pool here is the same for Survivor.
I have emailed all the Race poolies to join this one if they desire. If you are not emailed or would like to join this pool PM me your name, handle and email address.

Invite your friends or family to play along as well if you desire.

Rules as follows:

CBS Survivor 23 Pool

Goal

To accumulate the most points throughout the television show's season.
How To Score Points

There are three ways to get points:
  • Pick the overall winner of the show at the beginning of the season - if you're correct, you get 40 points. If your selection finishes 2nd, you get 20 points. If your selection is 3rd, you get 10 points. Note - if you make your overall selection late (after the week they are due), you will get less points for being correct (decreases 25% each week).
  • Pick who gets voted off each week (or is removed from the show). You have 20 points to allocate to who you think will be voted off each week. You can bet all your points on one player, or spread your 20 points among multiple contestants. You receive the number of points you allocate to the person who is voted off (or is removed from the show). On the show finale - we double the points to 40 and on this final show, you're predicting who wins - not who loses. You only receive the points you allocate to the winner of the show on this episode.
  • Bonus questions - Bonus point questions are created by Fun Office Pools and are typically worth 2-5 points each. A sample bonus question is "Which tribe will receive immunity this week?". Our pool will have 2 bonus questions per week Note: No bonus questions during week 1.
When Are Picks Due

Picks are due each week before the show airs on the east coast - typically 8:00 pm ET on Thursdays. You can change your picks after submitting them up until the deadline, so it is advisable to get your picks in early. Picks for the overall winner are due with the first week picks.
Default Picks

If you forget to get your picks in you'll get the default picks (picks made by Fun Office Pools admins), so you won't be shut out if you miss a week. However, there is no default pick for the overall winner - so you need to make that pick after you sign up or you'll lose your chance for 40 points at the end of the pool

Thanks for the heads up Cheese, I will try to be more on the ball from here on out.

Also give transplant some slack, this is very confusing for a grade 4 edumacation.
