Saturday Survivor

Saturday Survivor is a college football survivor pool for conference play. Each week you pick one team to win in every conference your league covers. If your team wins, you stay alive in that conference. If it loses, that conference is out for the rest of the season. You can only use each team once all year. When every conference is gone, you are out. PICKS The Picks tab opens on this week, with the time until your next pick locks at the top. Pick one team per conference. Teams you have already used stay in the list, marked with the week they are in. Switch to the season view to see every week's matchups, kickoff times, and TV networks, and to set picks weeks ahead. A pick locks five minutes before its own game starts, so a team you planned for a later week can still be moved. SATURDAY Live is the first tab. It shows the games your picks and your league's picks are on. Each pick locks five minutes before its own game, and everyone's picks are revealed at kickoff. The team you are cheering for is green and the team you are cheering against is red. League members' picks show on the team they took, and a red ring marks anyone who is out of that conference if the score holds. Tap a game to open it for the score, the clock, down and distance, and which league members are on each side. ONE GAME MODE A win earns points you keep for the rest of the season, and a loss closes that conference for future weeks. The commissioner sets what a win is worth, can set a different value for a specific conference, and can feature one game each week. WHERE THE DATA COMES FROM Schedules, kickoff times, networks, and scores come from CollegeFootballData.com and API-Sports. When a time or network has not been announced, the app shows TBD. It does not fill in a guess. When a live score stops updating, the app says so instead of showing an old score as current. STANDINGS Each player's points, their best possible total, and one dot per conference: green if they are still in it, red if they are out. ALSO IN THE APP Multiple leagues at once. Standings and a history archive of past seasons. Notifications when picks lock and when results land. A commissioner can turn a league chat on or off, and read the league's weekly write-up here. FREE, AND NOT GAMBLING No entry fees, no payouts, no cash prizes. "Survivor" describes how the game works, not a wager.
