User Picks is a free college-football pick'em with two games in it. 5-Lines is the original: every week you pick five teams to cover the spread. Your lines lock the moment you submit, so you are graded against the number you actually took, not a later move. Death Race 100 is the survivor game. Pick as many teams as you like each week, straight up — no spread, just win the game. First to 100 wins takes the season. One loss and your race is over. The format is Shane Ryan's, credited and linked in the app. Everyone plays in one global pool. Picks are public as soon as they land — copying a rival is fair game. 5-Lines standings rank by wins only, with equal wins sharing a rank. The Death Race 100 board ranks by win count, with finishers in finishing order. Leagues are a lens, not a second competition. Create or join with a code to watch a smaller board, across both games. Your picks still count in the same pool. No money changes hands. No ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking. Sign in with Apple or Google. Delete your account any time from the profile menu. The regular season only — week 1 through conference-championship week.
