NFFC Post-Season Contest Signup List

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Wed Nov 26, 2008 2:07 am

Here are the rules for this post-season contest:

Every year since 2005 we have offered an NFFC Post-Season contest to keep the fun going and to pay someone $10,000!! [Big Grin] It's a unique contest that allows you to start with one player from each of the 12 playoff teams and then add to your roster as teams get eliminated from the playoffs. Chris Schinker is a two-time champion of this event, having won in 2005 with Ben Roethlisberger as his QB and last year with Eli Manning as his QB. Nice job Chris.

In the past, we've offered a $100 entry fee contest and provided unlimited transactions for $20. The transactions were not part of the overall prize structure and in the end we paid back just under 70% as we partnered with a nearby company to run the back-end support.

This year, we are going to make the transactions part of the entry fee and offer three levels of competition: $120 entry fee, $60 entry fee and $30 entry fee. Each contest will be based on guaranteed prizes for 150 teams and will pay back 75% and the first 150 teams in each contest are guaranteed a spot. We'll open for registration in the next week and plan ahead rather than throwing this out the week before the NFL playoffs like we've done in the past.

Anyway, here's the basis of the contest with a $10,000 grand prize ($120), $5,000 grand prize ($60 contest) and $2,500 grand prize ($30 contest):

Section I: Official Rules and Regulations of the National Fantasy Football Championship
Hold ’Em Post-Season Tournament

1. Overview: The National Fantasy Football Championship (NFFC) Hold ’Em Post-Season Tournament in conjunction with Fantasy911.com will consist of 150 teams per league, with league prizes paid to the top five finishers. The NFFC Hold ’Em Post-Season Tournament will begin with the first wild card games on Saturday, Jan. 3, 2009 and continue through the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 1, 2009. Points will be accumulated throughout the playoffs and the team with the most total points wins the grand prize. Second through fifth place prizes will also be paid per league based on total points. Each week the number of points an NFL player earns for you will be multiplied by the number of weeks he has been on your roster, rewarding fantasy players who correctly can predict top players on this year’s Super Bowl teams. Players who have first-round byes automatically earn two times their total points during Week 2 of the playoffs.

2. Draft: Owners must manage a team of 12 players throughout the playoffs to accumulate the most league points. Owners will initially complete their roster by selecting one player from each team that qualified for the playoffs. In the second round as teams are eliminated from the playoffs, owners can have as many as two players from the same team on their Hold ’Em roster. In Week 3 of the playoffs, owners can have three players per team from their roster and during the Super Bowl teams can have a maximum of four players per team (for a total of 8 players).

3. Roster Requirements: Maximum of 12 players at all times. No more than one player per NFL team in the first round and no more than two players per NFL team in the second round. Owners can have up to three players from the same team in Week 3 and four players per team in Week 4 (for a total of 8 players).

4. Starting Lineup Requirements: Starting lineups will consist of:
• 2 Quarterbacks
• 4 Running Backs
• 4 Receivers (includes Tight Ends)
• 1 Kicker
• 1 Team Defense/Specials Team
5. Scoring: Players can accumulate points in a number of ways:

PASSING:
• .05 points for every yard passing (works out to 1 point every 20 yards).
• 6 points for every passing touchdown
• 2 points for every 2-Point conversion
• minus 1 point for every interception and lost fumble
RUSHING:
• .10 points for every yard rushing (works out to 1 point every 10 yards).
• 6 points for every rushing TD
• 2 points for every 2-Point conversion
• minus 1 point for every lost fumble
• 6 points for a recovered offensive fumble for a touchdown (RB, QB, WR, TE)
RECEIVING:
• .10 points for every yard receiving (works out to 1 point every 10 yards).
• 6 points for every receiving TD
• 1 point for every reception for WRs, Tight Ends and QBs
• 0.5 points for every reception for RBs
• 2 points for every 2-Point conversion
• minus 1 point for every lost fumble
KICKING:
• 1 point for every extra point
• 3 points for every field goal from 1-30 yards
• 3 points for every field goal plus .10 points for every yard after 30 yards (i.e. a 47-yard field goal would be worth 4.7 points)
DEFENSE/SPECIAL TEAMS:
• 1 point for every sack
• 2 points for every interception or opponents' fumble recovery
• 6 points for every touchdown (interception return, defensive fumble return, punt or kickoff return, blocked field goal return, blocked punt return). All special teams and defensive points are awarded to the team responsible, not the individual player. Should a kicker, punter or field goal holder throw a pass off a fake attempt, however, the offensive output for that offensive play would go towards the individual player, not the specials team. Also, any lost fumble or “muff” on a specials team play does not result in negative points for that individual player.
• 2 points for every safety
• 6 points for a shutout by the entire team
• 3 points for allowing 2-7 points by the entire team
6. Free Agent Acquisitions: The entry fee will be $120 and include unlimited transactions. Our other contests at $60 and $30 also will include unlimited transactions.

7. Hold ’Em Multipliers: Each week during the contest, fantasy points are multiplied by the number of weeks each player has been on your roster. Eli Manning is a perfect example from the 2008 contest. If you picked Eli Manning last year to be one of your starting QBs in the first week of the playoffs, you would earn his points from week one. Then after the Giants won that wild card game, his points in the second round of playoffs were multiplied by two. Then when the Giants advanced to the NFC Championship Game, his points were multiplied by three and then by four when the Giants reached the Super Bowl. Any team that receives a first-round bye, automatically has their points multiplied by two during their first game. Once one of your players are eliminated from the playoffs, you can pick up a new player for that upcoming round, but the multiplier would begin at one because you just added him to your roster.

8. Roster Time Frame: All starting rosters must be finalized five minutes before that weekend’s first playoff game. No lineup changes will be allowed after that first kickoff.

9. Number of Bid Limits: There is no limit to the number of new free agents you can add each week.

10. Tied Bids: In the event that there is a tie for the grand prize, the following tie-breakers will be used:
1. Predicted score of the Super Bowl game.
2. Highest weekly score of the teams during the playoffs (i.e. one team had a high of 220 points and the other team’s high score was 215, the 220 would win).
3. Highest score of the teams involved from the Super Bowl.
4. Highest score of the teams involved from the third round games.
5. Highest score of the teams involved from the second round games.
6. Highest score of the teams involved from the first round games.
7. Split the prize money in question.
11. League Structure: The contest will consist of the first 150 owners to sign up in each contest and prizes will be awarded according to the breakdown set forth in Paragraph 12. Any additional teams entered in the contest above 150.

12. Prize Breakdown:
$120 entry fee:
National Fantasy Football Championship = $10,000
Second Place = $1,000
Third Place = $500
Fourth Place = $250
Fifth Place = $100

$60 entry fee:
National Fantasy Football Championship = $5,000
Second Place = $500
Third Place = $250
Fourth Place = $150
Fifth Place = $50

$30 entry fee:
National Fantasy Football Championship = $2,500
Second Place = $250
Third Place = $125
Fourth Place = $65
Fifth Place = $25

13. NFFC Guarantee: Once a participant signs up online and submits valid payment, no money will be refunded to participants or co-managers unless the National Fantasy Football Championship Hold ’Em Post-Season Tournament is canceled. A team spot is considered filled when the entire $120 entry fee is paid.
Krause Publications reserves the right to cancel any entries not comprising a full 150-team league if there are an insufficient number of teams by Friday, Jan. 2, 2008. Krause Publications is not responsible for any loss or liability incurred by any participant or co-managers due to cancellation of The National Fantasy Football Championship Hold ’Em Post-Season Tournament, including but not limited to time taken off from employment, etc.

14. Prize Winnings. If your prize winnings exceed $600.00, The National Fantasy Football Championship must file a Form 1099 with the IRS at the end of this calendar year. If necessary, we will request your social security number. The Form contains the amount paid to you and you will receive a copy of the Form for tax purposes. You are responsible for paying any taxes that result from your cash prize. Please consult your income tax advisor for filing advice.

Just a reminder that we will have our NFFC Post-Season contest again this year after the regular season is complete if you need some fun and action during the NFL playoffs. This year we'll have three price levels: $120, $60 and $30 with NO transaction fees. 75% payout at each level and all prizes are guaranteed. It's a fun format for anyone who has played this before and now there are three affordable levels to compete at.

150 teams per level and it's first-come, first-served. If you want to reserve a spot, just e-mail me at [email protected] and we'll get cc info later. Thanks.

A lot of you guys need a fire under your arse to sign up for contests. Here's the BUMP to get the fire lit. Are you telling me that there are a few HUNDRED people here that don't think they know who each playoff team will use the most(offensively) to get them the WINS??? AND with a $30 and $60 level, there's almost no excuse NOT to play. For anyone to say, I really can't afford another contest, while they open up ANOTHER $9.00 pack of cigarettes, they're killing me. Now c'mon, sign up and show your stuff.

fandango, people wait until the last possible minute to sign up for EVERYTHING. I'm pretty sure these will fill. And if they don't, the prize structures will just change accordingly.

Guys like to sign up on the site next week when the rosters are available and pick their lineups at the same time. Basically what I'm doing now is securing everyone's spot and I'll help these guys get signed up online next week. You'll need to have your rosters entered before the first game next Saturday.

Right now I think we have good interest for all three levels. First 150 in each get in and we'll see how it plays out, but I think we'll be fine as this is a small entry fee for four weeks of post-season fun.

Again, if you want to sign up online you can do so at www.fantasy911.com. They will take your credit card info and process everything for you. The available players will be online next week once the playoff teams have been determined. You can pick up to two players from each team for Week 1, then no more than three players from each team in Week 2 and no more than four players from each team in Weeks 3 and 4. Should be fun as this looks like another wide-open NFL playoff run.

Have no fear about the cc process on Fantasy911.com, either. We work closely with those guys and they will be handling all of the payouts again this year with us. Good, good guys and there will be no problems at all. But if you feel safer through us, just contact me and provide a cc# and I'll make sure you're all set.

Good luck all.
