Any chance either of them post here or someone here knows who they are?
Sh*t, just saw this.

Very open to a split, no idea how best to execute it though.

I'm 2316833.

Edit - reached out to support just to let them know I'm open to a split. No idea if they'd facilitate. Would also be open to a two-way split if they'd be willing to facilitate and we can't reach the other user. In other words, IF either of us win we each get paid half the prize pool.

Too late to figure it out for this week but assuming we both make it to next week, we should try to figure something out. It will be hard to do anything unless nitrogen helps us though since there’s way too much on the line to work only off trust

Yeah, I don't see much way short of nitro helping. Even a neutral third party can't really do anything.

One other thing we can do if we gets heads up is coordinate picks via PM. I got heads up in another nitro pool last year and we did this.

The key is we need to both have the same "best pick" available. Where it helps is if there's multiple viable picks for each of us. If we can both agree on the same "best" one, then we can both pick it and stay together. If either of us "defects" they're just taking an equal or slightly worse pick.

Locked in Vikes. The guy running the pool has to post his pick early and he also went Vikes. Hoping it’s not a skew to Vikes. Making me wondering if I should go OAK.

Never mind lol. Totals were posted. 47/70 on OAK, only 11 on MIN. Cmon CIN!

I’ve won too many close games this season. I win a pool if Raiders lose for 12,500. Took 0 raiders today. Just ML them 7,000 to win 1,000. Will make over 30,000 in EV if Raiders lose LFG

On to the next week. My pool is gonna go to the end sadly with 70 left and 12 have double elimination left. Me being one of the 12.

Do I go CLE or NO this week? I’m assuming anywhere between 60-70 percent will be on CLE. If I pick CLE and they lose I’m still in while a good portion of the pool would be out but I’d have to go 5/5 as opposed to 4/5 in the last 5 weeks.

What is the best EV play for me still having both eliminations left?

That would be great if it didn’t lol. 70 left with 12 having double elimination seems statistically unlikely to end before week 17 especially as picks become more diverse in the upcoming weeks. I think after this week there won’t be many weeks having 50+ percent take rates.

This is really tough to find the most EV outcome, someone please help!

Used teams: SEA, HOU, DAL, LAC, PHI, NE, SF, PIT, BUF, BAL, MIN

Week 16 has me in a cluster ****. Out of teams I have left the best option I have is NO.

Week 12: CLE
Week 13: CAR
Week 14: GB
Week 15: KC
Week 16: NO
Week 17: LAR

I’m not sure if this is the optimal route. For weeks 12 and 13 I will be on the majority picks. I am also putting my faith into middling picks. Between the 2 I could easily lose an elimination. Week 16 seems rough in general regardless of it’s NO or another team. So I’m not sure if it would make more sense to use NO in 12 or 13 in hopes I make it to Week 16 with both eliminations in tact to secure and almost certain victory.

How do payouts at end of the season work? Does 1 strike get nothing if at least 1 person has 0 strikes?
