1. Game Selection and Entry:

  • Choose a game before its deadline.
  • Ensure your lineup is complete to enter; incomplete lineups won’t be accepted or charged.
  • Each entry deducts a fee from your wallet. Maximum of 5 entries per game.
  • Ensure your wallet has sufficient funds to cover the entry fee.

2. Team Lineup and Lineup Changes:

  • Stay within the game’s budget.
  • Your lineup should include:
  • 1 Captain (x1.5 points non-QB)
  • 4 SUPERFLEX (WR, RB, TE or QB)
  • Captains earn 1.5 times points. 
  • Each player can only be in your lineup once.
  • You can make unlimited changes to your lineup until the game’s deadline.

3. Terminology:

  • OPRK (Opponent Rank): This indicates the difficulty of the opponent versus the player’s position. A rank of 1 suggests the opponent is highly effective at defending against the position, while a rank of 32 indicates they are least effective.
  • FFPG (Fantasy Points Per Game): Represents the average fantasy points a player has earned per game up to the current point in the season.

4. Scoring:

  • Players earn points based on their NFL performance.
  • Official scoring is finalised after all games. Refer above for the scoring system.
  • Occasionally, data providers may correct player statistics, affecting scores. Once prizes are settled, scores and leaderboard positions are final. For queries, contact support@fantasygameday.app.

5. Prizes and Rake:

  • FantasyGameday.App retains a 20% commission. The remaining 80% forms the Prize Pool.
  • The higher you rank, the bigger your prize. Prize distribution:
    • Top 1% share 25% of the Prize Pool.
    • 1st to 5th percentile share 25%.
    • 5th to 20th percentile share 50%.
  • In the event of tied scores between tiers, the prize money is adjusted proportionally and then distributed equally among the players in the affected tier. The games total prize payout remains unchanged.
  • See the live leaderboard for prize tiers.

Example:

  • Entry fee: £7.50. With 1000 lineups, the total is £7,500. After a 20% commission (£1,500), the Prize Pool is £6,000.
  • Positions 1-10: Share £1,500 (£150 each).
  • Positions 11-50: Share £1,500 (£37.50 each).
  • Positions 51-200: Share £3,000 (£20 each).

6. Deposits and Withdrawals:

  • Deposit only via debit card; by law credit cards are not accepted.
  • Age and identity must be verified before depositing, this will have been completed upon registration to the app.
  • Withdraw only to a debit card in your account name. Withdrawals under £20 may have an admin fee.

7. NFL Game Issues:

  • If an NFL game never begins and is postponed, entries with players from that game are voided and the entry fee is refunded.
  • If an NFL game starts but doesn’t complete (suspended):
    • NFL Players’ fantasy points up to that moment will count towards the contest.
    • These points are considered final when prizes are distributed.
