Survivor - Pickem Player Control Example 2012-07-19


Sometimes you may have a pool where some players play pickem, and some survivor, and then again, some will play both. So, the question is, how do you control it so that the player does not play in a game he has no access rights to?

We have exapanded our game controls quite since 2011, and it has become what we call "event" control. This allows you to create an event, and then specify exactly how you want access to that event to be controled.

In my example, I am going to create a SURVIVOR pool that players must be marked paid in order to play. This means, if they are not marked paid, they are not getting in. So here in my example, I will enable the "Pay-to-Play" option. And I have put in a price of 200. I have left the access code blank, since if people are not marked as paid, then they won't be getting in anyway.


Record Payment

Then I go into my player list, and edit the player I want to record a payment for. I select the Game I wish to log the payment for, and then move on to recording the payment.

I click on the survivor pool I wish to apply payment to, and put in the date and payment amount.

What if someone doesn't pay?

If you have enabled all the options like I have, and someone tries to get into the picksheet now, they will see this image.



What if someone is a good buddy of mine, and I want to let him play, even if he hasn't paid?

You can log his payment as $0.00 and it will let him play, but still show up on the payment report like this:

Notice how the one players payment shows, but the first one only shows a payment of $0. This is because I logged a payment just to let him in, but if I am watching my account report properly, he won't show as paid unless I mark him fully paid.

Now you can use this logic and apply it to any game, not just Survivor.

NFL Confidence Pools 2011-08-28
A confidence pool takes your standard pickem, and pushes it to a new level. With confidence style picking, you are given values from 1 to X. X is the number of games in a week. If your pick is correct, you are awarded that many points. It can make for some high point weeks if you can accumulate some wins. This image shows how the picksheet works. First you select your pick, and then click on the confidence box, and select the value you wish to place on that game. If you`re really confident, you place a high value like 16 on that game. more...
Managing Your Pool 2011-08-27
Probably one of the most important functions of your pool is the ability for you to manage it. When you setup a pool with superbrawl, your player id is setup as the manager of the pool in addition to being a player. This gives you the ability to launch your manager console, while you are playing, viewing a trashtalk board, doing your survivor picks, or just showing up to view your pool. To launch the manager console of your pool, login using your player id and password, and you will see this tools icon in the login bar.
