2) All selections must be made via the online software. No submissions will be accepted in any other format including email or phone call. No exceptions will be made.

3) The contest will run each week during the regular season.

4) Lines will be posted on Wednesday between 12:00pm EST and 3:00pm EST. The lines will not be adjusted according to live line moves. The Wednesday line posted will be the official line.

5) A total of seven (7) picks must be made each week: any combination of sides and/or totals.

6) Selections must be submitted by 10 PM Central Standard Time on Saturday if no Thursday games are being used as a selection. If a contestant is using a Thursday game as a selection then ALL that contestant's selections for the week must be made before kickoff of the Thursday game. All picks will be viewable to the public on Saturday after the 10pm CST deadline. No Thursday picks will be viewable until after the deadline.

7) Selections may NOT be modified. Once a user submits their picks, they are official and they cannot be change. Therefore, make sure the picks you enter are the picks you can live with for the weekend. No changes can be made, once the system accepts your selections, they cannot be changed.

8) Picks must be ranked from 7 units (highest rated play) down to 1 unit (lowest rated play). Plays will be ranked from highest to lowest (7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1).

9) All plays will be graded as -1.10 plays for losses and +1.00 plays for wins. This means a 7-unit play that loses will be graded as -7.70 units. A 7-unit play that wins will be graded as +7.00 units. If a pick pushes, then you will not lose any points, nor will you gain any, you will be given a tie status. The breakdown for plays is as follows:

Unit size/ranking	Winning play	Losing play
7 units	+7.00 units	-7.70 units
6 units	+6.00 units	-6.60 units
5 units	+5.00 units	-5.50 units
4 units	+4.00 units	-4.40 units
3 units	+3.00 units	-3.30 units
2 units	+2.00 units	-2.20 units
1 units	+1.00 units	-1.10 units

The contestant with the highest amount of units won will be declared the winner. Not the overall record.

Tie Breaker #1: In case of a tie, the person with the most wins will be declared the winner.
Tie Breaker #2: If players have the same amount of wins, then the players will go head to head in Round 1 of the NFL playoffs using 3 picks, instead of 7 picks. The points system will be the same. 3 units, 2 units and 1 unit.
Tie Breaker #3: If players are tied after the second tie breaker, then they will split the prize money.

10) There are NO bye weeks for selections. If a contestant does not make entries for a given week the record for the contestant that week will be 0-7 -30.80 units.

11) Contestants' selections will be displayed on the contest website each Saturday at approximately 10 PM Central time.

12) All decisions made by Phoenix Sports Ticket are official, binding and final.
