| NFL Locks - Now Available |
10:11 PM ET on 8/2/11 by Jay Soester |
NFL Pickem has a dance partner. NFL Locks is the second game on to be created on the league website to replace a game previously run through Yahoo!. Survival Pickem will now be moved to unofficial game status while NFL Locks takes Survival Pickem's place in Tier 4 of the official game list.
Reasons for the game's creation are given on the game's rule page. Instead of picking a single winner each week, as was the case with Survival Pickem, you'll now need to pick between three and five winners each game week with the result, margin of victory or defeat and pick weight being taken into account to determine a score for each pick. Unlike Survival Pickem, NFL Locks will feature week wins and championship points for 5-0 and 4-0 weeks on top of championship points for overall rank, pick points rank and number of week wins rank.
If you have any questions about the game's rules or page, use the game discussion thread.

| NFL Pickem Available - On the League Website |
1:55 AM ET on 7/25/11 by Jay Soester |
The All-Sports Fantasy League has entered a new era. NFL Pickem has become the first game to be moved from Yahoo! to the website. The game will remain on tier three of the official game list and the championship points earned from the game will remain at roughly the same weight as they have been in the past within the new championship points system. I may need to alter the current championship points breakdown upon seeing how frequently the weekly points are given out through the beginning of the season.
The game format will be changing, however. Instead of simply picking the winner of each game, you'll now be predicting the score. From there you receive 30 points for a correct result, up to 15 for the margin predicted and up to six for each score predicted (plus another three if you get everything correct). The full game rules and scoring breakdown can be found on the rules page, which also features a section on how to participate. If you have any questions, please post them on the message board game thread.
The game features provided are similar to those Premier League Pickem, but more in-depth where possible. This includes providing the average picked score and result for each game and the NFL Standings if each member's picks were correct.
I hope to create a replacement game on the website for NFL Survival Pickem, currently being run through Yahoo!, within the next two weeks. A definite ruling as to whether or not Survival Pickem will remain a part of the official game list for the 2011-2012 season will be made by mid-August.

With Yahoo! finally adding a consolation bracket for leagues with more than ten teams, the Fantasy Football scoring has be changed to reflect the new format. The change means there's a reason to fight in the consolation games.

| Fantasy NFL Playoffs Scoring Clarification |
8:41 PM ET on 1/10/10 by Jay Soester |
Michael Jenkins fumbled for Dallas' defense after an INT on Saturday night with Reggie Brown recovering for Philadelphia. As a result, the Cowboys' defense has been credited with a lost fumble (-2 points) while Brown has been credited with a recovered fumble (+2 points). Those two stats won't show up in any of the displayed player stats on the game pages, but are factored into each's point total for the round.
