Many Admins asked us for a way not to include Thursday games as part of the picking schedule. Rather than eliminating them altogether (or at least providing that option) - we have made the following update to our Football Survivor platform:

OfficePools football Survivor employs a hybrid deadline to allow picks to be made/changed until the start of the FIRST game AFTER Thursday. So if a poolie does not choose a Thursday game as their Survivor pick, they will have until the start of the first game on Saturday or Sunday to make their Survivor pick for the week. If they fail to make a pick before the start of the FIRST game AFTER Thursday - it will be treated as a loss of life.
