Many Admins asked us for a way to not 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 up 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 up till 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 prior to the start of the FIRST game AFTER Thursday - it will be treated as a loss of life. For clarity, the cutoff for each week of the 2021/22 season is listed below:
