Week 1 Post-mortem

The first slate of football for the season has come and gone. Out of 37 entries, 15 of you were sacrificed to the Kicker Gods for a failure rate of 40.5%! Special shoutout to forums user Ches Neckbeard, who once again bet the farm on Austin Seibert only for him to miss his first kick and extra point attempt of the season - two years in a row! If you can't trust a guy like Seibert, who is now surfing the waiver wire in search of a new home, who can you trust?

Single-finger salute to our friends who will not be joining us in week two:

Announcing...REVERSE Kicker Eliminator!

You know, Athanatos had a pretty good idea here:

Athanatos posted:

It's an insanely good idea. The kind of thing that makes me wonder why we haven't been doing this the whole time. That's why starting now and beginning with Week 2 of the NFL season, we are doing reverse kicker eliminator. And we're gonna do it forever. As long as I'm running the show, there's gonna be normal and reverse kicker eliminator :toot:

How does it work?

Same as regular eliminator, but you're betting that your kicker misses one or, God forbid, doesn't kick at all that week. Same rules apply to reverse kicker eliminator as they do regular eliminator. If you are playing reverse, please just put "REVERSE:" in front of your pick.

For roulette, in reverse eliminator you are choosing the distance of a MISSED field goal attempt. As with regular eliminator, extra points do not apply to roulette.

If I just got eliminated, can I play reverse eliminator?

You bet your sweet rear end you can.

What about roulette? Or the grand prize?

Roulette is active for both eliminators, and there WILL be a prize for winning reverse eliminator just as there is for regular eliminator! It's a win-win-win situation!

The spreadsheet has already been updated for reverse eliminator - just click the tabs on the bottom to swap between leaderboards.

So for reverse roulette, you're picking the distance they kick from when they miss?
