subject: How Office Football Pool Manager Actually Works [print this page] The office football pool manager has been growing stronger every year in terms of fan base and registered members as well. The season beginning 2012 has come with more great features that enable one to easily register and pick a team. The features are meant to make the season full of exciting fun as people compete and try to outdo each other.
It was started a while back because not everybody could be in the field. It has been very helpful because it keeps fans up to date with the latest team news and developments as well as real time scores. This information is usually sought after as managers try their best in beating others.
One usually registers with one of the many sites available and chooses whether or not to become an administrator. Administrators manage pools where they can invite their friends, family, college buddies or work mates and compete against each other. The winner is the person who collects the maximum number of points in a week and the season winner is one whose sum total ends up being the highest.
When each invited member is logged in, they pick their predictions for the winner of each game. To get rid of ties, there are usually confidence rankings assigned to each game and the manager becomes the one to choose. The highest confidence ranking is the maximum number of games that will be played in that week and the minimum is 1; which also equals the points that one is awarded if things go according to predictions.
To further even the playing field, a means of point spread is usually applied to the last game of the week. Each of the managers gets to choose the points by which a team, in that last game, will lose or win. Depending on your predictions you can either score a tie, covering or not covering.
For purposes of fairness, each person must have selected his or her team by the start of the first game in that week. Those who will not have done so by then are locked out and their previous week selections are usually carried forward. The winner usually gets all the praise from members of their pools and they also claim bragging rights.
It provides people with a way to have fun outside the actual field. Winners are usually greatly rewarded. Ensure you register yourself this season with one site and put your prediction skills to use.
