What happens if there is a cancellation and/or tie?
Cancellations
Each question cancellation reduces the amount of scored questions within an entry and regresses the entry payout down a pick.
• 5 picks in an entry regress to 4 picks
• 4 picks in an entry regress to 3 picks
• 3 picks in an entry regress to 2 picks
• If an entry has 2 picks remaining and one gets canceled, then the entry will be canceled and refunded.
After each cancellation the entry gets revalidated to make sure there is a valid amount of picks left and that the remaining eligible picks are all from 2 different teams. Entries that fail to meet these qualifications as a result of a cancellation will be canceled and refunded.
Questions where a player did not play are equal to cancellations. In the event of a player not playing in a matchup question, the entire question will be canceled. Below are the conditions for an inactive player:
• NFL - if a player doesn't play a snap.
• NBA - if a player plays 0 minutes.
• MLB - if a player isn’t in the starting lineup (excluding pitchers). If a pitcher does not start but does enter the game in relief, that pitcher is considered active.
• NHL - if a player is not active (skater), if a player doesn’t start (goalie).Soccer - if a player doesn’t start.
• Soccer - if a player doesn’t start.
• Tennis - if a player doesn't start the match.
• MMA/Boxing - if a player doesn't start the fight/match.
Inactivity is subject to duration asked in the question (e.g, 1st Half, 2nd Half, etc). Shortened games that are deemed “official games” will be scored as usual.
If a game is suspended, questions for the game will be canceled. Sports Predictor may also cancel all questions for a game that has been postponed depending on the duration and time of the postponement.
Ties
Ties are considered as eligible questions. Each tied question regresses the entry payout down a pick.
• 5 picks in an entry regress to 4 picks
• 4 picks in an entry regress to 3 picks
• 3 picks in an entry regress to 2 picks
• If an entry has 2 picks remaining where one is correct and the other is a tie, the user is subject to a payout. However, if an entry has 2 picks remaining where one is a tie and the other is incorrect then the entry won’t have a payout. If all eligible picks in an entry are tied then the user will be refunded their entry fee.
Cancellations rules supersede ties in the event both occur in an entry.
Can I edit or cancel my entry after submitting it?
Submitted entries are final. They cannot be canceled or edited for any reason.
What happens if there is a stat correction or data error?
If a stat correction occurs or the Sports Predictor scoring feed provides erroneous data, Sports Predictor reserves the right to evaluate the error’s impact on any resolved questions and entries. In the event there is a scoring error, Sports Predictor may resettle all impacted entries and adjust any payouts or losses from the incorrectly scored entries within 30 minutes of the game ending. If there are official stat corrections 30 minutes or more after the game has ended, those stats, entries and payouts will be determined by Sports Predictor in its sole and final discretion.
