My Player Isn't Playing
Updated over a week ago

One of the players in your entry is no longer playing - What happens?

Well, below are the stipulations for a question being canceled.

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/CFB - 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 does not have at least 1 second time on ice (skater), if a player doesn’t start (goalie).
• Soccer - if a player doesn’t start.
• Tennis - if a player doesn't start the match.
• MMA/Boxing - if the fight does not begin or if it ends in a no contest. If the fight ends in a disqualification or a draw, all questions will be scored as usual.

*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 postponed, questions for the game will be canceled. Boom may also cancel all questions for a game that has been suspended depending on the duration and time of the postponement.
