Survivor
What is Survivor?
Survivor is a last-one-standing contest available for NFL, NCAAF, and combined NFL + NCAAF. Each week, you pick one team to win their game. Pick correctly and you advance to the next week — pick incorrectly and you're eliminated. The winner is the last entrant standing.
Available as: Splash-Managed, Private
Contest Vault: Yes
Sports: NFL, NCAAF, NFL + NCAAF
Multi-Sport: No
Key rules:
You may only pick each team once per contest (unless your commissioner's settings say otherwise).
If all remaining entrants are eliminated in the same week, they split the prize pool.
Commissioners can enable optional settings like Revivals (bringing back eliminated entrants if everyone loses in the same week) and Additional Lives (extra chances after a loss).
Player Survivor
What is Player Survivor?
Player Survivor works like Survivor, but instead of picking teams, you pick individual players. Available for NFL only.
Available as: Splash-Managed only (not offered as Private)
Contest Vault: No
Sports: NFL only
Multi-Sport: No
Key rules:
Once you select a player, you can't select them again for the rest of the contest.
If your selected player doesn't play (or has no eligible players left in a slate), it counts as an elimination.
Depending on commissioner settings, you may be limited in how many times a given player can be used (once, twice, three times, or unlimited).
Extra Lives, if enabled, let you survive one incorrect pick per slate before elimination.
Pick'em
What is Pick'em?
Pick'em is a points-based format where you pick winners across some or all of the week's games. It can run weekly, over several weeks, or for a full season. Available for NFL, NCAAF, and combined NFL + NCAAF.
Available as: Splash-Managed, Private
Contest Vault: Yes
Sports: NFL, NCAAF, NFL + NCAAF
Multi-Sport: Yes
Key rules:
Picks can be made Straight Up or Against the Spread (set once per contest).
Commissioners can enable Confidence Points, where you rank your picks and earn the assigned point value for each correct one.
The entrant with the most cumulative points at the end of the contest wins.
Ties split the prize according to Splash's standard tiebreaker rules.
Squares
What is Squares?
Squares is a grid-based contest tied to a game's live score. Each entrant claims one or more squares on a 10x10 grid; winners are determined by the last digit of each team's score at the end of designated periods.
Available as: Private only (not offered as Splash-Managed — self-managed/entertainment format)
Contest Vault: Yes
Sports: NFL only (not offered under NCAAF or NFL + NCAAF at contest creation)
Multi-Sport: No
Key rules:
Grid numbers are randomly assigned, or custom assigned by commissioners, once the grid locks (typically at kickoff).
Payouts are based on the score digits at the end of each quarter (or whichever periods the commissioner sets).
A hosting fee applies for commissioners creating a Squares grid.
