Week 12 in the Circa Survivor NFL contest delivered more than its share of drama – both through game outcomes themselves as well as through stories such as one participant failing to submit their entry on time – which ultimately cost them their place after making it 11 weeks strong in competition.
At the beginning of this week, only 96 entries remained out of an initial pool of 14,266, each now carrying an implied value of $150,168 according to Circa’s calculations. Over the weekend’s matches alone four contestants were eliminated: one due to missed submission and three following Pittsburgh Steelers loss against Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football (TNF).
Circa Survivor participants felt their anxiety levels rising with 33 entries – roughly one third – selecting Washington Commanders for Week 12 picks despite an unexpected loss to Dallas Cowboys that almost forced extra time but resulted in missed extra point kick. It proved an especially tough loss after their supporters nearly forced overtime when their touchdown almost got them there before an extra point missed denied them an overtime victory.
The Enigma of the Forgotten Entry
Circa has not released details surrounding why an entry was missed, however the contest rules stipulate that picks must be submitted at 4 p.m. Pacific Standard Time every Saturday before kickoff of their selected game – with exceptions only made for Thanksgiving Day/Black Friday games and NFL Christmas matches. Unfortunately for anyone who forgot to check-in this week – out comes their share of a record $14.426 Million prize pool!
Social Media Reacts
Social media users have expressed considerable outrage toward the participant responsible, many voicing harsh condemnations towards him or her. There has also been speculation regarding possible proxy usage; many bettors outside Nevada use proxy services when entering various football contests hosted in Las Vegas by Circa Sports; submissions must take place within Nevada state, therefore many opt to utilize one as well for submission to Survivor or Circa Millions which requires submission within its borders, thus prompting many others to do the same.
Human error or proxy mishap remains unknown, although most proxy services have measures in place that automatically submit picks when deadlines approach if they haven’t received instructions from clients. It seems more likely than ever, though, that contestant had made their pick.
