Not only are we on time, but opening a little early this year! TFF's favorite pick-it-and-kick-it game is back. Most of the time, we hate kickers. They warm up, they line up, and they miss. In this game, we love them through all their faults.  What's a Kicker Eliminator? Back in 2013, IcePhoenix decided to spice up the Eliminator idea by making one revolving around the most unappreciated of positions: the lowly place kicker. Here's how it works: Every week you select an NFL kicker. If they make all their field goals and extra point attempts, you keep playing! Any other rules I should know about? 1) You must select your kicker before kickoff of the game they're playing in by posting in this thread. 2) Once you have selected a kicker, you cannot use them again during the regular season. 3) If your kicker doesn't attempt a kick that week, you're eliminated. 4) In the last three weeks of the season (and beyond, if necessary), a kicker may be picked by no more than half the remaining players, rounded up. So if 5 people are left in Week 15, only two can pick the same kicker. 5) If all remaining players are eliminated in the same week, they all move on to the next week. Can I change my pick? Sure, as long as neither kicker's game has started. Do NOT edit your posts to change your kicker, just make a new post and say you are making a new pick. Try not to pick an injured kicker or, God forbid, a kicker on a bye week. So how do you win this thing? Simply be the last person standing! There are a few things to in keep in mind: - If more than one player is still standing by the end of week 17, the winners will continue picking into the playoffs. This has never happened since the extra point was moved back. - In the unlikely event that we reach the playoffs, any kicker from any playoff game can be picked. You may pick the same player more than once if they advance, but Rule 4 still applies. - If by some miracle two or more players make it all the way to and through the Super Bowl, well,, they're all winners. This will never happen ever. ....and of course, the game-within-the-game that has spawned countless iconic moments is back again! Kicker Roulette -Eliminated players still pick a player every week but with a twist - you add a number next to their name -If your kicker makes one from that exact distance, you hit the magical KICKER JACKPOT -Hitting the jackpot summons you back to the land of the living and you will be back in the game again -You may pick any kicker even if you picked them when you were alive, and your Roulette pick does not affect your game if you hit the Jackpot -Extra points don't count in roulette, the kick must be made as a field goal -You may hit as many Kicker Jackpots in one season as you can. If you're that good, you deserve it Just add "ROULETTE:" in front of your pick and your entry will be shaded a different color on the scoreboard. Since Kicker Roulette's inception we've typically been good for at least one or two Kicker Jackpots a year, so it truly does pay to play if you like kicker eliminator!  Please submit your kickers in this style: Week 1: NE - Tristan Vizcaino (please don't pick Tristan Vizcaino) quote:
