Rules and settings
The core game is consistent: build a score, protect your player pool, avoid the cut. Your commissioner controls the format details that make your league yours.
A tie is only protected when it straddles the cut. If the whole tied group fits inside that week’s knockouts, every tied team is eliminated — there is nothing ambiguous about who is lowest.
Otherwise every tied team survives, and the knockouts the tie blocked carry forward with them. The next week settles that carryover first among the marked teams, in addition to that week’s own scheduled cut. If the tied teams tie again, the debt keeps carrying and accumulates rather than being broken arbitrarily.
Example
Week 1 schedules 1 cut. Teams A and B both score 0 and sit on the cut line while everyone else is higher — they both survive. Week 2 still schedules 1 cut. Among A and B, whoever scores lower in Week 2 is eliminated for the carryover. Separately, the lowest remaining team on the Week 2 board is also eliminated for the scheduled cut. So Week 2 can send two teams home even though the schedule says “1.” A team sitting above the Week 2 cut line can still go home if they are the worse prior-tie team.
