5 Last Man Standing (ending soon for 2014/15) We have had over 16,000 paid entrants and over 470 competitions in Ireland and the UK with our flagship football game. A new set of Premiership competitions will be available to run starting in August, and in March for the League of Ireland. Calendar of events Premiership games run: August April NFL games run: August Dec League of Ireland games run: March October Aviva Rugby Premiership games run: August April Example of how a Premiership last man standing works for your charity Let s run through an example. John sees his friend s post on Facebook about the last man standing he s running in aid of your charity. He follows the link, registers, donates 10 and picks Chelsea to beat Spurs. Another 99 people join bringing the pot up to 1,000. Your charity has raised a cool 450 from this one competition. If Chelsea win in week 1 John goes through, but he won t be able to pick Chelsea again. Peter picks Villa to beat Arsenal, but it s a draw so Peter is out. John picks winners for the next few weeks until he s the only man left picking winners and he s crowned the Last Man Standing. Summary of the rules: 1. Pick ONE team to win in week 1. If they win, you pick again next week. Lose or draw and you re out. 2. You can only pick a team to win once in a competition. 3. All selections must be in 15 mins before kick-off of the first match. 4. Rounds of fixtures may take place on weekends or mid-week. 5. The competition continues until only ONE person remains and wins the pot. 6. There can be 2 winners if it s down to the last 2 and they both fail to pick a winner. The pot is split equally in this case. If more than 2 are left and nobody picks a winner everyone rolls into the next round.

6 Weekend Last Man Standing The weekend version of last man standing is being launched in April This game is perfect for April and May when there are not an adequate number of weeks to run a last man standing competition where a minimum 8 week period is required. However, it will be offered year-round from August 2015 onwards for all last man standing sports. How does it work? Your supporters decide which sporting event to run it with: Premier League, SPL or the League of Ireland. Players donate 10 and try and predict the correct score of ALL games in a single round of weekend fixtures. The organizer running it for your charity has 2 options: a. Just 1 fixture round: The competition lasts for just ONE fixture round, or b. Several fixture rounds: You pick the number of fixture rounds (e.g., 4 weeks) to run it for and the player with the most points at the end wins The scoring works as follows: Each correct score prediction: 3 points Don t get the correct score, but pick the winner: 1 point

7 If the game is a draw or the other team wins: 0 points Example of how a weekly LMS works for your charity Jimmy is browsing your charity site and sees your gaming page. He creates a weekly last man standing game with the Premier League, shares it on his Facebook and and Whatsapps all his friends with the link. 50 of his mates join from your website, each paying 10. Your charity raises a nice 225 from this competition. Summary of the Rules 1. The organizer decides the number of fixture rounds to include in the competition. Can be 1 or up to 4 2. The last man standing scoring is for the duration of a weekend fixture list. If the competition runs for more than 1 week, players repeat the process each weekend for the duration of the competition. 3. Predict the correct score of ALL 10 GAMES in a fixture round. 4. Each successful winning prediction gets you 1 point. Each correct result gets you 3 points. 5. The winner is decided by the person with the most points at the end of the fixture rounds decided by the organizer.
