@SatSquares what happens if not all squares get sold?
I also have an idea for a "Weekly" square, which is similar to how I've done a March Madness square before. Where you buy squares and the get paid out a certain amount for any game that ends in your amount. Instead of the access representing individual teams, they represent the Winning team and the Losing team. This would likely, at the start make it easier to fill out a full pool in the early goings.
I'm (unfortunately) the buyer of last resort. I'll make sure everything gets sold so we have a game. I hope you don't mind that. I can refund everything but, with such a cheap game, may be nice to get it going.
Let me see if I understand you weekly squares idea:
- Say, week 3 of NFL, there's one "Weekly Squares game." 100 squares sold, same number randomization, top-side winning, left-side losing team.
- Any game that hits wins a certain amount for that person.
That sound right?
How are payments split? If, say, it's a 100 sat grid, is it just 100 divided by number of games?
I dig the idea. I can probably code it up this week if there's enough interest.

Pretty much right. I can type in more detail later when not on phone/back from workout. But for easy math say it's 160 sats per square, for 100 squares. 16,000 sats total. There are 16 games. 1,000 sats to win each game (if you want to have quarter/half break downs you can) but only 1,000 sats total for each game. Let's say I have Winning Team 7, Losing team 3. If I had this in week 1 I'd have hit two games (Packers 27-13 over lions, and 49ers 17-13 over Seahawks) and I'd have won 2,000 sats of the win was for end score only (obviously different if you do quarterly/half rewards). The March Madness one I do at work is great as it tiers up per game winnings based on round, but that's for another day haha)
