If I didn't informed @undisciplined about the washout of the first game, he would still be eliminated because the team you pick in a survivor pool needs to win, less than win would result in a strike. Wouldn't it?
I actually think Coins is right. Your team needs to win, rather than just not lose. Otherwise, @grayruby's strategy of picking a team that isn't even playing would work.
You don't usually lose due to a cancelled game. Maybe we should be picking some kind of weekly tiebreaker just in case there is a washout.
When I did the baseball pool if there was a rain out of a game and that game impacted whether a player would win the week or lose the week it was then decided by the team's run differential for the week. That's easy to do in baseball because teams play 6 or 7 games a week but maybe you can figure out something to default to if there is a wash out.

Yeah, I get it. I'll cover washouts in the next pool.
If it were for the last match, I would have given him a bye. But as I also picked from the first game, I thought, we have three more matches and it would be fair if he picks first and I pick the opposite team from the same match. I did. Stars won, my stars shone, he got eliminated.
I mean asking for another pick midway of a round was fair, fairer because I picked a loser team.
Anyways, I've idea how to deal with washout games for Cricket pools the next time.
