Every pool gets it's own Personal Page. For example, the personal page for "Andy's 2013 NFL Pool" might be andys.htm The only restriction is no spaces, and no special characters (except underscores). Put the page name only in here. On the internet, your page will be under our domain, for example, http://www.castle64.com/andys.htm. So don't try to put in "http" or "castle64.com" or anything like that. Again, in the above example, it would be just "andys.htm":

Personal Page Name:

Set your deadline. Note: all games are automatically grayed out 5 minutes before game time. So you don't need to worry about Thursday and Saturday games: deadlines aren't as important as they used to be. However, you still need a deadline so that certain reports will work correctly. When in doubt, just set it to Sunday at 1:00 PM Also, you need to set your deadline based on Eastern Standard Time.
Deadline Day:

Deadline Time (IE: 11:30): (Eastern Standard Time)
