General Site FAQ's

Why do I have to Register?
We need you to register so that we can link your picks and answered questions to your site nickname. RealityTVPools.com is a very complex coded site that is based around your registered name. We do not sell, rent any information you use, please see Privacy Policy for more detailed information.

What if there is no correct answer for a question?
There may be a case where we ask a question that for some reason does not have a correct answer. For example, we ask which tribe wins the reward challenge but that week there is no reward challenge. In this case, all players who submit an answer for that question will recieve the 0 points for it unless we can find away to mark the question with your answers. We don't see this happening too often but it is a possibility. Also, if for some reason the person who leaves the island is not voted off, but leaves due to injury, etc, we will still award points as if they were voted off, even though they weren't technically "voted" off. This applies to all RTP shows.

How do you determine the overall winner in of a Fantasy Pool?
The overall winnner is the player with the most points.

What happens if I don't answer my Fantasy Pool questions one week?
If you don't answer any questions for a week, you will simply earn 0 points for the week. You will still be in the game and still be able to win the game.

What happens if the site goes down and I can't make my picks?
Unfortunately, our site occasionally goes down just before the episode due to everyone trying to answer their Fantasy Pool questions. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this but we try our best to keep the site running. To make sure this doesn't happen to you, it is recommended you answer your questions early in the week as you can always change them later with no penalty and this way you are guranteed to have some in.

Why don't some links work on the site?
Depending on what type of browser you are using will effect how some links react. There are many 'popup' links that open a new browser to take you to either another site or a small window showing you the information you are looking for. Try disabling any popup blocker you have while on RealityTVPools.com. The down side of this is that sites we link to have popup ads (which are annoying and the #1 reason RTP doesn't use them).

Fantasy Pool FAQ's

On the player panel why are the score points laid out like 80/80?
Some users signup late for a fantasy pool and points are calculated from the point of signup. The green points, on the left, are points that you have accumulated since signup, the points on the right are the total that the player has since the start of the pool. This method lets people play in the fantasy pool at any time during the shows duration.

Why are users names different colors in user standings and who's online?
There are currently 4 types of users:
Free Members - These are members that are playing in the pools for free, they are not elligable for prizes.
Donar Members - These are members that have donated money to the site, they receive certain funtions that free users don't (summary panel and weekly emails)
