SZN Fam - We’ve come a long way from Commish’s 46-person survivor pool in 2009.

As our pools got bigger and bigger (BFIG NFL Survivor had 13,000+ people this year), you started to tell us louder and louder to consider certain changes.

We listened. And today we’re announcing those changes to you.

Announcement below. Jump to our “Choose a Pool” page at any time to check out the new offerings, including FIVE pools for March Madness (which is just 2 weeks away!).

We survey you after every SZN and read EVERY response. It became clear that tons of you wanted the same things:

• You wanted more pools and more chances to win something.
• You wanted the option to play against fewer people in a pool (while still keeping the huge pools that made us famous).
• You wanted the ability to pay for stuff you loved and not pay for stuff you don’t love.
• You wanted “fresh life” pools at low price points, to keep the fun and excitement going deeper into a season

We heard you, and we hope you feel our new model achieves all of this. If you have ANY feedback - good or bad - please comment on this post or email us at yo@theszn.com.

The big change: All competitions are now available to join as individual pools - most for just $9.99 - and you can also buy bundles of pools (like our “old” SZN model).

• The pools themselves are the same formats you’ve come to know and love: Survivor, Bracket, Pick’em, One-and-Done, Props, etc.
• We will be offering more pools per sport, like multiple survivors that start at different points in the season.
• You simply have more choice now. You can join a single pool (like our Big March Madness Bracket). You can get a 2-pool bundle (like our March Madness Bracket + Survivor bundle). You can get a “DO EVERYTHING” bundle that saves you 20% on all pools in that sport (like our FULL MADNESS bundle).

We currently have pools you can join for March Madness, NBA, Golf, Champions League, and Baseball. They’re all $9.99. Check them out here: https://www.theszn.com/choose-pool.

Our huge pools aren’t going anywhere.

Huge pools are our bread and butter. We hope our big NFL Survivor will eclipse 15,000 people later this year.

We’re simply giving you a LOT more ways to compete against a smaller set of people. And we hope a lot of you do both our big-participant pools and the smaller ones.

***

GM and I do this for all of you. We want to build something that continually brings a lot of people joy, and brings them closer to their friends and family.

So, your feedback MATTERS to us. We hope this new model achieves everything you told us you wanted. Please give us feedback (comment on this post or write us at yo@theszn.com), even if you don’t like something.

T-minus two weeks to Madness! GET IN!

Yours in legendary pools,
Commish and GM
