 Trying to set up our friendly pool through your website. My question is about spreads. I noticed in the sample that spreads are whole numbers (ex. 3.0, or 7.0) so what happens if the score falls exactly on the spread (ex. 23-20 for a 3.0 spread)? I'm used to using spreads that are at 0.5 increments.

Thanks!

Their result will be recorded as a tie in the Standings.

I'm curious - is there a way to customize spreads so that they are always half a point (so a tie cannot happen)?  Thanks.

Currently no. However, tie-breakers are fully configurable, which includes selecting a tie-breaker game.
