How a square wins

Last digit meets last digit

At the end of each paying period, take the last digit of each team's score. Find the top team's digit across the top and the other team's digit down the side. The square where they meet wins that period.

Digits

Winner
Square #70

Each pool chooses its paying periods (often Q1, halftime, Q3, and final) and whether overtime counts.

Questions

Do I need an account?

No. Open the link and pick your name. Your phone remembers you.

Can I buy squares here?

Not yet. Buy squares from your organizer. Command Squares tracks the results.

Where do the scores come from?

Live NFL game data, refreshed about every 20 seconds during the game.

My name looks wrong. What now?

Tell your organizer. They can fix any name or number in seconds.

Is my name the same in every pool?

Not necessarily. Each pool has its own names, so you pick yours in each pool you’re in.

Does overtime count?

Each pool decides. Most count the final score at the end of the 4th quarter.
