Tech Stack:

Backend: Node.js with Express.js

Database: MongoDB with Mongoose ODM

Frontend: React.js (for admin panel, if required)

Authentication: JSON Web Tokens (JWT)

Version Control: Git

Deployment: Docker (optional)

Precision in User Requirements:

Strictly adhere to specified user flow and game rules.

Strategy: 

Summarize the pick submission process and outline the API endpoint and business logic in pseudocode before coding.

Strategic Planning with Pseudocode:

Begin each feature with detailed pseudocode.

Example: Provide pseudocode for the weekly scoring process, detailing steps from game result input to entry status updates.

Code Quality:

Ensure secure, efficient code following RESTful API best practices.

Implement proper error handling and input validation.

User Flow:

Users browse available Pools

Submit up to 3 Requests per Pool

Complete payment for Requests

Admin approves/rejects Requests

Approved Requests become Entries

Entry Management:

Each user can have up to 3 Entries per Pool

Entries are numbered 1, 2, 3

Picks are made and tracked separately for each Entry

Pick Management:

Users make Picks for each Entry separately

Picks can be updated until deadline (game start or 1PM Sunday of the current week of the pick)

Scoring and Ranking:

Picks scored after games complete

Win: Entry moves to next week

Loss: Entry eliminated from Pool

Each Entry ranked separately in Pool standings

Results and Standings:

Users view Picks/scores for each Entry separately

Pool standings show all Entries (multiple per User possible)

Pool members can view all Picks after scoring

Key Implementation Points:

Limit Requests to 3 per User per Pool

Track Requests and Entries separately (numbered 1, 2, 3)

Implement payment status tracking in Request model

Create Entry only after admin approval and payment completion

Admin interface for managing and approving Requests

Implement state transitions (Request: pending -> approved -> Entry created)
