NCAA March Madness
« on: Mar 12, 2012, 02:25:15 PM »
So... anybody follow March Madness here?

I started a Pick 'em group at Yahoo so that we can all enter our brackets for the men's tournament this year and see whose knowledge random guessing is the best.

Follow this link or sign up with:

Group ID: 134748
Password: universe

I'd encourage people to sign up even if they don't know anything about U.S. men's college basketball. The deadline to fill in your brackets is Thursday, March 15th, 12:15pm EDT (eastern U.S.).


For those who pay attention to these things, I'll probably be using an altered scoring system rather than the usual 1-2-4-8-16-32 point system. Yahoo's edit page is not working at the moment, but when it starts working again I'll use a 1-2-3-4-5-6 point system per round and an upset bonus. These brackets don't include the four play-in games.

Also note that you can fill out two brackets if you want. Sometimes I do one normal one and one with lots of upset guesses for the heck of it.

Only one person has signed up? Really nobody wants to give it a shot for bragging rights on the forum?

Well, I'm rooting for you, Bill, whoever you are. ;)









I guess I could have put this in General Discussions, but I figured other sports threads were here, so...
