Rules
Entry Fee
$5.00 - Those playing strictly online will need to get their entry fee to me via personal delivery, PayPal, or the old-fashioned way of USPS. I will be fairly lenient with the due date for those of you not immediately in or around C-bus. Please limit the number of entries per person to three (3).
The Rewards
- First receives 70%
- Second receives 20%
- Third recieves 10%
Deadline
Entries can only be entered online. The system locks down at noon on Thursday.
Play-in Games
There are now 4 play-in games - 2 on Tuesday and 2 on Wednesday. Although two of these games are 11 and 12 seeds, we will not be choosing the winners of these 4 games. If you make picks before these games are played, you will see both teams in the drop down. Once the games are played, the team name will be updated to show the winner.
The point system
- 2 pts for first round
- 3 pts for second round
- 4 pts for sweet 16 wins
- 6 pts for elite 8 wins
- 8 pts for final four wins
- 10 points for naming the champion
The Tiebreaker
Write your prediction for the total amount of points you think the final game will be. (If you think the score will be 76-70, write 146 on your paper). This is used as a tiebreaker if we have two or more people tied after the final game. The closest pick to the final combined score is the winner.
If you do not submit a tiebreaker score, then in the event of you tying with others, you automatically finish behind those with a total score written.
We have had to use a tiebreaker 3 times in the past 7 years, so don't forget!
