30 each this year. Read the emails, rules or commissioner's note, you goon!

Payouts?

Will be published after headcount has stabilized.


-------------------------------

Alex and Plotkin,
Still waiting on you guys. Alex, I know you said today so that's fine. Matt, no word from you.

:rofl: Um, good luck with that bro. How did he place last year? Maybe I'll buy his bracket....

You can have as many entries as you wish.

I'm just hoping FFB didn't blow his entire mattress stash on Project First Build...



Opening Line set at -350.

He'll just ask his sister.

Brackets are open. Deadline to finish your bracket is Thursday!

We still waiting for people to join? Estimated payouts?

Yes, we're still waiting on a few stragglers. One of which is Coolmanvette75.


Deadline to complete bracket is March 20 12:15pm EDT



We'll be doing something special this year... Awarding 4th, 5th, and 6th places with something too!

• Estimated Numbers (Subject to fluctuate a hair):
  
  1st Place: 400
  2nd Place: 210
  3rd Place: 140
  4th Place: 100
  5th Place: 50
  6th Place: 30

Nice payouts, wish I knew what I was doing. Oh and I forgot to call you back.

bracket is done. time to officially say.

im gon win dissss shizzzttt

I've been unfortunately busy at work these last 2 days, so I haven't filled mine out yet, but it's okay. I plan to be significantly less focused Thursday and Friday :lol:

i thought it was due thurs-a-day

Yup, they get locked Thursday at 12:15pm... when the games begin. I'll be at work score-checking & attempting to stream 1 or 2 of the games if Verizon ever gets their **** together

People who make brackets but do not pay get a ban until the end of the tournament or they pay Mike. No joke.

I like that! :lol: To be fair, we'll can impliment that next year at the time of announcement.

Recently in my leagues, I've impliment a late penalty. Nothing crazy, but a few extra points tacked on if it extends X weeks passed the deadline. An additional Y points tacked on if it beyond that, etc, etc. None of which gets kept, so everyone likes the idea... except the stragglers of course :lol:

I like your idea a bit better. Perhaps we can take it a step further though? Can the members of the pool get decorating rights to the truant or banned member's profile? Think: avatar, user title, signature, post count, profile, etc. :nick:

"Your mothers a whore!"

We gave one guy a custom user title.

Roughly 18 hours left before the games begin and brackets are locked in! Don't wait until last minute!

But I like the suspense.

Make me one.

Work may be nuts tomorrow. All done.

Coincidentally, I was under the weather this day last year & was able to stay home and flip through all the channels score-checking all the different games in progress. It was awesome.
Sadly, I've used up too much PTO this winter and can't justify using another Personal Day. I don't think the boss knows what he's in for tomorrow...

Nothing?



Today and tomorrow is my weekend, so I might actually pay attention to a few games - see how some of my first round upsets make out. I just locked in my bracket, and joined an ESPN bracket with a few friends.

Quick poll - do those of you who play multiple brackets keep the same bracket in different groups, or change it up? If change, is it minor or drastic?

- Justin

I didn't do more than 1 bracket this year. But I used to change them mildly--The big points come from the championship game, not the earlier stuff.




Oh, I should mention I copied my bracket to the Billion Dollar challenge... I just thought I'd go through depression if it happened and I hadn't clicked a few buttons.
Chances are 1 in 9.2 Quadrillion though :lol:
