I will be running the pool again this year.....brackets get announced two weeks from today. I am asking for payments via check this year as paypal likes to crack down on "pool gambling" during March madness season. Payments are due by the first game of tourney on Thursday March 19

Details are below...everyone that was in last year already received an invite again..........

Scoring: Second Round: The weight for each correct pick is 1. There is no bonus applied.
Third Round: The weight for each correct pick is 2. There is no bonus applied.
Sweet 16 ® : The weight for each correct pick is 4. There is no bonus applied.
Elite 8 ® : The weight for each correct pick is 8. There is no bonus applied.
Final Four ® : The weight for each correct pick is 16. There is no bonus applied.
Championship: The weight for each correct pick is 32. There is no bonus applied.

Tiebreaker: The total score of the Championship game.

Maximum Brackets: You can have up to 2 brackets per user.

Constitution: Payment is $25 per entry. Max of 2 entries per person.

2014 prize payouts were:
1st: 2300
2nd: 650
3rd: 325
4th: 100
last place: 25
100% payout on total money

We will likely pay top 4 again ....depending on how many sign ups we get.

Let me know if interested.......(PM me or leave contact email here)

Hopefully, there's enough EastCoast Villanova/Virginia bias, a little WestCoast Arizona/Gonzaga bias and throw in some Wisconsin cheeseheads to make it easier for BBN to win this pot...:shock: :roll: :lol: I "triple dog dare" you pick those teams against the CATS... 8-)

#9...GO CATS
