Re: *** 2012 HSNL March Madness Brackets ***

I'm in for whatever, but if it's just 3-4 of us it might be more fun to do an auction or a bidding war or some kind of draft with bonus points or something rather than just fill out a bracket

Re: *** 2012 HSNL March Madness Brackets ***

you guys should do the random brackets for the sweet 16.
on yahoo they generate random brackets and its a ton of fun.

you could do something where each person gets 2 brackets and the total combined high score wins.

or you could do something where you each fill one out yourself and then also have a random bracket and the highest combined score of that wins.

I'm in if we do something that isn't random.

I'm in for this! We could do another 2k draft like we did last time (which I am clearly eliminated from at this point).

I'm good anytime. Please don't start one without me.

I don't mind randomness being involved, but I'm not down for anything that's purely random

With this few runners, people's brackets would look so identical that all the money would come down to like one or tow games

Essentially the same thing as a random draw, since there's no incentive to pick anything other than the most likely bracket for your non-random one

What about something like you draft teams minus UK and get points based on their point differential? So every time one of your team wins you get + that many points and if one of your teams loses you get - that many points? That way at least 2 of us are likely to have a sweat until the end, and possibly all 3. (i.e. you could be in 2nd with +50 points and someone with +55 and someone else with +40 are playing in the title game, so if the latter wins by 6 through 9 then the guy with +50 would end up winning)

Or like a calcutta, where we bid against each other and buy teams and then you get % of the total prizepool based on how far your team goes (we can seed the prizepool with $100 or $1000 each or something to incite action)


Just spit balling here

I like just a standard s16 bracket idea.

This is what I like.

I am in if it is a Sweet 16 bracket (no random picking). I would prefer the entree fee to be $1K, but I would probably play if it were $2K.

I win if Kentucky loses in the next 3 games and UNC wins.

Re: *** 2012 HSNL March Madness Brackets ***

Well, that makes it easy for me.

Ohio State wins = I win.

Otherwise, I lose.

If Wisco had won, I could've won if anyone other than UK won and OSU made the finals.
