Escrows: can you PM me as people pay up? Thx.

I'll send out an email invitation to everyone that entered last year.
Fair warning to scammers: if you enter this pool and have outstanding debts, I will ship your money to those that you owe.

Re: *** HSNL $1K MARCH MADNESS BRACKET POOL ***

*** IMPORTANT ***

To be entered in the pool, your bracket must be filled out AND your payment must be received by first tip.

Every year somebody only fills his bracket out up to the Finals and doesn't pick a winner, or picks a winner but doesn't enter in a final game score.

Your bracket is not saved until you fill in a final game score and click this button:



When filling out your bracket there are these annoying "Tips" popups that follow you around every where. You can turn them off by unchecking this box:




*** VERY IMPORTANT ***

Change your email setting so that it is private. If you don't do this, randos will have your email.




*** WHAT HAPPENED TO THE $5K POOL? ***

We don't have enough escrows right now to also run a $5k bracket pool. If more escrows volunteer we'll run it.

escrow note: The $1K pool is capped at 75 total entries unless we find more escrows.

See last year's thread where we ran a $1K upset pool.

Three people entered.

that's because you made it the secondary pool, make it the primary one and people will do it

agame,
Admo does enough work organizing the pools that if he gave 3 point bonuses for picking teams with Zs in them I wouldn't really give a ****.

Re: *** HSNL $1K MARCH MADNESS BRACKET POOL ***

I'll obviously do a bracket, but I'm kinda disappointed about not having a $5K pool. If it will make the difference between having a pool and not having a pool, I'd be an escrow. I'm not super well-known in HSNL outside of the sports thread, but I've got several five-figure transfers recently where I sent last, and I've probably bet more money in the sports thread the last few months than anyone except BJ or luckybacon.

We've been looking for escrows for two weeks so I doubt anyone else is going to volunteer. If you're serious, PM me your FTP SN, City letter and avatar and I'll fire up the $5k.

There was an interest thread prior last year's bracket pool launch. The overwhelming majority (95%+) voted against seed weighted.

And if you do, lapoker would probably join. He was one of the few advocates of the upset pool iirc.
