I'm back again to run the pool this year. I will escrow the money for the pools and am collecting zero fees for doing so.

One pool this year, max 3 entries per person, $200 per entry. I'm sorry for pricing out some of the lower rollers out there but this greatly decreases the legwork I have to do and should still generate a good turnout.



Rules



I'm going to run through Yahoo with the same scoring system as we've always used (2-3-5-7-11-15). Allowing a max of 3 brackets per person. Payouts will be determined by number of entrants, probably paying out around 3-5% of the entries depending on how many people enter. All brackets must be paid for by Noon Eastern on Thursday. Any Brackets that are not paid for by noon will be declared ineligible. If you send $$ after noon on Friday, your bracket will be disqualified and your money will be returned.



All entries must follow the format of Bracket Name = "2p2name" (1 through 3)



So for my 4 brackets in the Yahoo site, it's



Zimmer4141 (1)

Zimmer4141 (2)

Zimmer4141 (3)



Payment



This is a cash only pool. I'm not a crypto guy, I don't accept BTC or other crypto as payment. There are 2 ways to pay me.

Paypal or Zelle. That's it. I refuse to use Venmo after having issues with them last year.


Put your 2p2 name and your 2p2 name only in the memo line. Do not put anything related to gambling, madness, basketball, any of that. Don't be an idiot.

Entering

Send me a PM if you're interested. I will send you a Google Form to fill out, the link to the Yahoo pool with password, and my Payment Information.

This will immensely help me track payments and entries. I'm working a full time job and have a 9 month old at home, so I'd greatly appreciate if you make this as easy as possible on me.



Please post in this thread after you've submitted your payments and brackets and we will track entries in this thread as a double check to make sure everything's squared away.



Happy bracketing!

I clicked on your name Ebes12NewAcct and it looks like your PM's have either been enabled by a mod or you posted enough so that they are currently active.

I'm sending you a PM now also.

User tbell paid me on PayPal. I did not receive a PM from this person.

Can a mod please remove my payment info from last year's thread?

Tbell, please PM me to clear some things up.

Apparently this needs to be repeated:

Please do not put "Entries" "Pool", "March Madness" or anything like this in the comments when you send.


Please put nothing in the comments. I know what it is for. You should not be sending me $$ unless you have filled out the Google Form. The only way to fill out the Google Form is to PM me.

Not sure I can send a PM or I do not know how to but when I go to Messages or click on Zimmer's name I do not see the option.

Love how there's multiple new accounts or ppl that can't access their old accounts. Seems fishy imo.

I have participated in this the last 2-3 years. User name is nogambolnofuture. Only reason I log into 2+2 is to participate in this. Not sure what is so fishy about this, but c'est la vie

it's reasonable to be caution, a lot of people go around the internet trying to exploit freerolls this time of year

AiM, mods can PM brand new posters, even if their PMs are not yet enabled. Other people can't PM then, and they can't reply to the mods' PMs.

None of that explains why you can't just use your nogambolnofuture user name. I'm not saying you have to explain it or that this doesn't happen to lots of people (losing access to account and registered email), but I can see how having a few people claim the same thing might be a bit of a red flag for some. Or at least a yellow one.

Mods, we have a thread in the mod forum where you can request people have PM privileges enabled early for special cases. I don't know what your requirements are, or who you consider legit enough for me to enable PMs for, so I'd ask you post any requests for this here:

Thanks!
