Hey gang, apologies for being out of touch. Our daughter is in a rough health patch and we're in the middle of tests and trying to find a diagnosis. (not life threatening, but v painful) I thought I wrote this when launching the pool but must have forgot.

Time permitting, the OP will always list the payments received. Check graphic and get in touch if you shipped before timestamp on the top. I'm a couple days behind right now.

Creating the grids is a big timesuck and I stopped labelling individual squares and tracking individual payouts a few years ago. If that's a dealbreaker I'll refund asap.

Good chance you guys (and maybe a couple others) get bumped from the main pool. Pool regs have priority over new guys -- let's give regs until mid-day tomorrow to ship payments before locking this one up.

I'll probably start another second chance pool, which fills pretty fast during conference tournaments. To kickstart, I'll PM all the regs from year's past who don't have squares yet. If it doesn't fill completely, it will run with the first 50 squares shipped, at half the stakes and double the squares.

That's fine, downside to being a newbie. If I do get bumped and you run a second chance, you can roll my payment over to lock in a square there.

This pool is sold out.

The Second Chance March Madness Squares Pool is up and running. We had some late regs join, so I bumped jjbw, Mordahud, and zplusz to the new pool.

Drawing numbers today? I should be around to assist in the usual randomizing process.

We'll scramble the pool using the same method in year's past.



::: SCRAMBLE STEP 1 :::

Declare the two axis:
The higher seeded team (or "Favorites" by seed, not spread) are on the x-axis, which is the number line on the top.
The lower seeded team (or "Underdogs") are on the y-axis, which is the number line on the left side.


::: SCRAMBLE STEP 2 :::

Seed the list. I've seeded the list of 100 bets using an undisclosed method and sent it to an undisclosed 2+2'er.


::: SCRAMBLE STEP 3 :::

Generate the Squares Number List that determines who gets which square based on the seed list.

Audience participation time. We need a volunteer to do these steps:
a. Go to the sequence generator at random.org
b. Enter in smallest value: 1
c. Enter in largest value: 100
d. Press the "Get Sequence" button
e. Copy and paste the generated list of 100 numbers in this thread
Volunteer must meet these criteria:
i. is not me or one of the pool escrows
ii. has a 2015 or earlier reg date
iii. has at least 100 posts
I'll quote the first post after mine that does this correctly and that will be the Squares Number list.
