How will it work with Carl? If someone predicts he beats all 7 top seeds, do they also have to predict which of the 7 is eliminated?

Well, if Carl beats all seven, he really only beats one. I think that's the one someone picking Carl in Round 1 should predict he'll eliminate, i.e., people shouldn't be picking Carl multiple times. Because his win is still only going to count once.

Basically, should Carl triumph, you'll need to load the results as if six of them won, because the Sweet Sixteen can't have multiple Carls.

Remember, Carl doesn't count as a win (even in the bracket challenge) if he doesn't beat all seven. If he just beats you, then - according to the bracket - you won the matchup.

Thoughts?

I guess I'd probably still do this, but not nearly as excited about it as I would have been if we actually had a real 32 player bracket.

Not sure if eleanor was in for the avatar bet or just the sheep madness

either way I would like a 4th person in on this (to reduce the odds that I lose)

Wanna play Carl_Spackler?

Thanks for the try IBD, too bad the player base has shrunk so much.
