1) Pick one of the 4 teams
at each seeding level. You will end up with 16 teams. This will
be your team.
2) As each of your teams wins
you get points, and the top three point getters at the end win.
There will be three prizes for 1st (60%),
2nd (25%) and 3rd (15%) place.
More detail:
Everyone picks one team in each of the seedings.
That is, everybody picks one of the #1 seeds, one of the #2 seeds,
one of the #3 seeds...and so on through #16 seeds. For the mathmatically
challenged, that means you will select 16 teams. As each of your team
wins you will get points for those wins. The top three point-getters
at the end of the pool will win money. And that also means that we
can have as many entries as we want.
Your team wins 1st round = 5 points for each team that wins
Your team wins 2nd round = 7 points for each team that wins
Your team wins 3rd round = 10 points for each team that wins
Your team wins 4th round = 12 points for each team that wins
Your team wins 5th round = 15 points for each team that wins
Your team wins final round = 20 points
It will cost $10 per entry, limit of 2 entries per person. I will
also limit this to total 40 entries, just in case this gets to be
too popular for me to manage. Final money will go like this:
1st place: 60%
2nd place: 25%
3rd place: 15%
I case of ties, I'll add all % of each team and divide by the number
tied at that position. For example: if there are 2 teams tied for
1st place then we add 60% + 25% and divide by 2 to give us their winnings.
If there are 4 teams tied for 3rd place we'll divide 15% by 4.
All entries can be emailed to me, given to me personally, or mailed
to me with a check. If you mail to me please let me know it's in the
mail, as if I get to 40 enties I will reject those I get afterwards.
Please include $10 for each entry, or let me know when you will give
me the $. I don't need this right away but don't want to get stiffed,
either.
This will all be online, so you can monitor the entire pool within
a day or two of the games being played. If I get really ambitious
I may put a website together to submit your entries, but doubt that
will happen. Everything will be at: http://mysite.verizon.net/crmatous/ncaa
