TOURNAMENT RULES
Enter team you think will win each game. (duh)
Use web-based entry to make picks.
Pick every game.
You get whichever team wins a play-in game if you pick it.
Type in a unique Identification for each entry, plus full name, location, and email.
I will not print email address.

Enter message in comments section of entry form indicating any special note (such as a new player).
Deadline is 11am CDT Thursday.
An email will be sent to you for confirmation.

The scoring is based on seed of the team times the round value for each pick correct. Thus if you pick a lower seed team to win, you will score more if correct. Of course, theoretically, you'll have less chance to win that game. Your call.

Round value times seed number of team.
Round 1 = 1
Round 2 = 3
Round 3 = 6
Round 4 = 10
Round 5 = 16
Round 6 = 26

Ties will be broken by:
1> Picking Champ
2> Highest % picks

If brackets do not play out as initially set up, pool may be ruled null & void.
