March Madness 2012 Contest

[DU]

The Bracket has Been Made.

Here's a free contest - using the same names from the Indy 500 I have the following draw.

43 members - these were randomly assigned (using random.org) to the top 43 teams.

The remaining seeds 11-16 were then randomly assigned to 43 members.

Some NPers get TWO teams! Some get one.

100 NP for Winner
50 NP for Final
25 NP for Final Four Losers

1 Ohio? 630 99.0

3 Mis_Chiff 510 61.2
4 Namepros DU 500 55.3
6 johnamePicks 450 27.7


Looks Mis_Chiff is moving ahead!

I am glad Miss is higher than me in her first bracket.

Check out Ohio? The bracket I put out there for RandyP. 99 percentile..lol

99th p that 4 ohio teams go this far. Guess you weighted them accordingly.

Oh well back to cheerleader pics:

 

[Archangel]

Sadly, this is pretty much true.

Where is that group, John?
I heard Ohio won today. Any ideas? lol

All i know is i am ahead of you now and Ohio State Beats Syracuse 77-70 to Reach Final 4

 

[Archangel]

If I win, I'll likely just get a charity ribbon

Highest Seed competition was, I believe, highest 11+ seed last to lose.

The winner was OHIO! Which Johname traded to Randy for the SUCKY DUKE who won the first round MOST SUCKAGE price.

25 NP your way!

Here's the amazing current position!

JOHNAME'S BRACKET IS SHOT TOTALLY. HE FAILED TO BEAT THE MASTER DU.

BUT

1 johnamegets2, UNC 800 820 99.5

This bracket has 2 of the Final 4 so far. Ranked in the 99.5 Percentile ! The TOPPEST MOST .5% That's of about 3 million entries I think.

I don't think I can beat that!

 

[johname]

JOHNAME'S BRACKET IS SHOT TOTALLY. HE FAILED TO BEAT THE MASTER DUDU.

I totally agree!

I don't think I can beat that!

You help me pick the first round:p

 

[DU]

1 KENTUCKY (3D)
3 Baylor (BD)

4 LOUISVILLE (hopkism)

1 NORTH CAROLINA (ecalc)
2 Kansas (JB Lions)

2 OHIO St (enlytend)

Prizes Left
275 Winner
150 Finalist
85 Final 4

EnlyTend is in the Final Four
Hopkism is in the Final Four

Who will join them tomorrow?

Prizes Awarded
25 Johname for SUCKEST SUCK DUKAGE Team
25 Archangel for BEST LOW SEED

(Ironically a trade of those teams ended up equal in terms of NP winnings but with Johname looking the fool)

Prizes Not Awarded
Johname did not defeat DU for 100 NP; however, the judges are deciding if the Proxy entries for Mis_Chiff and Johname should count. Right now both of those entries are beating DU.

In the Side bet:
Johname still has UNC for 25
I still have UK for 25

Archy still has Ohio State for 25 + 25

Very exciting stuff.:hearts:

3D - Yup. He lent me some NPs

Hopkism - Will love it but have no idea what the heck this was for. March Madness?

JB Lions - At least twice he followed your sig, for sure.

Enlytend - Is a She? I just know she's a cat.

Why do we have Rozelle giving the Raiders the Lombardi? I'm handing out the far more valuable NPs!

 

[johname]

Enlytend - Is a She? I just know she's a cat.

Shes not a Tom Cat!


Here she is getting ready to banned people!

 

[DU]

I will be on my best behavior then.

No. They're college students playing ball for fun and as resume fodder.

And the Chicago Cubs are a AA minor-league team masquerading as a major-league team. These things happen.

Should namepros rebrand itself TalktoDU.com or Talk2DU.com there both available. Naturally you reg them both, but should the main site point to TalktoDU.com or Talk2DU.com ? I kinda like Talk2DU.com even though i usually dislike the 2 for "to" switch.
