Funny that Wisconsin sunk me and Texas A&M sunk you.

HI STEVE!

EDIT (3/31): Names have been unchanged to expose the innocent.

Although verily I should be at other tasks, I boiled down the victory conditions for the "braxas challenge", and barring fault found with my reasoning here they be:

Joah, KingArthur1976, and markwars cannot win the braxas challenge in any scenario that does not involve manipulations of the space-time continuum beyond the scope of my tiny mind.

noodles has the best chance of claiming the prize: If Florida wins it all, so does he, outright. If Florida wins it's semifinal matchup with UCLA and then loses in a Championship with an aggregate score of 167 or less, he also wins via tiebreaker (if the sum of the teams' scores ends up 167 exactly, he shares the victory with Mr. Barkypants). If UCLA beats Florida and Ohio State wins the Championship and the aggregate score is greater than 147, he wins via tiebreaker (if the score is exactly 147, he ties with toddrew (me)). In all other scenarios as long as the aggregate score of the champiionship game is less than 167, noodles wins via tiebreaker.

Mr. Barkypants is hot on noodle's heels though, and gets in on the spoils in all scenarios barring a Florida victory in the Championship as long as the aggregate score of the Championship game is greater than 167 - if exactly 167, he and noodles kiss their sisters.

toddrew's only condition for winning (and completing the improbable comeback from last place at the beginning of the Elite 8 woo-hoo ) is for UCLA to beat Florida in their semifinal matchup and then fall to Ohio State in the championship with the sum of the teams' scores being less than 147 (if exactly 147, ties with noodles, as outlined above).

Uprising would have a better shot than I, if he had put in a tiebreaker. I am all for him being allowed to pick a tiebreaker as long as he can be trusted to do so independent of everybody else's tiebreaker, which may be impossible at this point If he did have a tiebreaker and GT took the title, regardless of all else, he could win on the tiebreaker.

So there it is, any situations I did not consider, or considered incorrectly, please say so. Also in a case of "who's noodles?" I may have switched around Uprising and KingArthur1976's identities, but that should be readily apparent to them (i.e., if Uprising did not have Georgetown taking the title and KingArthur1976 did). EDIT (3/29): I did, in fact, switch a couple of names around, including adding someone from the site who didn't even participate

[markwars]

If I ever need to get you fired I merely need to send that post to your boss. :P

[toddrew]

I think my hour and a half BattleLore game on vassal with DrinkMoreGuiness as I compiled CIP invoices would give more cause

[markwars]

More power to you!

[noodles]

I'm not kissing my sister. Go Gators.

[Uprising]

“Hoya Paranoia". No tiebreaker......I like to live dangerously.

[boom]
