Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball
Okay well I think we are doing this this year. Here are the rules again, for clarity:
RULES: Every player starts with 1000 points. Each team in the bracket is costed according to the following: 1 seeds = 250 points 2 seeds = 190 points 3 seeds = 130 points 4 seeds = 120 points 5 seeds = 110 points 6 seeds = 100 points 7 seeds = 80 points 8 seeds = 50 points 9 seeds = 50 points 10 seeds = 40 points 11 seeds = 40 points 12 seeds = 30 points 13 seeds = 20 points 14 seeds = 20 points 15 seeds = 10 points 16 seeds = 10 points Your score is the total number of wins by all of the teams that you draft. Whichever player has the most wins across all the teams they draft at the end of the tournament is the winner. (If players are tied, whichever player has the team with 6 wins is the winner. If both or neither player has that team, whichever player has more 5 win teams wins. If tied again, whichever player has more 4 win teams wins and so on.) PM your selection of teams to me, and their associated costs. Example: 1 Duke 250 1 Gonzaga 250 1 UNC 250 4 Kansas State 120 3 Purdue 130 10 Years of Gencon/Scapecon Battle Reports - Comic Battle Reports - Probability Calculator App - Reverse the Whip Army Archetypes "It's all about the game." - Sgt.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball
I dunno if I can get into a game where I make a team with different units that have different point values, and I have to stay under a maximum point total. Seems confusing

If you want to just post your selections in this thread like Tornado did you are free to do that as well.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball
If I pick a 11 seed that is a play in game, do I score points for the play in game should they win or does the scoring only start after the play in games are over?

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball
Scoring only starts after play-ins are over. Selecting an 11 is essentially the same as it works in a traditional bracket: you get credit for either 11 for the games they win after the play-in round. So if you think Maryland is a vulnerable 6 seed you could pick both Belmont and Temple for the price of one 11 (40 points) at the moment, and if either of them beat Maryland you would score 1 win.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball
Okay, thanks. Was thinking about throwing 10 points at one of the 16 seed play in games for a cheap win, but no chance one of them beats a 1 seed so that would be a waste of resources.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball
Yeah 10 points for a 50% chance at a win would be really really good. Like I said, I'm not great at this format, but with the math I do if you can get a win for even 50 points that's pretty solid.

Mathlete
The team I submitted is expected to get 14.89 wins which was the highest total I could get from the system I was working off of. We'll see how accurate this ends up being.
