It's a mad mad mad mad March (part deux): Sign-ups!

Post by Schroberts » Tue Mar 12, 2013 8:29 pm

It's that time of year again... get excited! Image

One of the most wonderful times of the year is upon us, the NCAA Basketball National Championship!

Last year, I hosted a March Madness tournament for the first time (on lux). I had a great time doing so, and I think I learned a few things about the process. I'd like to get a tourney going again this year, and I hope to make it even more fun than last year! (I know, I know, how could it possibly get more fun?) Oh trust me, it can... This year, I'm going to give out very special medals to the winners!

That's right...
A SHINY!!!

∞ Schroberts listens to the ooooohs and aaaaahs... ∞

Selection Sunday is this Sunday (March 17), and the first round of games starts March 21 (I'm not going to include those silly "first four" games in the bracket). So players will have approx. four days to fill in their brackets.

At this point, I'm just trying to get an idea of how many people are interested in playing. You can either PM me or post here to sign up. Please, don't feel like you have to be a college basketball expert (or even a fan) to play! Even if you pay no attention whatsoever to college basketball, you can play with brackets. This is all about having fun! :D

(I'll post more about scoring specifics as I get an idea of how much interest there is.)

Bracketologists:
1. Schroberts
2. The Silken Knot
3. Jesterme
4. n00less cluebie
5. Lantern
6. Big Will E Style
7. Enzo1997
8. Nimrod
9. George874
10. Capicola
11. Llux Llama (with enthusiasm)
12. Hoodie
13. Kude
14. Engie
15. Heartscoffee
16. WhirlPlaid
17. Milltycoon
18. *Manimal
19. AquaRegia
20. Paranoiarodeo
21. Fast Cache
22. Plummy
23. JJazz
24. Marauder
25. Shockandawe
26.
27.
28.

Note: Using an upper case p in paranoiarodeo's name is a capital offense.
Lantern pokes para in his capital P.
Nim thinks para looks like a pirate with his capital P and hands him an eye patch.


It would appear there is plenty of interest. Thank you all for giving this a go! :)

OK - sounds like I'll have just as much chance and anyone else. I have not watched college basketball since the 1990s.
