*No Seed Point Bonus means you just get the points for a win as per the settings applicable to each round
*Seed Point Bonus for all wins means that say you select a 10 Seed to win you would get 10 bonus points if that team won
*Seed Point Bonus for underdog wins only means that if your 12 Seed selection beats the 4 seed you would get 8 bonus points.
Simple, eh ?

'i' see you up on your math...which means no errors in the counting....but about 75 % of the seeded teams win the first round, plus...so the teams with the biggest guys, that are unseeded, tend to give a good showing ...a lot of close games for sure..sssaaaaayyyyy, just had a thought ...how about adding the points difference on the winning teams picked and subtracting points if ones picked team loses....say a team picked wins by 12 points on adds that to the bonus and say a team picked loses by 15 points, and that, then, is subtracted as well, point for point...and like wise to each game...lol...but that may be to involved...

Sorry BP that is too involved . We can either keep it very simple - no bonus points or have a degree of complexity that favors players who select the underdogs. However regardless of the bonus point structure the key to winning the contest is to get the championship team correct. Thanks for your input.

I think whoever is running and scoring the contest should decide .....but the seed bonus is an interesting concept.......

I sure hope I get this right. I haven't been this nervous with anticipation since I was wondering if I should buy blue or pink candy cigars for my first born!  |

How many brackets last year predicted that Loyola-Chicago would go to the final 4? I guess the trick is to figure out (i.e. guess) who will be this year's Loyola-Chicago.
Anyway, best of luck to you and your picks.
