    *** UPDATE ***

    There is now a scrolling 'standings' board, but I can't figure it out. I've seen points as high as 66 and low as 4 (I can't believe someone would pick only 2 correct), so even if 1st round games are worth 2 points a pick, that doesn't make sense, as 64 would be the highest. It did show ten entrants with 60 points, so maybe they all got 30 of 32 right and the 66 point entrants is an error.

    Either way, the way they did this is very strange and may not be correct, but I like that they are trying. Hopefully it could get fixed soon.

    Can someone please clarify the points awarded for each round, as I can't find that info any longer.

    THANK YOU TEN CLUB FOR THE SCROLLING TOP TEN LEADERBOARD!!!!

    So it shows ten entrants with 60 points. I assume 1st round games were worth 2 points a piece and these people all picked 30 of 32? And who knows how many other people got 30 of 32 as well.

    cool, although i don't see anyone with 60 points? Just 58 and 56 points, so i guess the people who are in first went 29-3 in the first round then.

    Anyone figure out how Jeff is doing?

    I haven't looked at it yet, but some pools award more for winning with a lower seeded team, say you get 1 point for a first round win, but 2 points when its an upset for example.
    Don't know if that's what is at play here.

    If I tallied right, he went 26-6. And lost ND today (as did I, eliminating any slim hope I had of winning).

    They've updated the site with a 10 person leaderboard, not sure if anyone here is on it. I also have no idea how it's being scored. This really is the shittiest run tourney pool in NCAA history.

    One question, did you guys enter your names and contacts when entering? Or were you just asked for your email, team name, and password? When I log in I see all my picks entered and it looks fine, but I'm worried I may have missed a step or something.

    I'm guessing if anyone had the Badgers on here, they're from the great state of Wisconsin. I sure have some great PJ memories from there, PJ20 and Yield in Milwaukee, but no way did I think they'd make the sweet 16.

    If you were from the state and serious about winning the bass,you still chose Nova.
