    Laker, I think you need to qualify actually... First you said the lowest-seed upset winner gets the points... But then later you said EVERY upset winner from 10 and below gets 5 points? I think you just meant the lowest seed that wins. (Or if say two 13-seeds win, posters who picked either would get the 5 points.)

    Why don't you clarify. I don't wanna see you give away all your points and/or have everyone yelling at you for promising them points!
    if I may offer a suggestion:

    every poster gets to pick one seed of 10 or higher.

    if they pick correctly:

    a 10 seed wins 1 point
    an 11: 2
    a 12: 3
    a 13: 5
    a 14: 10
    a 15: 15
    a 16: 25

    or something like that

    so entrants into the contest would have to decide whether to go with a low-risk #10 or go for a higher reward pick.

    if you do decide to go this route, I'd suggest starting it over, otherwise you're going to have people editing picks, or quoting their picks and changing them, which will make it confusing to grade. Then in the new thread, request that picks only go there. Discussion could be here.

    Of course, it's not my contest, so it's up to you, lakerboy.

      Capy read post 1 again. All winners will be honored with 5 points. You have to pick a seed that is ranked 10 or higher. Anyone who edits a pick is disqualified and I thk we all know that goes without saying. Its for fun I'm not gonna stress over it. Anyone who yells at me it won't matter cause I won't be able to hear them.

                    Wofford.

                    Wincy is a home team, that played a weak Big Ten.

                                              They're used to playing at a fast tempo, they shoot the 3 well. They played Kentucky tough earlier in the year. Baylor is a Final 4 contender in that weak South region, but their defense is suspect, and they might get caught looking ahead to Notre Dame.
