how the **** is this thing judged? I hit Missouri and Villanova last night but I hardly moved up.

I believe you get a bonus when you hit the first round upsets which is a joke. When a #13 upsets a #4 you get 1 point for the win and 9 points for the seed differential = 10 points which is almost as much as you get when a team wins to go to the final four. This is hilarious. The one with the most wins is not going to win this contest.

the point system is so dumb.....upset points is garbage...i wish I knew the point system before the contest started or read the rules......

I'm in the top 5-10 in wins, but I didn't pick a lot of upsets.....so I'm screwed b/c of that.

In my pool where the point system is 1,2,4,8,16,32, I'm in 1st b/c of me picking winners.

o well

They had the same rules at last year's contest Archie (that's before you signed up). They are ridiculous rules.

Same here Cabo, but I can still cash a Pitt futures ticket and be pretty damn happy.
