    Anyone want to run a separate bracket contest for points?
    I know SBR is running one and that is great but what about running another one on here for points? 50, 100, 200, 250? Some people might want to make it more but I'm low on points. Could run it over at yahoo sports or some other similar site? Any interest?

    I would like to do it. Did 20+ brackets every year in 2009-2019 and none in 2020. I miss it

      I’d do a 50 or 100 point buy in.

      Either yahoo or ESPN.

        i would consider a 50 or 100 also. i just ask there to be multiple prize levels if possible and not just winner take all.

              I would agree with this, it sounds reasonable.

                Do you guys know that you can use the SBR Contests platform to create your own bracket contest?




                No vig, just set how many points to enter and prizes paid automatically at end.

                      Make sure you know how many players you have before setting the bracket size.

                      If you make it 16, the contest wont start until 16 register.

                      Whoever sets it up, maybe contact LT Profits by PM and get some advice on settings to make it easier to get right.

                      He may even set it up for you if you have the players organized.

                          If someone wants me to take the lead, I’ll run one off of yahoo.

                          100 point per entry (3 max entries)

                          Would need 5 people committed before I start it up.

                              Id get in. Think on here would be easier so we don't have to navigate to another site, but either way in.

                                              Probably not....since I heard needed to know the exact # of entrants.

                                              Also not sure if it let’s you have more than one entry.

                                                  One entry per member.

                                                  Plus I dont think it actually does the sort of bracket you want anyway.
