Australian Open SBR Points Tournament

**EaglesPhan36** · 01-14-10, 06:35 PM

Okay. Sounds like upsets bonuses should be out. Done deal. What do you guys think about the bonus points for perfect rounds, correctly having all the semifinalists or the winner?

**Boner_18** · 01-14-10, 07:01 PM

I like bonuses for correctly picking an entire round but maybe just a flat structure which reduces deeper into the tourny (b/c of the lesser amounts of picks you have to make). Someone who picks 64 right should get more than predicting the final four... And I think that is as you have it now.
+250
+200
+150
+100

Again as long as it is clear I will go along w/ anything as you are the one doing the all the work.

Yeah, I like the idea for bonus points per perfect round.

128 is too many points for the final, proportionally. someones gonna go from 6th to first callin that right

I disagree Glitch. Picking the winner of the AO right now is not an easy feat. While it may come down to a few players who pick the winner how it ultimately shakes out would then turn on how they did in the early round.

Sidenote matches begin Sunday night (Eastern time in America)

Alright, I will be making a new thread for "official" sign-ups for this plus finalized rules and I'll see if there is something I can do to make some sort of bracket or at least link the draw so everyone has it available. Look for that this afternoon.

**ji03** · 01-15-10, 10:16 AM

ok sounds good. I can't wait.

**Boner_18** · 01-15-10, 10:23 AM

Great. Sounds good Eagles. Thanks for doing this!

I'm worried about the number of entrants to this AO tournament. Tell your SBR buddies, lets get some points so we can pay more than one position!
