Bracket filled out! Go Cardinals!

I plan on filling out a bracket.

Whee · 03-16-2009, 10:58 AM

Once we got locked in, I'll figure out a payout. Since we have a pretty good sized group, I think we can afford to pay put the first three places.
Post up any ideas you have for that.

I have no team to root for in the race, so I'll be on the Cinderella bandwagion when she makes an appearance.

GO HEELS!

Done

I would suggest if we are doing more than one 'winner', having last place sends 3 sticks out to 3rd (or whatever) place and the 2 'next to last' paying second (or which ever). Something similar to a poker payout where 20% get 'paid'. Once we have a final number I could design a hypothetical payout structure if you like and see what everyone else thinks.

You may want to post a link on the Contests board. Might get better turnout.

chippewastud79 · 03-17-2009, 07:32 PM

As it stands, assuming there are 16 players.

Hypothetical Structure:

4th - 3 sticks from 16th (a small consolation for the humiliation of getting dead last)
3rd - 5 sticks from 15th
2nd - 5 sticks from both 14th and 13th for a total of 10 sticks
1st - 5 sticks from each 12th thru 5th for a total of 40 sticks

Just my opinion, but we can tweak it if more players join or if anyone thinks this isn't fair.

Opinions? Yea's/Nah's?

ade06 · 03-17-2009, 08:01 PM

Yea

BryanB · 03-18-2009, 06:24 AM

cle_smoker · 03-18-2009, 06:38 AM
