Anybody interested in a great 8 bracket
Kind of as a side bracket xlolx

The benefit is you get to start all over and feel good about yourself xawesomex
I'll need about 100 people to claim interest in this

How would that work? So far I got:

1) Chattanooga

Edit: Yes, I know, just using the eight for a smaller bracket challenge. :)

Okay we need to make sure of a few key points:
1) We're not diminishing the value of the ORIGINAL bracket - so there will need to be a "prize" for that winner
2) we need at least 50 people willing to fill out a new GREAT EIGHT bracket - 100 would be nice

Yes, with only CAA, SoCon, MVC, and Big Sky teams eligible (only Montana and Montana St. qualify out of the Big Sky). Sorry Lehigh, no matter how tough you just can't seem to get the respect you deserve. I like the idea of Chattanooga being the #1 seed.

How do I do this?? Do I get a PM or join a group, or what??

I'm in of course! Also, I'll multitask this post as a BUMP.

This would be an easy bracket to do! Simply pick 7 games!

I recommend using this site to run the bracket:
http://www.bracketmaker.com/

will make life much easier...

Yes it would be easier once it was put together, but not for each person...Each person would have to create an account on the site, and figure out how to correctly access it.
I think it would be easy and simple to just submit game winners. To simply send pm's looking like this:
Quarterfinals
A 24 B 21
C 13 D 10
E 44 F 32
G 17 H 6
Semifinals
A 27 C 13
E 33 G 24
Championship
A 31 E 24
That way if we get a large interest it will be easy to put together and easy to create. You'd just submit your bracket and claim being in the competition all in one post. How does that sound? Cleets? Ursus?

I'm not sure I understand completely

But I'll be getting with Ursus shortly on this and we can all discuss

I know you want to brag up your own team, but if you actually look into it, no one got ruined from picking towson. The biggest hits were taken from Appalachian State losing, also Wofford, JMU, and New Hampshire hurt too. Nice try though.

Now gentlemen,
Lets not get too snarky on the Bracket thread...
We're in the process of putting a new one together right now - stay tuned

I was just saying that each person would send a PM looking like that. They just go through each round and pick each game. That way brackets wouldn't need to be made. They would list each game and give the score of each game. It's the quarterfinals already, so they would only need 7 games.

Ursus is on board with the New Bracket Challenge (part 2)
he'll be getting with you shortly

So basically every thread this time of year - becomes a smack thread - I've accepted that now...
(Actually I kind of like it.. but as a moderator I'm probably not supposed to admit that)

Cleets

If this bracket ever gets off the ground... Here's how it will work

1) Anybody can enter - even the guys that played the "original Bracket"
2) It is possible to win both brackets at once - yeah that's right... or place in both
3) It will be for "lesser" prizes and smaller gifts


I get a deal on Starbucks cards - so if you don't like them - tough ****

1st place: $30 Starbucks card
2nd place: $20 Starbucks card
3rd place: Zing..!!! Nuthin'

Sorry Cleets, I campaigned as hard as I could for countless hours, but I only managed 75 brackets out of these AGS'ers. Should I delete all the numbers and scrap the brackets? ;)

I'm still frankly flabbergasted that someone from the back-water state of Washington could score Starbucks gift cards! What are the odds? ;)
