should be nice odds to win...i made it 20 bucks on purpose to keep the number of entries down (but the prize still decently high)

I picked my bracket, and am now trying to make adjustments but cannot. Is the website farged or have the picks been locked in? Either way, gayness is afoot.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 18, 2009, 11:07:09 AM
I let my wife make most of the picks... with hilarious results.

the system must be messed up because youve never not been able to change your picks pre tournament
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 18, 2009, 11:38:01 AM
btw its not farged up...mine works fine

need one more person for 25 and a $500 pot

someone ante up
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 19, 2009, 11:21:41 AM
I thought you said it was $20.  Oh noes.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: phattymatty on March 19, 2009, 11:24:15 AM
um...
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 19, 2009, 11:24:50 AM
is 25 x 20 not 500 anymore?
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 19, 2009, 11:25:14 AM
I read that as he needed another person's $25 to make $500, not another person to make 25 people = $500.

Carry on.  Nothing to see here.

By the way, may the best man/woman win... and enjoy my $20 that was hard-earned from oppressing people.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 19, 2009, 11:37:13 AM
can you put in another 20 that you wont win....i really want this to be 500
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on March 19, 2009, 12:03:10 PM
I'll do another one to make it. My girl filled out a bracket for fun the other night, so I will submit hers.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on March 19, 2009, 12:05:26 PM

Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 19, 2009, 12:12:49 PM

Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 19, 2009, 12:14:20 PM
holy shtein you did make it...you the man j

i thought i tried to get in last year late thinking opening tip of the first game was the cut off but it was noon instead because i didnt make it in time
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on March 19, 2009, 12:19:25 PM
Whew..that was close. Yeah, I read the cut off was like 15 after. Thankfully I was able to do it on my laptop with the aircard hooked up.

I think NC is more hick than Texas, buddy.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 19, 2009, 02:07:51 PM
NC = blue state
TX = bright red
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 19, 2009, 02:10:11 PM
first place - $320
second place - $100
third place - $60
last place - money back ($20)

i originally was going to have everyone send their entry fee to the winner....but because i am doing more than one prize please now send your entry fee directly to the address below so i can avoid a payout clusterfarg at the completion of the tourney

send asap to:

havas
7542 maiden head dr
hanover, md 21076

thanks

winner take all.

I would say a good compromise would be that the payouts get paid in that order.  So, basically, last place doesn't make their money back until the LAST person sends their money in to IGY.

Keep in mind that 3rd place is a best case scenario for me, and last place is more likely, so me proposing this is not for my own benefit.

Post by: reese125 on March 20, 2009, 10:27:37 AM
thats what happens when you try to be a rebel and pick upsets..I deserve last place

and whoever this cougar country dude is tell him to get lost

Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 20, 2009, 11:15:59 AM
lol at picking upsets on the most non upset day ever

if you didnt get at least 13 youre either really dumb or purposely picked upsets just to be crazee
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: rjs246 on March 20, 2009, 11:20:59 AM
I just ran the scenario generator and if all of my picks from here on out are accurate I will win.

I believe that means that this is money in the bank.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 20, 2009, 11:23:28 AM

see youre wrong as usual because there were plenty of 5 vs 12's and 6 vs 11's and 10 vs 7's wins over the years as far back as 2004

and if you looked on the point spreads on these 1st round games this year alot of the games were 1-4 pt spreads so they could easily of went wither way. So, I got cute and went against the so-called favorite on some of them and got burnt, so please stop acting like your Brandon Lane on one of the luckiest pools in America

hahaha


and if you had read what i wrote i never once mentioned myself...but if you wanna apply it to me as you so love to do then really what i was doing was saying what i did was nothing special

yesterday was a cake day where EVERYONE should have gotten 13 or more...if you just went chalk and didnt even think about the games you would have gotten 13

I let my wife make the picks.  At least she said, "Ewww, BYU?  Mormons can't be any good at basketball, can they?"

^^^
perfect example of how you could have not done well yesterday


there were only two games imo that were tough

tex am - byu
clemson - michigan
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 20, 2009, 12:28:53 PM
I have Clemson going to the sweet sixteen, I think.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: ice grillin you on March 20, 2009, 12:33:36 PM
you know the sweet 16 means they would have had to win yesterday and tomorrow...thats it
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 20, 2009, 12:37:20 PM
Yeah, but they lost yesterday, so my whole bracket is dead!
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on March 20, 2009, 12:38:41 PM
VCU pissed me off last night. I need Dayton to come through today.

My girls bracket is ok....not too crazy except maybe Texas beating Duke and Dayton and WKU going Sweet Sixteen
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: rjs246 on March 20, 2009, 01:35:23 PM
I have Texas beating Duke too. Because farg Duke. Also please insert some joke about your girl and I having sexual relations. Thanks.

So you came up with that scenario while pillow-talking after the 5 seconds of sex?
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: MDS on March 20, 2009, 02:02:20 PM
some of us went anti big 10 and picked any reasonable upset

in retrospect, picking a bunch of oafy white guys (northern iowa) to beat a bunch of slightly more talented oafy white guys (purdue) was stupid.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: phattymatty on March 30, 2009, 09:46:27 AM
clinched last place.  sweet.
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem

theres nothing worse than finishing 2nd to last place
Title: Re: March Madness Pickem
Post by: PoopyfaceMcGee on March 30, 2009, 10:51:48 AM
I can incredibly still finish in 2nd place if UNC beats UCONN in the final.

I finished 3rd place, as my 77-67 score pick was closer than the "Pat in Ti" pick of 64-58.
