    Looks like it's up to 12! Watching the play-in games can't wait for the real madness to begin!

    I can't find it anywhere on the actual site. I was in it last year and just used a link from last season that looks specific to me (includes user name). Anyone that got an invite just for this year able to forward?

    wow it's a bloodbath today with some upsets - 6 down, at least 1 more, potentially 3 if Zona doesn't win.

    16 Players and down to 5 after the 1st weekend. Crazy!
    I'm just looking to beat 2 more people to get into a box of beer!

    I'll also take 1st place!

    Good questions.
    16 participants. I can say that 4th got 1 box last year.
    Good to get this out of the way now. I know @MastaaaGrillaaa was nice enough to take a dive along with @mnbearsfan on day 2, so he won't have any skin in the game as far as payouts.

    Top 3 payout. I'm all for 3rd still getting 1 box, but whatever works. I'm too lazy to look up what last year payed out.

    Guy - catching up on my bookkeeping. I was gone till Sunday in Vegas watching games and then getting caught up at work. Could the following folks shoot me their updated shipping info or let me know if its the same as last year:

    @holzwama
    @johnyb
    @tripler7

    As far as payouts, we had 16 in the pool. I had said 10-20 and we would pay out first through third. 13 boxes to 3 winners. Payouts as follows:

    1st-7
    2nd-4
    3rd-2

    I was looking into the tiebreaker scenarios and it looks like holzwama, Tripler7 and I all have the same sum of seeds picked.
    What if all 3 of us were eliminated Thursday but other two survived? How would 3rd place be determined ?

    I'd assume they have them displayed correctly. The highest overall seed picked (Wichita State), then on down.
    I'm pretty sure that's how it goes. At any rate, I don't plan on tying anyone!

    @maxcoinage I think it's just me and you tied for tiebreaker points right now with 18. @holzwama has 15. Also, I do not think the highest overall seed picked matters, it's the sum of the seeds you pick

    @MastaaaGrillaaa is the tiebreaker the sum of all the seeds you pick CORRECTLY or is it just the sum of all the seeds you pick including the one you miss and go out on? I'm guessing we don't get any tiebreaker points for the losing pick, but we should probably clarify
