March Madness Survivor BIF

I'm sure many people will have bracket pools/BIF, but I actually enjoy this format. BTW if you'd be interested in an another MM BIF called a "Pick 8 Format" I may run one if there's interest. On to the details:

Pool Rules:

You pick one team to win each day of the tournament (the deadline is when the first game of the day starts). If they lose (or you forget to pick), you are eliminated. Once a team has been used, you can not use them again. Only the main 64 teams that make up a standard bracket are included (i.e. the play-in games, or 'first four', are NOT included). Tie breaker is the total seeds of all the teams you picked. Again this is each DAY Thursday-Sunday, Thursday-Sunday, then Saturday/Monday not each ROUND.

Beer Rules / Stakes:

1. You must have a minimum of five trades @ 100%.
2. 66oz of 90+ rated beer that is out of the winners distro, limited, beer you'd like to receive, etc.
3. Ship by May 15th. (Tournament will end first week of April)
4. Express your interest below and I will send you the invite and password. I'm using Runyourpool.com
5. IF YOU HAVE A PICK IN AT THE DEADLINE ON DAY 1 YOU ARE PARTICIPATING. You can't lose Day 1 and then say, "Oh I didnt know what I was doing, blah blah blah, etc. etc." And if you place a pick, lose and disappear from BA, I hope all your IPAs are forward dated 6 months older than you think they are and diacetyl is in all your barrel aged stouts.
6. <10 participants we'll ship to 1st and 2nd, 10-20 we'll ship 1st, 2nd, 3rd. >20 and I'll leave something in the comments.

Thoughts, comments, questions?

 

1. Correct - each day 10 picks, cant duplicate. Similar to NFL Survivor
2. If you run out of teams and someone hasnt and they pick a winner, they finish ahead of you. If everyone is out of teams or the final person losers placing goes to the tiebreaker.
3. Payout: Each person who did not win ships 1 box to one of the winners. Not 10 boxes.
4. Winner take all with the 2nd to last person going out taking 2nd place, 3rd to last 3rd, etc.

 

No - Pick a team, they lose you're out. Pick a team, they win you move on to the next day and cant pick that team again.

 

Yep, I got you guys down. I'm gonna wait till we get at least 10 to send out the invites. The site charges a few bucks after the first day, so dont want to start the pool and pay if we only have 5 or 6 ppl.

 

Looks like we have enough. I'll send invites out this week. If anyone else is interested, please continue to post.
