Yes, There were errors. Check the last table posted, I think I corrected them all.

2. Need @dpeks13 to pick 4 more squares.
3. Before 4:00 p.m. EDT today, I will randomly assign Statesvegas eight more squares

Thanks for the picks, @dpeks13, the updated table is below.

I still haven't heard from @k9dr, but I texted him. After all this effort, I don't want to scrap this pool. I am willing to buy out k9dr if he doesn't want to agree to the new terms for the pool (OPTION 2).

2. Before 4:00 p.m. EDT today, I will randomly assign Statesvegas eight more squares.
3. After 4:00 p.m. EDT today, I will assign random digits to the top row and first column

 

[WedgeRock]

Okay, its 4:00 and I haven't heard from @k9dr. I assume he's super busy, so I am going to buy out his $20 in squares. If he comes back, I'll sell him his squares back (yes, he gets to see his numbers and decide if he wants them), including his extra four squares. I've played cards with k9dr and he's an honest guy. I would prefer he reclaim his squares before any games go final, but if he reclaims them back after final score(s), especially if he wins a square, I will take him at his word that he would've claimed them any way -- we're not talking life changing money here.

So let's get four more squares for k9dr: I3, G3, G9, C9

And now let's assign Statesvegas 8 additional random squares: A3, A9, H1, C5, C10, B1, F8, E2

Now, let's randomizer the numbers across the top:

And last, lets randomize the numbers along the side:

Now, let's update the table:

C8 is still open. If that square hits, the prize is awarded to other winner(s) in the same round, or if there are no winners in the same round, to the winner(s) of the previous round.

Reminder that the higher seed has the numbers across the top and the lower seed along the side. If two teams with the same seed play each other, the team from the region that is alphabetically first will have the top numbers.

Only final scores count, so if the game goes into overtime, the score at the end of regulation doesn't matter.

Good luck!

I’m sure K9dr is going to be in. Probably has a poodle emergency.

Can someone get the squares in a pdf or something I can screenshot them all on one page? Would make it a lot easier looking on my phone.

Thanks for putting together @WedgeRock

 

[soccerdadof3]

Thanks for all your work to make this happen..

I'm doing that now for the same reason. Drop me a PM and I'll email you a copy.

 

[k9dr]

Sorry, skiing in Colorado and sketchy cell service on the slopes. I have not looked at the numbers and am fine with whatever.

 

[WedgeRock]

k9dr is in. He had an emergency -- the slopes were calling him -- and his cell coverage was spotty.

 

[WedgeRock]

This .pdf was emailed to those who asked. If there is a typo, the table posted in this thread controls over this .pdf, but I'm pretty sure its accurate.

If you want a copy, drop me a PM with your email address.

Lol..this is the only one of my brackets I'm winning in..

 

[dkersey]

@JDPoker wins the Marquette/NC game, subject to verification from @WedgeRock .

 

[shorticus]

Damnit @WedgeRock you gotta tag me in these!

 

[dkersey]

@dkersey wins the Gonzaga/Purdue game, subject to verification from @WedgeRock.

 

[WedgeRock]

@JDPoker wins the Marquette/NC game, subject to verification from @WedgeRock .

Yep.

@dkersey wins the Gonzaga/Purdue game, subject to verification from @WedgeRock.

Um...no? I had myself down for 8-0. You had it backwards. Gonzaga was a #5 seed, so it had the numbers on the side, Purdue was a #1 seed, so it had the numbers across the top.

@soccerdadof3 won the Duke/Houston game and @k9dr won the Creighton/Tennessee game.

 

[WedgeRock]

@soccerdadof3 +$24.75
@JDPoker +$16.50
@dkersey +$8.25
@k9dr +$8.25
@WedgeRock +$8.25

Elite 8 winners are with $24.75 each.
