- OH, YEAH!!!
it's that time of year again.
yes, i will be providing at least a prize for the winner. there could possibly be prizes for the top 3 finishers. prizes will be comics and/or comic related items (dvds, TPBs, action figures, etc). all i ask of the prize winners is to cover a portion of the shipping.
so, follow the link provided by dough boy and get entered.
feel free to post any questions.

- 12 in so far. still have a few days to get more entered.
in my opinion, the more people that are playing, the more fun it is.
it's definitely good to see return players.

I think some people only come to the site on Wed to enter comics, etc. So hopefully a large jump then.Favorite Quote: "You're not just some guy in a bat costume are you? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! - Justice League #1, 2011" Hunting for (mainly reprints/variants) - Please help! - See My Profile

- 34 entered. looking good.
after each round i will be posting how many teams i still have in the next round. i encourage everyone to do so. just a fun way to see how everyone is doing. just change the 1st number to how many you have still in. obviously we all start off with 64/64.
32/32
16/16
8/8
4/4
2/2
1/1
i will also be keeping track of all of the picked winners. how many people picked each winner and when picked winners are eliminated.

- Hey hey, first place at the moment. I went 29 out of 32 correct after the first round!
I had Purdue going all the way to the Final Four though - that one is going to hurt me.Did I err?

- My time machine must be on the fritz, because the second round was not as kind to me. I now have:
8/16
4/8
2/4
1/2
1/1
As long as the team I picked to win the final (Houston) keeps winning, I'm still in good shape. If they lose, my other picks probably won't matter.Did I err?

- 1st time in history without at least one #1 in the Elite 8. And I predicted it, correctly calling 2 of the 4 upsets.

i've said for years that i would love to see a final 4 without a single #1 in it. well, looks like it's finally happening.
