Never make a decision, by not making a decision.

I would like to play but I'm still not sure if the final rules have been posted or if there was a decision as to where the game was going to be played. If so could someone let me know. It's already halfway though Feb. and that means MARCH MADNESS is right around the corner!!!

I have about as much knowledge of college basketball as madonna has virginity.

Hey guys. Yes, the contest is still on. I've been on vacation so I haven't been checking the forums.

So this is where we currently stand: Yahoo Sports will open up their NCAA brackets next week. When that happens, I will set up an account and PM all the participants the name and password.

A question remains on how the prizes will be doled out. I think there were some suggestions on 75%-20%-5% for 1st 2nd and 3rd place. I am fine with that, but we need to figure out how to get those prizes out once the contest ends. The easiest way to me is to have everyone pool their "buy-in" with a single person and once the contest is over, that person can divy it out. I can see some complications arising if everyone just sends the the winner their cigars directly (which player will send how many? etc).

I'll edit my first post in this thread once I have the Yahoo account set up.

Again, I refer to the college football game that went without a hitch. If there are 10 players or less, 2 people get a prize. Either 6 send to the winner if 10 people, 5 if 8or9 people, 4 if 7 or 6 people, etc.

Who sends to who is based on who has resonded here they want to play, and whoever else joins later. Meaning so far the order is Sight, Wing, EJenne, Goldy, Sandman, KingJK, Vulchor. If it started today winner would get sticks from the first 3 on the list (not including self if won obviously), 2nd would get from the remaining 2 players.

IE----If Wing won and Goldy was 2nd...Wing would receive from Sight, EJenne, and Sandman. Goldy would get from King JK and Vulchor...............We could do a third place, but i would rather make it a nice 1st and 2nd instead of splitting up so much...just makes it nicer for the top 2 in a longer game. Again, all any one person would be losing is 4 sticks (or more if your feeling frisky).

I agree with everything Vulchor says here except the fact that I would be sending anyone sticks in this game J/K. I was the lucky winner in the football pool and It worked out really well to have everyone just send them to me. It's a benefit if you win that way you don't have to pay to ship off sticks then get them back.

I like this system....... Plus, I'm the automatic winner. So does everyone just start sending me a box of Anejo #77s each? Sounds good to me. LOL!

I am SOO pumped for March Madness this year! Syracuse is unbelievable this season, they should be #1 in the country this week and they should have secured themselves a #1 seed in the tourny! Look out Kansas, 'CUSE is looking pretty unbeatable...
