Ladies and Gentlepervs of Lit,

Viper and Candy invite you to test your "love of the game" with our March Madness game.

Here's how it works:

Select teams that you think will advance from each region by their seed numbers (no school names lots of teams and need to keep this clean and easy to read) this will be done for the 1st and 2nd rd.

All top seeds that advance in rd 1 will get 1 point if you predict an upset they will be given a bonus pt in rd 1 and only Rd 1.

You must get 20 points in Rd 1 to advance to Rd 2

For example - West: 1,2,3,4,12,6,8 - if they all win would be 9 pts
Rd 2 will be the same but NO BONUS for upsets.
West 1,2,3,4 =4 pts if they all win in rd 2.

You must get 8 points in Rd 2 to Advance regardless of previous point total from Rd 1.

From the Sweet 16 to the final every time one of your remaining teams wins you will get pts. Sweet 16 wins are 2. Elite 8 wins are 3. Final Four wins are 4 and champion wins are 5pts

You will total up your score and then brag and pray we don't double check you for accuracy and spelling
(we are watching you VAN!)

Once the Selection Show is over, Viper will post the brackets and we can get started!!

(We aren't including the "Play In" games but you are welcome to pick that team as your upset team if you want :) )
 
no habla... that sounds like a foreign language. Can you pick teams based on colors and mascots?
 
The Ducks are a number one seed! Go Oregon!
This should be fun, but a tough year to handicap the games.
 
Well since I am not a real sportie like you all here...and yes, I am embarrassed to say I dont even know the teams...:eek:


But oh....oh, can I be like a mascot or something?....or wait, heck I can be a cheerleader...I have references...I really used to be one...oh please pick me... oh please oh please...:D:kiss:

I knew someone was going to go there with colors and Mascots.
I've even seen the Mascot vs Mascot real life battle picks. Like a Bear vs Gopher they advance the bear.
 
Giving this one a little bump in case anyone wants to post their picks :)

I will be posting mine later tonight, I think. I have to figure out if I'm willing to chance taking the local teams as a show of support even if one is going up against a #2 seed. Hmmmmm....

Come play our game!
