JRH's MARCH MADNESS (Winner: Wildcat57)

[jrh_cardinal]

And the winner is...

Wildcat57

This tournament will be based on the 2010 NCAA Basketball tournament. Each CC player will play as a college basketball team in the slot the team is actually in in the tournament.

There are 65 teams in the NCAA tournament, so there will be 65 teams in my tournament. However, this means that 2 teams have to play an extra round. Sorry. If you don't want to play an extra round, don't sign up as one of the teams in the play-in game.

Each round will be best of 3, so freemium is okay if they want to keep 3 slots open.

You will have 48 hours to join your games or you will be replaced by a reserve in round 1, or forfeit in any round after that.

The maps will be based on the region you are in:
West: USA West, auto, seq, no spoils, chained, sunny
Midwest: USA Great Lakes, same settings
East: USA New England, same settings
South: USA Southeast, same settings
The Final Four and Championship will be on the USA map with the same settings.

The bracket: http://www.teamrankings.com/ncaa-tournament/ncaa-printable-bracket-2010.pdf
List of CC matchups: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AsdNRiwIjPhadFhmVllQaXZtQThIbjJPSUtGS2Nsa3c&hl=en
Championship matchup: Wildcat57 v extraterrestrial

I could not find a bracket that I could edit in the first round, so unless someone else does, this is the best its gonna get.

Feel free to ask questions, good luck!

UCLA isn't gonna make the NCAA tourney unless they win the Pac-10 tourney
Feel free to keep them for now if you want, just know you'll probably have to change after Selection Sunday

[Electricksabers]

5 of these 6 teams are gonna be in, Cincinnati has some serious work to do in the big east tourney, but shaneback judging by your post you already know that

[jrh_cardinal]

just as an update, cinci is definitely out after losing early in the Big East tourney, the other 5 should be easily in. I will be sending a PM to HA and the rest of you to change teams if you want/have to on Sunday night after the brackets are set. I will also post an actual bracket so people can see who is in, thx, jrh
