Exclusive OFFICIAL RipCityTwo March Madness Thread

[PtldPlatypus]

I'm going to create a March Madness group for us all to participate in. No money, just fun. I'll do it via either Yahoo or NCAA.com so that those diametrically opposed to ESPN's existence might participate. Go ahead and create a many brackets as you want. I'll post a link once it's set up.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Ok... going with yahoo.

https://tournament.fantasysports.ya...t/group/54845/invitation?key=68b89a8627a4671a

Please join in and create a bracket or 10.

 

[Strenuus]

Hell yeah! Thank you, platy!

Hell yeah! Thank you, platy!

After games like today's, it's clear that we all should be paying some attention to the college tourney this year.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Just because it looks interesting, I've selected the "fibonacci" scoring system (2-3-5-8-13-21) with upset bonuses (4-3-2-1-1-1), although I can be persuaded to change that if someone feels strongly.

I ended up with chalk for my final four. Lol.

I've paid so little attention to college basketball this year that I'm really just guessing anyway, so I may as well have just done the same.

I never got a code. But I only really watch the women.

You are right, we should have a group for the women's tourney too. Link below; no code needed.

I'm taking Stanford over Uconn in the final.

 

[crandc]

Stanford over UConn sounds good to me. But I think South Carolina will repeat.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

All right, peeps--tourney (really) starts tomorrow. Get in and fill out a bracket. It'll be a much more fun way to spend the next 3 weeks than complaining about Billups' schemes and rotations.

You should click on the link and fill out a bracket to demonstrate your superior knowledge of the game. I'll even send you cookies if you beat me.

Can't we do both?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Can't we do both?

Of course, and I expect nothing less. Just saying it's best not to only do the un-fun one.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I'd really like the main college hoopheads to participate. @JDC, @Fez Forthright, @BonesJones, @TBpup, @MickZagger--get in on this y'all!

 

[crandc]

I have been swamped but I will fill out bracket before the tourney starts. Don't make me cookies. Carrying coals to Newcastle.

 

[Sloth]

Just did mine! Always some upsets first round so that's what I tried to do haha. Sucks picking one when my Heels didn't even make it smh, but anyway.

Snubbed

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Snubbed

Aww, man... now I feel bad!

To be fair, I basically look at you and Torey as one person now...

Either way, glad you're in. Get your other half in there too.

 

[PDXFonz]

I’m only entering 1 bracket to make it fair : )

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I’m only entering 1 bracket to make it fair : )

Personally, I also believe in the single-bracket method, but I didn't want to discourage anyone from playing the way that is most fun for them. But I appreciate you allowing us all the opportunity to play for 2nd place.

However, don't forget to also enter a bracket for the women's tourney.

 

[PDXFonz]

You have roughly 45 minutes to fill out a bracket before they close.
