1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 for each correct pick in each respective round.
Plus for each correct pick you add that team's seed to your total.
So if you correctly pick a 5 over a 12 in round 1 you get 1 point for the correct pick plus 5 points for the seed for a total of 6 points.
If you correctly pick a 12 over a 5 in round 1 you get 1 point for the correct pick plus 12 points for the seed for a total of 13 points.
These seed bonus points apply in every round too.
I have found this way to be a good balance of getting teams right, particularly the final 4 and champion, as well as rewarding upset picks.
