Same here, but this is typical me...start off strong, then plummet.

fricking Georgetown

Rank 235, honestly, a lot better than I thought given that I started like 1-6

11th place....

I normally suck at these things. I like too many underdogs.

I am still in first, but G'Town will hurt me in points.

So far: 13 of 16 games right.

It looks like Purdue is stronger than I thought without their leading scorer. I had not yet seen Siena play. I was going on their past teams. They dont have size this year.

someone please explain

if one or another person has picked the same number of games correctly, how can one or another person have more potential points?

THIS WAS ANSWERED< THANK YOU.

If you had Gtown advancing to the Elite 8 and someone else had them only going to the Sweet 16 and losing there, then they could potentially still earn those Elite 8 pts that you cannot. Thus, their potential remaining points are higher than yours.

Picking correctly at a 74% clip right now. If I stay north of 70% for the tournament, pigs really will fly.

damnit, had Mizzou over Clemson in my printed bracket but on this Yahoo one I accidentally went the other way.

I would be tied for first place right now if I hadn't screwed that up

Hi. I reckon you changed your handle.
Anyway, I have a question.

I observe that me and one other person are co-leaders, by reason of more correctly predicted outcomes.

However, one of the guys who has one more loss than I have, is said by the system to have the POTENTIAL, for winning more points than I can possibly win.

How can that be? All the games at a given level are of equal value and are counted at the same instant for every player.
