60/63 on the states.

Puerto Rico probably has more people than I realize.

I had Puerto Rico vs. Mississippi and guessed Mississippi... I was wrong.

Also thought Tennessee would have more than Georgia, figured Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville were enough to counter out Atlanta. Wrong.

Each new game scrambles the cities

The state population version is pretty cool too


The scrambling makes things interesting in the early rounds, but you should know the final four by that point.

Until they stick New York, LA, and Chicago all in the same bracket.

I've seen those, plus Dallas, Houston, Philly, Washington, and even Detroit once in the final 4. ETA: And now Atlanta once as well.

It's frustrating though, because New York keeps winning.

I got a San Antonio vs Orlando matchup in the first round. Nearly the same population. Brutal pairing

61/63 on the states.
59/63 for the cities.

Richmond vs Hartford??? WTF??

And San Francisco includes Oakland which is across the bay and should be its own metro. Alameda County has twice as many people as SF.
