2017 NCAA Pool

[Dan Murfman]

Back for another year. After the headaches of 2015 made some changes and it went smoothly last so I'm ready for another fun tournament. Sticking with the $20 entry fee. And like the last few years on the web site it says no PayPal but anyone here joins feel free to use it and can send me to at dcinct@gmail.com. Other options include Google Wallet, Square Cash or Venmo. And they use the dcinct@gmail.com. Still working on the site but does have the scoring rules for anyone who hasn't played before.

Have you sent out the yearly email? I have a friend, non-member, who has played in this every year and said he hasn't received an email yet (I forwarded him the site, but just wanted to let you know).

I sent out an email today to anyone that was in the pool last year but I did get a bunch of rejected emails saying it was spam.

I love the email confirmation page of the picks, that's extremely helpful.

That was new this year. They ask every year what features we would like and I've sent that request a few times.

It is really great, all the picks in one place and easier to even view, because printing the bracket on one page can be done but it's a little bit of a weird format. It's not a bracket, it's more of a list.

Thanks again for running. By the way, I bought 10 entries but my friend Joel Dovi is doing entries 7 through 10 for me. He will make that known in the notes.

 

[DJnVa]

Just sent entry #2 via Venmo. Now to make some gloriously bad picks that don't overlap too much with my first set of gloriously bad picks.

Just an FYI on printing a bracket. Once the tournament starts and I upload the Player Picks you will be able print or save the bracket in the normal fashion.

 

[TheJodyReedExperience]

In for 2 thru Venmo. They'll probably both win.

 

[deythur]

In for 3 via Venmo. Lets go Duke!

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

In Via Venmo.

 

[DJnVa]

How're the numbers looking?

 

[Dan Murfman]

Looking good. At 190 right now. Last year 254. At this pace should beat it

 

[Deweys New Stance]

Just submitted one entry with payment via PayPal. As always, thanks Dan.

 

[Jeff Van GULLY]

I'm not seeing my 3rd entry listed on the site. I received an email at 11:06 am this morning confirming the picks.

 

[Dan Murfman]

I could've sworn I saw it. I just stepped out for 30 minutes. I'll check when I get back.

 

[DJnVa]

No worries. Forwarded email.

 

[Dan Murfman]

No worries. Forwarded email.

I'll get it in.

 

[DJnVa]

I see it now. Thanks.

And there's always that one person that doesn't understand the tiebreaker. This year it is poor Kelly Dovi, who's combined points for the title game is 6.

 

[tims4wins]

Looks like the standings update in real time, I think that is a new feature this year

 

[DJnVa]

104 folks went with UNCW--as someone that didn't I like that.

 

[Dan Murfman]

Besides DrewDawg sheet there were 11 others that didn't get uploaded. They should be up shortly.

That's because I was on the golf course last year.
