2006 Bracket Challenge Rules & Prize Payout

Scoring:

F - 32 Points for each correct Championship game prediction. (1 game)

Tiebreakers: Each participant will pick the total number of points scored in the Championship Game on April 3, 2006. The tiebreaker will be the player who gets closest to the total number of points scored, either higher or lower. If two players are equidistant from the final number of points, the first prize will be divided equally between the two players. Standings will be posted based on total number of points earned by correctly predicting final game results based on wins and losses. There will be no pick from the Monmouth/Hampton 16A/16B game play in game.


Prize Structure:

The final prize structure will be determined by the total amount of paid entries.

(Update)

After consultations with several participants, the prize structure has been changed:
First prize will now be 75% of the total prize pool; 2nd prize will be 25%. There will be no third prize.

Total Entries: 42

(For those of you too lazy to do the math, it is $315 for first and %105 for second.)
