Are we going to have a pick 'em challenge again like last year?

Yes, I can update last year's 8443 lines of code relatively easily, now that it's a well oiled machine.

You can take a look at last year's results here:

What do you all think of the points system? Good to go for 2007?

From my perspective the point system used last year worked well.

Everything on your end was fantastic last year Andy. Thank you!

Andy,

I'd consider cutting the win points to 10, 15, 20 and 25 from their current 10, 20, 30, 50 levels.

Other than that, it is looking great.

Andy,
Any word on the tournament pick 'em? How is it coming along?

I have the Division A contest all ready to go, I think.

You can register for it by going to http://www.laxshopper.com/bracket/2007/ and clicking "Enter the Contest" under Division A.

I will now begin setting up Division B, following by DI.

I went with DG's point recommendations. Now, for each round the total points available will go 120, 80, 50, 30 for a total of 280 possible. This will give wise early round picks more power and less power for the late rounds.

Small error on the B side. Match up 5 vs 12, 5 is Dayton it is listed as Montana.

I now have Division B up and running, sorry PNW, you jumped the gun, no soup for you.

Try again, I believe I have it all a go for Div B now.

NCAA DI still to go.

good work andy...you are the man

The NCAA Division I bracket challenge is also now available for entries.

Now back to my team.

I hope no one is getting too excited about winning this thing. My brother won it last year, beating 364 other entries and won a used jock strap or something. Something to shoot for!!

why does there have to be a prize to have fun competing with other people? Braging rights is all anyone needs.

So you are volunteering a prize then?

Are you asking me if I am volunteering a prize? I'm not the one running the contest, the league, this website or any other part of this. Why would I do it?
