Anyone interested in an NCAA bracket challenge?

[mrs.jacinthe]

I've created a bracket challenge group for the official NCAA bracket challenge.  PM me with your email if you want in.

Prize: Bragging rights.  Top three also get a mystery package in the mail from me.  

[mrs.jacinthe]

Durrrr, the website for the bracket challenge is:

bracketchallenge.ncaa.com

You can make your bracket and enter it in multiple groups, if you're already doing one for work or whatever.

[mrs.jacinthe]

I should also note: my bracket is completely random, as in, I know absolutely nothing about basketball or the teams. So there's a slim to none chance that I'll make it to the top three.

I did my bracket on espn

I'm mostly a lurker but I'll play if you'll have me (I also know nothing about college basketball).

[mrs.jacinthe]

I'm bumping this - c'mon, ladies - it's a fun challenge and even if you've already got a paper bracket or something, it's easy to do. Don't make me sit on my goodie boxes.

(LOL)

[sierramist03]

Ill do it

[munkii]

I want to play, but my employer and position make this impossible.

I'm filling mine out now. I'm going to send a PM when I'm done.

Sent you a PM.

I will have to set it up at home tonight because it's being dumb on my work computer. Boo.

[katecoop]

i'm IN!

[mrs.jacinthe]

katecoop - I haven't gotten your PM with email yet? Don't forget.

[thewop]

Set up my bracket! Woot!

[thewop]

Nevermind. I guess I didn't get in on time. It says brackets are locked. I set one up and now its gone. Wtf?

[sierramist03]

I love how we all selected different champions lol

[katecoop]

[emoflamingo]

[bunnymendelbaum]

I think so.  Send me that PM and we'll find out.  

[thewop]

mrs.jacinthe does my bracket show up? I did it online last night, and it showed up for a second (I had Florida winning the champ and 139 tiebreaker), then I logged in later, and it was gone saying brackets were locked. It was strange.

[mrs.jacinthe]

I don't see it. Did you remember to save it?

[thewop]

 Yep.  Saved it, and like I said it showed up showing my winner and tie breaker, and when I checked later, there was nothing and it said brackets were locked and I couldn't re-create it. I'm bummed.  Oh well.  You can delete me from the group.   

[mrs.jacinthe]

Egads, wop. I'm sorry. Ugh. Tell you what, since brackets are locked (I didn't know they were going to do this or I'd have posted a hard and fast deadline) ... if you have a bracket elsewhere, keep me updated on your progress and I'll still keep you in the running. How annoying.

[emoflamingo]

I obviously get assistance with my bracket every year because I don't know what the tiebreaker thing is and did not fill it out.

Also... WHO PICKED KU?! WE CANNOT BE FRIENDS.

[thewop]

I can send you the ESPN one I have tomorrow morning (so you don't think I cheat incase I do well ). It's at home, but I can scan it to a PDF and email it to you.

[mrs.jacinthe]

That works for me, thewop.

ANyone else who's still interested (because I think there's still two elimination games left) can either pdf or link me to their bracket. I'll just keep track myself ... dang NCAA.
