What's the scoring system?  Bonus for upset picks?
Title: Re: First Annual goEMAW.com Bracket Challenge
Post by: EllToPay on March 09, 2010, 08:54:12 AM
Yahoo! Default - Traditional scoring system with a heavier weighting on later rounds. Works well with Seed Difference bonuses.

Progressive - Slight weighting toward later rounds keeps this game interesting past round one. Try it with Upset Pick bonuses.

Straight - Correct picks are always worth 1 point. No weightings. May the best bracket win!

Points per correct pick by round:
Scoring Type   Yahoo! Default   Progressive   Straight
Round 1                       1                   1                1
Round 2                       2                   2                1
Round 3                       4                   3                 1
Round 4                       8                   4                1
Semis                      16           5                1
Championship              32           6                1

Important Notes
Groups that use bonus points will not display the maximum possible points for each bracket.
Players in a group using custom scoring will also be scored using Yahoo's default scoring for ranking on the Overall Leaderboard.
Upset Pick Bonus – Upset pick bonuses give bonus points for picking lower-seeded teams correctly. You will be awarded the number of points indicated for each upset you correctly predict.

Seed Difference Bonus – Seed difference bonuses give bonus points for picking lower-seeded teams correctly. If you correctly select a lower-seeded team, you will earn a bonus of the difference between the seeds times the bonus multiplier for the round.

For example, if you correctly picked a 10th seeded team over a 6th seed in round two, and round two has a multiplier of 3, you would earn (10 - 6) * 3 = 12 bonus points.

I think we should use the Yahoo default scoring system.

Also, bonus pts for upset picks, _Fan.

That makes sense.

In the past I've still used a system that rewards picking the Final 4 and Champion, but not as much as the yahoo default; I use this for the points for each round: 1-2-4-7-11-16.

And I like using the upset bonus multiplier, but only *1.

The difference in the seeds *1.  So if a 12 beats a 5, you get 7 points, etc. 

Rather than making it *2 or *3, etc.  I think that puts a little too much emphasis on upsets, but I like having some.

I'm in a league where there is a contest to go for the lowest score as well as the top 3 high scores.

While I've got quite a few brackets here and there this year, I've only got one for money.  In that one, I have KSU to win it all.  No way am I going to pick against them and give me even of an inkling of a reason to remotely feel good about a loss.

West Virginia's win moved me up to 3rd overall in the standings.  Thanks, Huggs.  You're the best.

only 4 with their national champion left

chingon
slucat
sys
kstater

If WVU wins, slucat wins.

LOL if Duke loses, I wonder how many groups of 100+ would have only 1 bracket with the NC left going into the final four.

I had my bracket filled out prior to the first game, but didn't know it would lock me out from joining later... doesn't make much sense imo.  Anyways, I see you guys used Yahoo, not sure which way you scored it, but from the default scoring I have 86 of 128 points (46 Correct).  Still have WVU playing in the champ game, but not winning.

Anyone mind posting scores instead of just the rankings?  Thanks!

I know, right?  I totally filled out 2 brackets, but submitted the wrong one.  I submitted the one with all the wrong picks, when I meant to submit my other bracket, the one with all the right picks.  Damn, I feel so stupid!

Exact same thing happened to me.  In my non-submitted bracket, I got a Duke Butler final, not sure who I have winning as it is at my office but I will totally post it late Monday night when I can grab it.

Last year, I only missed 1 pick for the entire tournament.  I ended up winning a little over 20 mil (Plus a date with Jessica Alba, and she totally let me touch her boobies.)  from assorted pools I entered.  I'll see if I still have it saved somewhere...

no one (other than the tards that hated the chingon power index) should be surprised by this. i thought about taking chingons picks and just changing one game cause i figured i'd have around a 40% chance of winning the thing. chingon obviously would've had 60%.
