What might be done (depending on demand) is a pool at the start of the main round, where you can pick the winner of the tourney out of the 16 possible teams.

I would like this.


to encourage this... we might increase the bank's amount on the overall betting.... any other ideas?

I would strongly suspect as soon as the matchups are up, which is next Wednesday.

As far as I'm concerned this thread can be stickied, by the way.

Painstate will do the upper bracket, ill take the lower one.
Just be patient, we need some time to get the things rolling. On the evening predictions should be ready... and you can bet:
there are 2 ways:

  1. we will start a betting thread: you do your bets in this thread, we will edit the first and 2nd post to keep tracking.
  2. you can send us a pm, in this case we will edit the posts as well Wink

I'm not participating, but I have to ask... Why not let people bet on their own games? I can see reasons for it in real life, but not here.

The only caveat is that they'd only be allowed to bet that they're going to win.

It`s to make sure, that our little game has no impact whatever on the tourney itself. Especially as cointoss is a possible option to bet on. Now imagine someone has bet on his own win, and now has to decide, if to go for the safe cointoss or take a high risk shot at winning, that will backfire for sure, if it fails.
