Important InfoAbout tiebreakers and people who didn't pick them:
I know a lot of people didn't pick tiebreakers because they're either 1- stupid or 2- can't read and people have been asking about being able to add one in now and i have a few thoughts and want to know what other people think
- On one hand, it was clear in the OP that there were tiebreakers involved. I even had it bulleted. There really is no excuse considering it was right there. It was in my original post too so i didn't add it in later or anything. The only things i edited for was to add the fact that there was actual flex on the line donated by Alpine Golfer's Cavalier and Catch22/hazy.
- I do understand that in this kinda format with around 80 entries and only 16 teams (plus half the 1st round matchups had no chance of being upsets so everyone got those right) there were going to be a good amount of people with the same bracket especially since there haven't been any major upsets yet
- Even if all those people did put tiebreakers, if blaze/valhalla win we'd probably have some people with identical tiebreakers
- Allowing people to add tiebreakers now might be considered unfair since they can use what has happened now to possibly adjust what it'd be (some teams are scoring higher and others playing in grind it out games)
These are the options i see and i'll let you guys kinda decide what you want (also, hazy and cav weighing in on this would be nice since it's their flex on the line)
1- People who didn't pick tiebreakers are SOL because it's 100% their fault they didn't put one in and there are no excuses
2- Allow everyone still in the running to pick total points in the title game via PM and i can add all of them to the original post so everyone can see them and if someone happens to do the same tiebreakers i will PM them and ask them to pick a 2nd tiebreaker title game thing (maybe total offensive yards or something like that)
3- ???
What are your thoughts? Do not PM me with any tiebreaker stuff because i won't read it at the moment. If we do allow new tiebreaker entries i'll let you know when to PM meI didn't put any scores in, because I just clicked the link in the OP, and started predicting. As I predicted them, on the actual Bracketmaker site, it said SCORES ARE NOT REQUIRED or something. Why put that in there if it was supposed to be the tiebreaker? Should I have read the OP? Probably. But it was pretty unclear just by going to the bracketmaker site.
I don't really care what happens, because I didn't follow the rules. But I'm not stupid dammit!
