I have the pool set up and the teams should go in Sunday night. Anyone having played in the last year or two should already be in the pool....just go to pooltracker.com and click on "my pools". The following info is listed for new players to find and enroll to play:
Name of Pool: LakesMadness2013 (this is a public pool...no password required)
Pool ID : 75422
Scoring Method: Progressive Pick'Em....points awarded increase for each round
Tiebreaker : Total points in championship game
New players should go to www.pooltracker.com and click on "join a pool" ....pool name or ID may be used to find our pool. Picks may be made as soon as all teams go in their brackets...you do not have to pick the Tuesday and Wednesday play-in games...it is best to use a screen name other than your e-mail address. If you need assistance, e-mail me from this post or post your question here....There is NO MONEY involved...just good fun.

Got it. Had to email webmaster at pooltracker to get username and password. Somehow did not record them (both the same email addy I used at signup). My password program has been in use for ~10 years, updated encryption etc. Amazing the passwords I have in there.

Hope you get over that crud in a hurry. Just ain't no fun laying around looking at all them purty nurses on your beck and call, is it? Ok, back to reality. Man, this tournament is gonna be right interesting. Bout the time I think I got grip on who's hot and who's not, my pick goes and lays and egg (Indiana was gonna be my No. 1.) Now, ain't sure no more. I think the proverbial dart board might be the way to go.

I tried the dart board last year and it didn't work. Chrystal ball the year before. No good. I'm thinking ouija board or tea leaves this year.
As long as I beat McGill I guess.
Good luck all.

On second thought, I'm gonna print a blank bracket and put it in the cat box. Kinda like a cow chip bingo method.

A few years ago I used a coin toss. Did quite well. But like a dummy, I spent it. Oddly, and I hope it continues this year, I have done pretty good with March Madness. In spite of the fact that I hardly follow bb at all. And the obverse, football which I do follow both pro and ncaa semi-pro, I have not done even remotely well.

BigFoot, did you put that "Bad Idea T-Shirt" picture on the bracket page, to throw off our predictions? I think I will flip nickels

Wow....just noticed that...didn't seem like such a "bad idea"....definitely the potential to throw off picks....
