Excuse me sure- I have the fighting Izzo’s and KSU on the other side of the bracket. If Izzo wins out to the final 4 that’s 49 points for me over the weekend (plus whatever Texas brings me). I’d have to think that has me in decent shape.

I can get to 121 if it’s KSU over texas for all the marbles and Derka could be gone after the elite 8 and still win. It’s funny that one of my teams beating another one of my teams in the sweet 16 is what closed me out. back to back winner Derka- he’s the first guy to win 2 of these… congrats.
March 26, 20232 yr Paid. Congrats! What's the record for highest score in this contest and when all is said and done, will derka hold the record? With all of the upsets in the tourney this year, I assume our total score will be the highest.

March 26, 20232 yr In my other Snake Draft, I currently lead with 155 and a max possible score of 274 if FAU beats UConn. Edited March 26, 20232 yr by Prepuce of Doom
March 27, 20232 yr Me doing the math to see if UCONN can still score 128 points. What do I get for 2nd?

March 31, 20232 yr Just sent mine. I'm apparently a little too good at completely blocking out that a sport even exists after major disappointment. Then I heard discussion of the Final Four starting up on the radio this morning because it's here in Houston so I remembered this thing existed. Edited March 31, 20232 yr by Huckleberry

It’s ok to wait for Monday night and make sure Derka doesn’t die between here and there though, right? I’m not paying my $20 to his estate. No way no how!
March 31, 20232 yr If he dies before Monday, use the $20 to take his mother to a nice dinner at Bari's.

March 31, 20232 yr LOL i just remembered last year when i kept waiting on that final person to pay me out, only for wulaw to eventually realize that i wasn't accounting for myself and my own entry fee. 😂😂😂
April 8, 20232 yr i've been paid by five of y'all, so i believe that means i'm still waiting on two more?

April 11, 20232 yr whew, thanks for the reminder! btw, do either you or @Prepuce of Doom have my final tally? i did pretty well this year and i doubt i'll ever do better, but i at least want to know the number i'm aiming for.
April 11, 20232 yr 233 by my count. For whatever context it provides, I won my other league with 199.
April 11, 20232 yr getting 3 of the final 4 is hard enough; getting there with two 5's and a 9- nah, i can't see that happening again.
