The NCAA Basketball Pool

For several years now, the more courageous members of the MAPSLab (as well as people strange enough to associate with them) have been following the NCAA Division I Basketball Championships. Each player attempts to predict the outcome of the 63 games in the tournament, subject to the following scoring system:

  First round - 1 pt.  Second round - 2 pt.  
Regional semis - 3 pt.  Regional finals - 5 pt.
Championship semis - 8 pt.  Final game - 13 pt.
 
The festivities culminate in a gathering at Chez Dave, involving lots of food, lots of beer, and plenty of good cheer.
