Misses Cut

Guys I’m out of town and probably won’t have much chance to update til maybe Sunday.

I don't think I picked enough low seeded teams that would pick up one or two early round wins, so I'm probably in trouble. Didn't really think this challenge through as much as I usually do.

Official results- (didn't have enough time to break it all out)

horvie78 smokes the field with a score of 272
da_goat finishes a distant 2nd at 190
stalagna goes third with 188
It was a close race for the 4th and final spot-

the score was 167 to 165

csudak is out




















of the cellar and finishes fourth.



beachhouse needed a few more points but finished last and is now eliminated!

Look for new challenge to be posted up Monday or Tuesday. Hint: it will probably involve March Madness. Okay who am I kidding! It definitely will be a March Madness challenge.

Love to see the official breakdown since it is 2 points lol.

Love to see the official breakdown since it is 2 points lol.

Part I- csudak 127 beachhouse 130
Part IIa- csudak 20 beachhouse 20
Part IIb- csudak 20 beachhouse 15
Part III- zero for either

Final score- csudak 167 beachhouse 165

Challenge will be posted a bit later today
