Setting up a game
- Each game requires exactly 4 players to start.
- New games can be created by anyone untill the tournament games start (3/19)
- Players can join any open game until it fills up.
Ranking teams
- The tournament field has 64 teams across 16 seed lines (seeds 1–16).
- Each seed line contains 4 teams, one from each region (South, West, Midwest, East).
- For every seed line, rank the 4 teams from 1st to 4th.
- You must rank all 64 teams before the draft can run.
The draft
- Once all 4 players submit their rankings, the draft runs automatically.
- The draft assigns exactly one team per seed line to each player.
- Assignments favor your highest-ranked choices.
- When players want the same team, a multi-tier tiebreak system determines the winner.
- Every player ends up with 16 teams — one from each seed line.
Scoring
- Your teams earn points every time they win a tournament game.
- Rounds 1–2: An upset win = 1.5 pts · Higher seeded win = 1 pt
- Rounds 3–6: An upset win = 3 pts · Higher seeded win = 2 pts
- The player with the most points when the tournament ends wins.
