    Re: How many brackets do you fill out?

    0 this year.



    I'm pulling for every single upset. Whenever I do a bracket, I don't pull for the upsets. I figure it's even more enjoyable this way. Bring on the 16th seed wins!

      I've never filled one out until this year. I only filled out one. Are you supposed to do more? I don't even watch college hoops. That's why I did this. Try and generate some interest. Seems like fun.

      I guess it looks like I have Duke beating Texas A&M in the Championship. We'll see, I guessed or went with "name recognition" lol.

        Just one. I used to do a bunch, but I like not having the conflicts among all of them.

          One. Used the same one for both the OS contest and the pool I am in.

            I was planning on one, but I ended up tweaking my office pool bracket and forgetting to do the same tweaks to my OS one. So... two this year, by accident.

              I filled out 7 this year. 2 for the OS groups. I'm in one pool where you can have 3 entries. 1 for a pool at work. 1 for a pool I've been in since I was a kid in my home town.

              It's all about maximizing chances at cash. For the most part, I stick the same in the first couple of rounds then pick different winners for the tough games in the elite 8 and on.

              I'm a bracket whore, but it doesn't take away from my enjoyment of the games.

                1. I did two one year just because I got bored, but I didn't even pay attention to the one I made second.

                  I made 3 but they are all the same. I just was in 3 different groups(work, school, family) And I tried making everyone one the same but I think with some of the 8-9 seed games I might have mixed a couple up because I was back and forth for a while.

                      Re: How many brackets do you fill out?

                      I always used to fill out two. One with my picks and one with pure chalk. Only because I like to see how much better I would have done if I just stuck with chalk.

                      This year I filled out 8. I only did this because, despite my better judgement, I always end up picking the Zags to win it. So, along with my chalk bracket, I made seven identical brackets aside from the Zags games (one for each round) with the Zags going out in a different round each bracket. Then I looked them all over and decided on one to use in any pools. I'm using the one with the Zags making the Elite Eight.

                        I made one bracket (after scratching several) and entered it here on OS and in a $10 buy in at work.

                            I should have filled out a second in which I had Pitt choking.

                              I fill out one and turn it into 4 different pools that I get in every year.

                                The only purpose of filling out multiple brackets is to pat yourself on the back "OMG I PICKED THE UPSET" type stuff
