The DU NCAA Pool is back

[Hokie]

I set up the DU NCAA Pool on Yahoo. This is the link: http://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/t1/register/joinprivategroup_assign_team?GID=57368&P=dupool2010&P=dupool2010

If you participated last year you should have received an invitation. The scoring rules are the same as last year. You can enter up to two brackets. If you need the password it is "dupool2010". Good luck!

I will post the standings after each round.

1. Woo-hoo! Thanks!

:toast:

[Hokie]

14. In case you did not know

You can create brackets and finish or change them any time before tipoff of the first game (I think it is just after noon EDT tomorrow.)

[Condem]

2. Just like one bullet.

One bracket. Any more is gutless.

[tigereye]

3. nice, thanks! Maybe I'll do better than last year...

:hi:

[JonLP24]

4. Password doesn't fit, needs fewer characters...

Is the group # 57368? If so I need a different password.

[Hokie]

5. That is the correct number

The password is "dupool2010" without the quotes.

[JonLP24]

6. Wierd

It worked for me this time around. Last time I tried about 3 times but could only get "dupool2" to fit. Oh I just remembered as I'm typing this I have issues with my '0' button where I have to press the button slow and hard. This time around I just copied and pasted what you just posted to me so it hit me that it wasn't because it didn't fit but because me zero button has issues. Thanks. Didn't use the quotation marks either time. :hi:

[joeybee12]

7. Damn! I'm blocked at work!

How dare they make me pick em on my own time!!!!!

[JonLP24]

8. Don't be alarmed

It says I have two brackets but only one is completed and will count. What happened was my battery died when filling out my first bracket so I went through the motions of filling in the password and so it prompted me with questions such as 'Bracket name' and so on. I know you made it ok for two brackets but I'm with Condem on the one bullet thing. :)

[El Supremo]

9. Request

I guess most people here have a Yahoo account name. Could everyone change their nicknames for the pool to their DU Username? Just click on your name and then "change nickname".

If you don't do that then I will be forced to change mine into something unrecognizable so you won't know who made such great picks. :evilgrin:

[MrSlayer]

10. I'm in. For all the good it will do.

I know absolutely nothing about college basketball.

[Condem]

11. Then you'll probably win the fuckin thing, MrSlayer

Like some chick at the track that bets on the colors. She always wins.

[charlie and algernon]

12. I'm in!

[chollybocker]

13. IBTO

In Before Tip Off.

[El Supremo]

15. I entered President Obama's bracket.

He has a bunch of upsets.

[madinmaryland]

16. Do I have to have a Yahoo account to join? If so, then screw it.

I am still trying to get the yahoo crap off my computer from two years ago when I did it.

:mad:

[tridim]

17. Anyone know the name of the ESPN DU group?

[FSogol]

18. I'm in. n/t

[Kingofalldems]

19. So where do you click to actually make your selections?

[El Supremo]

20. You drag the team, not click.

[Condem]

21. Only 10 of us on tournament eve??

Come on you fuckers. We had 25 last year. Are we afraid of failure?

[El Supremo]

26. Something must be wrong

I think that some are in another group. Where's Joeybee?

[El Supremo]

27. I was looking at the top 10, not the whole list. There are 24.

Look here:

[Cursive]

Thanks for setting it up. Good luck everybody!

[FSogol]

23. Kick. Still time to sign up. n/t

[Renew Deal]

24. Will I beat Obama?

I think I did last year. :D

[chollybocker]

28. Obama's bracket is kicking ass so far.

I may not vote for him in 2012. ;)

[Ptah]

25. Go Wildcats!

:blush:

Kentucky, Kansas St. and Villanova!

[FSogol]

29. Only President Obama is ahead of me as of 9:30 pm, Thursday.

Sorry, gotta enjoy it while I can.

[Condem]

[Kingofalldems]

44. Thanks.

[Jimbo S]

46. Congrats!

to mrclean.

I'll take second place, considering where I was after round four. At least I won LynneSin's pool for the second time.
