the point allotment for this is incredible...
you could have 10 #5 seeds and only have 100pts left over to improve, which eliminates any #1 seed from being picked...
it's nearly impossible to choose any #1 seed and expect to have any resemblance of a decent team...

That's kinda the point though. In order to get some #1/high seeds, you need to offset by also having some lower seed guys. I just filled out my bracket and I have at least 4 guys that are between seeds 6 through 10. That's so I could get some 1, 2's, 3's, etc.
Andegre,
I've done an NCAA pool with some friends the past few years using a similar scoring system, but through Excel. I'm definitely interested in utilizing your site this year but had a few questions:
1.How do I go about inviting more than 25 people?
2. All each person will need to do is set up an account on your site to join?
3. When are the scores going to be updated (conclusion of each round/end of tournament)?
Thanks in advance

On your group (admin) page, there's a line to "invite more participants". It's essentially unlimited, invite as many as you want, but in sets of 25.
Yes, just create an account and they are ready to go.
Match results will be entered as soon as possible. Unfortunately I have plans Saturday night so may not get the finals entered until Sunday.
BUT
Anyone that is a group coordinator can enter match results themselves. I set it up this way so everyone doesn't have to rely on me. As long as you understand the scoring, it should be self explanatory. Winners side win gets 1 placement point, but if the round before that was a bye, then it's 2 placement points, etc.
If you want to email me I can go more in depth, I'm sick of typing this on my phone...

Not arguing that point...but i'm arguing that if you go by the "avg" per weight (100pts), then selecting a #1 seed (Streibler) means that you need to find 2 7 seeds or worse to maintain the 100/pt/wt average required
2 #1s = 400pts
4 #7s = 200pts
leaves you 400 pts for 4 wrestlers,
likewise, if you select a 2 seed, you must match with a 7 or lower to maintain the balance.
you could got big on 3 #1s and throw in the towel on the other 7s weights...worked for PSU
Yeah, someone changed McMullen's weight yesterday. I fixed him, then disabled the editing of weights until after Nationals is over so it doesn't happen again.

I agree, it would have been alot better.
Right now, I am half way done with Big Ten's...125 thru 157 results have been entered. I'll get more done over lunch today.
Needless to say, I was not able to watch ANY wrestling this weekend. Things did not go as planned.
