Thats my thinking. I am guessing the first 36 players will all guys from predicted 1, 2, 3, 4, and maybe some 5 seeds. I can see after round 2 is complete us waiting til after selection sunday if we even get through round 2 by then.

I'm thinking just keep going, but if the person on the clock chooses to wait until the brackets are out, fine. I know if it came back to me at the very top of round 2, I'm probably waiting until the brackets because match-ups are huge with the parity.

Okay, well if you're going to wait. Then I'll retract my round 2 pick and be the first to pick tomorrow right after brackets are released. If that is alright with everyone else of course. Then if all goes right and we can all be online tomorrow night for a while we can knock out round 2 and 3 hopefully at least.

Ill be honest. I think its only fair we do the complete 1st RD before brackets. Otherwise, Im sure many people wouldve waited...

^ No shot lol.

I just got back from Florida. I'll send my Paypal money tomorrow when I wake up. No chance I'd make another pick without seeing the brackets.

We'll pick it up after the brackets come out, so birddog, hold off until tonight.

You get 4 hours to make your pick, starting after the show tonight.

From midnight to 8 am, you get 8 hours.

(This is taken from last year's rules): But if someone makes a pick within that timeframe (say 5am), you dont get 8 hourse just cause it was in that frame. You still get the 5 hrs till 10am though. If a pick happens at 2am, the 5 hour limit would only take us to 7am, so you are granted the extra time till 9am, but not longer. Basically, if your pick falls at night, you have till 9am to make it.

Same rules as last year and we had less of RD 1 done and still got 7 rounds complete I think. Also, youre the only one who DIDNT make their own pick RD 1 cause you werent here...

Tiger is out. Plumlee is off the board I guess. He just won't be owned by anyone this year.
