I'm not confident in any teams playing deep besides the 4-5 that have already been depleted.

Yeah that's why I went with Jefferson haha. I was like nope on about 5 guys just cause I can easily only see them playing 1-2 games.

sportchampps says he wants Zach Auguste, Notre Dame (Sorry he texted me this like 15 minutes ago lol).

My spreadsheet should be done. I think I've tested all possibilities and they check out. Only one I can't get accurate is projected points if say, a 12/13 match up in rd 2. Closest formula I can make is that both project at 2 games total and not 1. But, in this case, the 12 would play 3 games based on projections. But that is rare, and all other projections should be accurate.

I have:
-current standings
-projected standings
-current high game (1 per team)
-current high scorer (1 per team)
-projected high scorer (top 15)

All you need to do is keep points accurate/up to date and whether a player is in/out. Everything else will fill in.

If you want a copy, let me know and I can email you one.

EDIT: also if you get it now, you will obviously have to fill in player, team, overall seed and season PPG.

Just playing by the rules.

Should we assume for now on if someone doesn't pick in the 3 hour time frame, that they are in the back of a cop car and we should have compassion and let them pick on their own? Lol

I do think if you get a hold of someone at least, we should give you "best available." The problem is, define what that is? I honestly think he got a very high value player in Pangos. With that said, if someone communicates, but doesn't make a pick, they should at least get best available. If they just don't respond, skip. You can always go back and re-pick if we give them someone...

Still a few guys I like left, but I'm going with Bobby Portis - Arkansas. Figure they should get 2 games then I just hope they beat North Carolina.

I kind of fall in the middle. I hate taking the "fuck him" stance, but if you're able to reach someone on here you gotta do a little better than "give me anyone".

I don't really see it as "fuck him"

We decided 3 hours was the limit, if you don't get it in on time, you can pick when you get back on.

Or else I would just wait 3 hours and not pick every time I'm up and have you guys give me best available.

Sounds good. I might send it Wednesday night before I have the last guys entered. But, it should be almost good by then.

PM me your email. I think I have it but not sure.

Lol compassion because you can't pick in a 3 hour time frame? Sorry, I didn't realize we are to assume someone needs compassion when they can't pick on time.

And why would I give someone compassion for being dumb enough to get pulled over with weed in their car?
