So far we’re ahead of the pace of last year but we shall see how many entries we get Wednesday (we got a record 58 last year). Also, if we top 100 entries, we will likely add a 5th place prize, the first time we’ve added a top prize since we added a 4th place prize in 1998 (Year 4). Of course, we take from the rich, so 1st/2nd/3rd/4th places will be a slightly lower % (but still a good payday).
Remember, if you need to make a small correction to your picks, email us (ncaa(at)hwci.com)… if you need to make bigger corrections, re-submit your bracket (call it YourNickname 2 or YourNickname-Update).
I’m off to Austin so hopefully all will be well.
