Wisconsin has been taken as well by Glen, another football leaguer.

Guys,

I am going to continually update the "team taken list" above so keep checking that when you pick your team.

Question, will you seed and schedule this tourney. What I mean is instead of having a week to play your game like in our league. Will we have Thursday / Friday games and you must play that night?
Sort of like the real tournament.

I know that probably won't go over well, I just thought it would be an interesting approach.

LOL, I only did it to piss you off.

Squid can have Memphis.
Bill, can you take Missouri off the list and put me down for Oklahoma St?

Heh ok

OK guys it looks like the DSP crowd is pretty much in. We have 31 players signed up, which is a great start since we opened this up yesterday.

I'm going to go to OS today and post about the tourney, we'll see how it fills up.

Good lord, Bill. Make sure you regulate who you let in...there's some characters over at OS.

Remember, only 32 teams can partake in a tournament online. That according to the previews.

We can manually do a 64 team tourney, though. If all we have is 32, then we'll roll with that but if there's demand for a full 64, we can just set it up on our own. I dont need the game to keep track of the brackets.

That said, after a quick tour of OS today...I think I'll hold off with the blanket announcement for now.

If there's anyone that you know that you think would like an invite let me know.

I'll take Georgie Tech.

We have 32 teams, FYI

Thread bump

fsquid · Post by **fsquid** » Thu Oct 21, 2004 11:42 am

or if we have 64, you can always use the program to do 2 32 team brackets and then just manually play the championship game.

Well it won't for you if you can't win two games in a row.
