It's that time of year again for the NC$$ tournament pool.
 
Here are the rules for this year:
 
This year, there will be 3 pools in one;
one for the foolish, those who want to pick winners of each game,
a second for the more foolish, who want to predict goal differentials
and, new for this year, a third contest (for fools only) that will
will be based on actual scores from each game (I really DO need
to get a life).
 
One entry form will be used for all 3 contests.
Which contests you will be entered into will depend on what
information you enter on the form.
 
Under separate post, I will send the official entry form as well
as the specific rules and scoring for contests 1-3.
 
Required information (all 3 contests):
 
NAME     (an alias is ok for those who are participating in the
         Federal Witness Protection Program)
ADDRESS  (no street address is needed just City, state/province;
         Ed McMahon will NOT be visiting your home to deliver the
         prize if you should win)
E-MAIL address - (so that I may acknowledge receipt of each
         entry and request corrections or additional information if
         needed)
 
Optional information:
School Affiliation - (Only one please; if you send me two,I'll use
      the first one listed)
League Affiliation - (Only one, please)
 
As mentioned before, contest rules are being sent separately, one
for each contest. I apologize for making the rules sound like a legal
document, but I found out last year that there were as many interpretations
of contest rules as there were contestants. If there are any questions
about the rules, please let me know so that I can clear them up and
send out clarifications to all entrants.
 
Also, please send entries as early in the week as possible.
This allows me time to enter the data, acknowledge receipt, check for
missing information and contact you for additional info before the
contest deadline (which, by the way, is 4P.M. on Friday, March 26, 1999 ).
 
When you finish filling out the entry form, please double check it
for logical consistency. Several people mixed up the brackets
last year and chose teams in the later rounds that logically could not
play in the game they were chosen to win. If you choose a winner in a
matchup that cannot occur, then your choice will be wrong (duh!!).
