Scoring
In addition to traditional scoring, we will be employing Seed Differential bonus points. Seed difference bonuses give bonus points for picking lower-seeded teams correctly. If you correctly select a lower-seeded team, you will earn a bonus of the difference between the seeds times the bonus multiplier for the round. For example, if you correctly picked a 10th seeded team over a 6th seed in round two, and round two has a multiplier of 3, you would earn (10 - 6) * 3 = 12 bonus points.
| Round | Correct | Seed Difference Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| Round of 64 | 1 pts | 1 x seed diff |
| Round of 32 | 2 pts | 1 x seed diff |
| Reg. Semis | 4 pts | 1 x seed diff |
| Reg. Finals | 8 pts | 1 x seed diff |
| Semifinals | 16 pts | 1 x seed diff |
| Championship | 32 pts | 1 x seed diff |
