Scoring

Point Values

A team will accumulate points based on the round in which each correctly guessed team has won. The chart below lists the point values.

Scoring
Statistic	Points Earned
Round 1 Correct Picks	1 Point (x multiplier)
Round 2 Correct Picks	2 Points (x multiplier)
Round 3 Correct Pick	3 Points (x multiplier)
Round 4 Correct Pick	4 Points (x multiplier)

Multipliers

Multipler points are seed-based, rewarding lower ranked teams moving on in the tournament. For example, if the #4 seed team wins their first round matchup, they earn 1 point x 4 (their seed) to equal 4 points. If the #1 seed wins their first round matchup they earn 1 point x 1 (again, their seed) to equal 1 point. Same system holds true throughout the playoffs. If you pick a #4 seed to win the championship, it is worth 16 points (4 x 4).
