Hey guys, this is a cross post over from Gambling Discussions section.  I figured it would be better over in this section since it is technically a "forum based game"... so Mods if you feel the need to delete the one over in Gambling Discussion section, then that is fine with me.

Alright guys... You know what time it is...

It's time for...

MONERO MADNESS!!!



Yes, you heard right.  Now is that special time of the year to pretend to your friends that you actually follow college basketball, or know what the f*** a "Gonzaga" is.

As we wait I want to go ahead and see who all is interested in participating in a "March Madness" pool.  For those of you that don't know (I'm sure there are some), it is a single elimination matchup between 64 teams for the national championship in college basketball (NCAA).  If you live in the US, I'm sure you will know what this is... and if you live in the US, I'm sure you are well aware that watching 2-5 games going on at once while at you're at your local bar can be exhausting and boring after a little while...

but not when you got THE MADNESS.

I'm open to ideas, but this is my opinion of how we should run things if we garner some interest. 1) Buy in is 1-2 xmr. I vote 2 xmr. 2) We use ESPN to have a pool set up and have our charts on there to keep track of each game.  3) We use escrow (?) ... I'm fine with going off the honor system, but I can totally understand if people are kind of sketched out being that most people don't know each other or probably don't know me.  If people are interested in getting a trustworthy person, then we can get them to hold the funds.

More ideas to make this better will be well received.  Please post in this thread if you will like to participate and state how much you are willing to put in the pot (1-2 xmr).  I will put your name below:

List of Monebros gone MAD:

1) phishead (floam412)   ---> 2 xmr  PAID
