    FIFA World Cup Bracket

    Any interest? I found a site that looks pretty good.
    https://www.runyourpool.com/p/j/cf25...6a860fa2d26f65

    I have a group of guys here interested, so I thought I would pool it all for a nice payday for the lucky guesser.

    There appears to be a $1 fee per pool, but I will cover that, assuming there is enough interest.
    From what I am seeing, the free version doesn't give you as much functionality, and only limits you to 15.

    In. Do I need to pay to play? Appeared to be able to set up a pool with no payment...

    It should bring you to a pre-set TGR pool.
    It may expire if we don't have a bunch sign up quickly.
    Let's wait to see what the interest is, and I will set it ups again. This was a test run to figure it out. The format looks pretty simple. I will let you know when the new pool is set up and get you a new link.
    You don't pay until it is over. I will pay the $1 per pool fee so we get all the features.

    If you wanna give it a test run, I will see if your info shows up.

    Nevermind- looks like you guys are in. I will send the link out to my other local group.

    What price? I was thinking $20 per pool to make it interesting. March Madness is usually $10.

    You all decide.
    Pay Pal, Venmo, snail mail check to the winner, whatever they prefer. Winner sets that up.

    Yup, I see them. You should be able to edit later as well.

    $ doesn't really matter to me qq: so we can do multiple picks, just pay for each? If so maybe $10/ea encourages more participation?

    Let's see how many we get. I am good either way.
    I like the format on this site though. Seems to work pretty well.

    I have been impressed with the format so far. It flows well.
    Once we get over 15 people, you pay, but it seems worth it.
    They haven't asked for my CC digits yet, so that must kick in once we hit close to 15.

    I might be interested in something once the knockout rounds are set in brackets. Group play? Too many variables..
    Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

    I'd like to make some changes to my picks; do I create another entry? I don't see a modify option?

    I don't know that there is that option. That would be like playing March madness starting at the Sweet 16.
    I find it pretty obvious who is making it through to the next round (sorry Africa), but there will for sure be an upset or 3.
    A couple of the groups have 3 solid teams. Those are the tricky ones.

    On mine, there are 3 dots to the far right under "Your Entries"
    Click that, and there is an edit option. That option should be active until Nov 20th.

    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.

    Can't believe club teams in Europe are playing scheduled games this weekend. MU has a Sunday game. Haven't checked but there must be some short turn around times with flights before the WC starts. Bonkers how congested this fall has been for them.

    Thanks FIFA!!

    I am looking forward to the action during my "Slow Season". I hit my numbers around June. Been downhill with my feet off the pedals since August.

    Just a reminder to anyone participating- you will need to enter your knockout stage picks today or tomorrow prior to first game.
    Click on "Make Knockout Stage Picks" under the "Your Picks". Pretty straight forward from there.
