Entry fee; into the pool. each player signed up will set ”5 Premo Sticks” aside. this is all done on a Trust basis, NOTE;“Pool Manager (UsaHog) will take responsibility for any member who bails out on this pool” Therefore I require each member to give me Name/Address/Phone number contact to be reached. As the rules on Tourney time allow members to change their picks to keep it straight and narrow (fair) for all participants in HogsHerfers2008 Pool. Once You’ve made your picks there will be no changes allowed after the start of tourney play (12 pm EST March 20th). Keeping the same (NO CHANGING) team picks.
Each player if a player decides to make changes to their picks (Prior to the start of Tournament Play 12 pm EST March 20th) that player needs to notify “Pool Manager(s)” of this event and the changes made. (Copy and Paste in an email to myself) so I can update the roster of who has who… although this will also be tracked on the Tourney time web site… I also keep a running “Word Doc” on who has what Per" each round of play... you maintain your own entry cigars. At the end of the Championship Game is when I will send out a mass email as to who won 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th positions. from there I will also list/post who send their cigars to whom.
Premo Sticks… Any Cigar you feel is in Your Top Shelf Category, between a $4.00 and $10.00+ range Before the start of the Initial Season… that is the deadline for all players participating I will do a head count on total members. Everyone will be added to an email group “2008 NCAA Tourney Pool” I will keep everyone up to date on the tourney events as they unfold.. You can also mark this as an option when you sign up…
I have set the pool up to add extra points for the following;

IT IS A MUST THAT YOU ADD YOUR TOTAL SCORE FOR THE FINAL GAME: to reduce the chances of a TIEBREAKER, in the event there is a TIE.. then each positions Tie will split evenly with “Pool Manager” making up the difference on Positions 3 and 4 payouts…
