The goal is to pick winning teams throughout March Madness. You just need teams to win outright, not against the spread.

First, you can only pick a team once. Period.

You must get your picks in before the first game starts, even if you’re not making a pick in the first game.

On the first Thursday of the tournament, you must pick 2 winners. If both your teams win, you advance to Friday. If one or both of your picks lose, you must pick 4 winners on Friday to advance to Saturday.

If you picked 2 winners on Thursday then you only need to pick 2 winners on Friday to advance to Saturday.

If your picks win on Friday, whether it’s your 2 picks or 4 picks, you advance to Saturday and you only need to pick 1 winner.

If any of your picks lose on Friday, you must pick 5 winners in the Saturday games to advance to Sunday.

If your Saturday picks win, you only need to pick 1 winner on Sunday. If any of your Saturday picks lose, you have one final chance. You must make 6 picks on Sunday to advance to the second week.

Again, you can only pick a team once.

If your Sunday picks win, you only have to pick 1 winner per day for the rest of the tournament.

If you lose, you’re eliminated.

The person that makes it the furthest in the tournament wins the pool.
