In honor of Dad and the MLB playoffs, let's play an MLB playoff bracket! Scoring will be just like the scoring in most March Madness brackets. 1 point for the first round (divisional series). 2 points for the 2nd round (conference series). 4 points for the World Series. Tiebreakers will be used only as needed. First tiebreaker, select the total number of games played in the World Series only. Second tiebreaker, select the total number of runs scored in the World Series only (this will only be used if the first tiebreaker doesn't decide it). Third tiebreaker, select the total number of hits in the World Series only (again, will only be used if the first two tiebreakers haven't decide a winner). Winner will receive a 3-month supporter status for CCF and a CCF coffee mug like this one: http://www.cafepress.com/coin_community.25253261Anyone is eligble to play, even the mods! If we can get Dad to play, and he wins, we will pick a participating member at random and double their supporter status!Selections, including tiebreakers, must be posted and forum time-stamped by Wednesday 12PM. If you fail to post any tiebreakers, your default will be 0. Good luck and go Rays! Smack talk welcome and may even be rewarded!

Good point - DO NOT EDIT YOUR POSTS!
If you want to make a change, just repost and let me know you are making a change.
As far as the 12/12 on points, I like it! Let me think about what to do for anyone who picks the perfect bracket.

If I go 12/12, the Twins winning the World Series is reward enough.
Win Twins!

Hey scoob, I meant 121 hits, not 68. 68 was from when I copied the example above me. Could you remove that?
