A big thanks to Expressway for taking the time
to submit online brackets for all to see.

I checked today and Expressway was the only one posting
an online bracket
in the A B nation wide and D local

How much time does it take to fill out the on line bracket?

Again Thanks to Expressway for taking the time to do this.

Just to let you know the hardest thing about doing an online bracket is getting sanction numbers for all of the teams. Some teams are still not showing in the system. After that it is kind of a piece of cake for the two and out or three and out. Kind of fun actually especially if you let the system seed them by class and points. Then it takes the burden of teams thinking you set something up for someone special to win off your shoulders although if you look at some of the posts on other boards you still get those comments. We have been seeding brackets this way for the last three or four years. It probably still isn't perfect but it works good enough. The good and bad part is then usually out of town teams play early (didn't hapen with this bracket though). Making sure all of the teams are in the system is the toughests part of all especially early in the season.

Riverstar has been posting brackets online all year as well. Betty is right, the hardest part is getting the sanction numbers from everyone to make sure they are in the system to put the brackets online.

Most of the parks around here have been doing online brackets this year. It makes it much easier when the sanction numbers are available. Most parks have even been doing this for qualifiers as well
