    NCAA Thread

    Because time is an issue and there seems to be demand to make the Powder Maggots ESPN bracket group "more interesting", can we get a show of hands for who will be putting their money where there mouth is?

    State your entry name from the ESPN site, confirm you'll settle with Paypal and agree you're in for $20.

    I'll start...

    I'm cool with $20....let's get a show of hands on the amount then move to payment methods. I think we can use firepay, paypal.
    Tippster: It's pretty simple if yo ugo to either www.paypal.com or www.firepay.com they will answer any questions you may have. Just as long as you've got a checking account.

    So if only a few sign up the money game is only between ones entered. Just making it clear for all you punkasses trying to weasel some dough at the last minute, in case I do not destroy all.

    Transfer to whom? With Paypal you'll need at least the e-mail of the person receiving the money. I have a Paypal account already, and now have a Firepay account as well. Will we be settling up after, or will someone host "the pot" and then disburse to the winner?

    i think settle a the end is best...that way just one e-mail gets posted. I have faith maggots will follow through with their words. For simplicity, I agree that Paypal would then be the best method.

    As mushmouth being the one who wanted to play for $$. He has called out a transfer of funds at the end of the Tournament to the winner.

    If you do not pay up be prepared to suffer the wrath of angry maggots.

    I would think that 24 hours would be more than enough time to get the funds transfered.

    I'm in for 20. My suggestion would be not to collect the money up front to avoid additional paypal fees. I'm fine paying up front, but it would just be less money for the winner.
