• Greetings! I'm a long-time customer of OfficePool. Love the software. Keep up the good work! My pools run a seed x weight scoring system. Up until now I've ignored the play-in games, but may want to include them this year. My question for you: in OfficePool, how are the First Four teams handled, in terms of seeding? If the teams are seeded as "16s" even if I assign a 1 to the round weight, there's still 64 points in play for four games, which is a LOT and could potentially unbalance my scoring system. My follow-up question is: can I assign fractional weights to that particular round, i.e. a weight of .5 or even .25, if I choose to use the First Four games? Thanks again for all the hard work in developing OfficePool. My best to all of you.

  Thanks for the kind words and encouragement From what I understand, the official First Four games will have matching seeds

For instance, Louisville appears in the FF-1, FF-2, and FF-3 columns, UConn is in FF-2 and FF-3, and Pitt appears in FF-1, FF-2 and FF-4. Is there a bug in the Reports?

    No not a bug. It's actually a feature There is a preference called "Final Four Compact Format on Standings" that
