Post "Submit your Bracket Competition-TODAY!" by "Cassie Tremblay" from patreon

Bill Maurer

Happy to say I picked 7 out of the great 8 !!! The rest ..... not so much

🚩

That's pretty neat. I wish I had the money to buy a zoo

John Mulbury

We Bought a Zoo.

Clay F

I saw The Book of Eli in the theater when released. I give it 6/10

MikeLL

I think the films left are amazing. I have seen all of them except for The Book of Eli.

Clarence Newman

I just checked again, Cole, and I am re-confused. While there are red strikeouts in the round of 32, ALL of the strikeouts in the round of 64 are in grey. No reds at all. I must've chosen St John's too, though, because I mostly went for the lower seeds. I KNOW I chose Clemson! No big deal. I trust that my placing is kosher.

Cole Jennett

Your final 4 are still intact, if they keep winning you can still win. I already lost one when St Johns lost

Richard Maurer

Working with the movies that are left my ideal final four would be - Blazing Saddles, The Maltese Falcon, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and Watchmen* * - Godzilla or Kong would be my pick for this spot but Cassie has been hinting she may be planning to watch these anyway. And there are other movies on this side of the final four I wouldn’t mind either.

Clarence Newman

Ah, ok. But hey. 150th out of 310? I’ve never had it so good!

Richard Maurer

Movie suggestions I assume you’re talking about (this comment section being about basketball, mostly)

Dan M

😂😂😂 I’ll get there eventually

Dan M

I’m just really curious as to what your 5 suggestions for Cassie would be. Well, four of them anyway.

Cole Jennett

Still waiting for you to get on discord Dan! If I can be Commissioner Cole, you can be Discord Dan😉

Cole Jennett

If you got them right they would appear in green for the following round. If they are crossed out in red, they lost. You definitely did not have all 32 correct in the first round, or you’d be even higher in the standings, lol. As it stands, you are doing well though

Richard Maurer

Thanks! My imagination will take me far ;-)

Dan M

My picks were 50% based on ranking and 50% based on the movies I wanted to make it to the Final Four. And I’m totally tanking right now 😂. I’m just having fun with it.

Dan M

And thank you for putting this together Commissioner Cole! 😊 I’ve got no shot at winning already, but this idea is still a blast.

Dan M

I’m rooting for you, Richard!

Dan M

Man, as lucky as I got during last year’s tournament, I am totally tanking with this year’s tournament. I’ve got no shot at winning, since I picked Kansas to win it all, and they’ve already been eliminated. So now I’m hoping BYU at least makes it to the finals.

Clarence Newman

OK, that makes sense. It must be right, Cole, I just can't figure out the progress. It looks like all my first round selections won (therefore 32 out of 32 picks), but that can't be right. I seem to be the only one mentioning it, so I'm just going to trust that I'm the eejit here.

Cole Jennett

There are 63 total matchups in the tournament, and you had picked 24 of the 32 correctly at that point. (32 in round 1, 16 in round 2, 8 in round 3, 4 in round 4, 2 in round 5, and 1 for the final = 63)

William Brownlee

Your BYU team just made it to the Sweet 16. My Alabama team plays tomorrow. Hope you watched. It was a very close game.

Clarence Newman

Hold on! How come my score is currently 24 correct picks out of 63, when only the first round has been played? Surely that's only 32 games so far and therefore 32 picks?

Uncle Phoenix

Let’s go Maryland.

Uncle Phoenix

UNM beat Marquette; and ChatGPT has no idea what movie Cassie picked for UNM. And Utah St. already lost. Why do I Hope???

Richard Maurer

There’s a link at the bottom of Cassie’s In Case You Missed It post.

bgb1975 (Brian)

Who cares about the teams - Is there an easy way to see a bracket that only shows the elimination/advancement of the accompanying movie titles?

Richard Maurer

I’m winning! Or at least I imagine that I am.

Richard Maurer

You have to pick a score for the championship game as a tie breaker. I missed that too initially.

Anthony Carlson

Look like a lot of our brackets are wrecked!! Oh well, it is March Madness after all!

Cole Jennett

Well we got 310 people in, but 46 of you didn’t save your brackets it looks like. Oh well, there can only be 1 winner anyways! Thanks for trying!

🚩

I skipped it as well. I refuse to create a Yahoo account. Cassie picking from 5 movies I submit wouldve been a dream though.

Chris Thom

I just skipped it. I always skip these brackets. Don't need that extra stress in my life. lol

Shane McCallion

Watch THE GORGE with your sister!

Richard Maurer

BASEketball and Team America both have the South Park Guys - Trey Parker and Matt Stone - in common. They acted in BASEketball and created Team America.

Catherine LW

I don’t even know what I’m doing with this. 😂

Cole Jennett

You are there Mark

Robert Jewell

I agree, Yoda, although making a sort of odd treasure hunt via game winners determining the result is like a lottery whether one knows the game or not, but even that mechanism seemed impossible to navigate; however,Cassie's enthusiasm for engaging everyone is hard to resist since she is so bright and engaging. I just feel disappointed I couldn't figure it out and bring some attention to 5 films I think she'd really enjoy.

Mark Vaderr

I don't know if my bracket has been added since I do not see myself on the list of group members.

🚩

It was nice of AOL to mail coasters.

Anthony Carlson

@YodatheHobbit Yes.

Chris Thom

I think it's a chocolate drink with a rabbit mascot.

Chris Thom

Fearus of Vladus U didn't make the tournament this year.

JarHead0351

yea - not into this stuff - what ever she picks, I will watch it if I like the movie or I am interested in it or won't if I am not - much more simple way for me - but thanks for you to care .. Semper Fi

JRCortez

Yahoo? What’s that? 🤔🤔

YodatheHobbit

Does tourney mean tournament?

YodatheHobbit

Honestly, just asking everyone to submit five films and picking those names at random seems a lot less complicated than asking each of them to pick sports teams when some might have no idea who any of them are or which ones are good at the sport(night wanna research them), and people need to learn how a bracket works when some have never taken part in one, understand how to input them their choices into the Yahoo website, etc. It kind of feels like completing a scavenger hunt in order to win free candy. I don't even remember how a scavenger hunt works, lol.

Chris Thom

Average points scored in the Final Four last games is 136. Since 2010 up. So like 70-66.

Chris Thom

That's a good idea.

Chris Thom

I guess I do see the news articles time to time. Didn't know they still did E-mail though. Any idea if America Online is anything now? I remember AIM being big time there for a while.

Stephen Dias

I just picked the movies I wanted to watch.

YodatheHobbit

Wait.... do I still have a Yahoo account? Update: No [clicks bracket dots at random because don't care about or follow any sports]

Mojo One Thousand

For anyone thinking they don't know enough and are on the fence... From my experience you don't need to know anything. I did very well last year and I don't know anything about US college basketball, outside of March Madness being a thing. Being on the other side of the world, that can happen. So, you never know your luck in the big city... better to have chance than none at all. There's always the pick option as well.

Arturo

I don't get it? I don't know this basketball teams or watch sports, don't have cable, don't live in USA. Philip do not want Cassie to watch BASEketball and Richard wants her to watch Team America instead, the puppet movie? Would it have been better if I just said " Let's go sportball! " ?

Jason Henderson

Great idea !!!🍿 So much fun! Everyone wins!! Thank you Cassie 😊!

Dan M

Bracket completed. Nail biting has begun. And of course, I’m second guessing every decision I made 😬. This is going to be FUN!

Luke Godfrey

Given just how little I know about this sport, the teams and how it’s scored, would be hilarious if my bracket won though.

Mojo One Thousand

Speaking from experience, it does work.

Mike Lemon

It's completely chance, nobody really knows what is going to happen. The best odds I heard of someone actually picking a perfect bracket was in the quadrillions (the American version- 15 zeros).

Anthony Carlson

Just got it done. I have MSU, St. John’s, Duke, and Gonzaga making it to the Final Four. Crazy I know.

clutchkman

Now I'm really invested in the tournament.

Luke Godfrey

I have absolutely no idea what I just did, but it says complete. Entering a final score was a challenge though. I do not watch any American sports and therefore do not know how they are scored. It wasn’t until I Googled two teams to find a random score to enter that I realised these were Basketball teams. It’s safe to say, had I know what this was about before I had to create a Yahoo account I wouldn’t have bothered.

Anthony Carlson

Ok.

Cole Jennett

The tourney starts tomorrow morning if you’re in North America, so I wouldn’t wait any longer than I had to.

Anthony Carlson

When’s the deadline today?

Cole Jennett

Almost 200 entrants so far! Don’t forget to hit “Save bracket” I remember quite a few forgot to last year.

bgb1975 (Brian)

Only Cassie could make me follow basketball. Thankful for the "random selection" option. I have Tears of the Sun beating Wind River in the finals.

Robert Jewell

Oh, ok, got it. Thanks, Cole. Finally it makes sense.

Gray

I know nothing about basketball but I click and hope haha

Cole Jennett

I have been playing fantasy sports (football, hockey, baseball,etc) for 25 years on Yahoo. Impressive for you to have avoided it this long.

Cole Jennett

You pick who you think will win each matchup (it’s a total crapshoot really) and if you are lucky enough you will win, and then you will earn the privilege to submit 5 movies to Cassie in which she will choose one to watch. You really overcomplicated it, lol

Canadianant

Only Cassie could make me create a yahoo account

Chris Thom

It's just for basketball. No movies involved.

Chris Thom

Aww that's how old I was when I had a Yahoo account. Good times.

Chris Thom

Feel like Gonzaga always comes in hot outta nowhere. Or they did that one time.

Robert Jewell

As everyone done this? I keep trying to get to some info on how to actually 5 films and I only get as far as the NCAA brackets and there's no place to just add my user name and the films I want to add. Love your channel beyond infinity, but this is a bloody headache and I really have top notch Cassie will love any of these films to enter.

Chris Thom

No clue but I like the name. The Biltmore mansion is really swank and pretty.

Chris Thom

Oh shoot I didn't know that. Actually going to fill it out now. Any idea if that super loud Stephen A. guy from TV covers this?

Chris Thom

Funny all the random memories that popped in looking at that sign up page. Interesting how past things are all connected in a brain web. Seeing Frequency at the theater was one of them.

Clay F

I’ve had that yahoo email for 25 years. Never had any problems. My prominent personal email, but don’t use it that much.

Robert Jewell

I'd have better luck doing laser surgery. Signed up but the site is absent of clear directions. I get to "your bracket is empty" in hopes to fill in 5 movies then go to typewriter symbol which then like 30 empty brackets appear and at that point it's a big WTF?

Philip G.

You don't need to . The majority of ppl who fill out brackets don't even follow the teams . It's for fun .

🚩

Yahoo gets hacked a lot.

Philip G.

Of she watches BASEket ball im ending my 4yr sub.

Philip G.

I came so close last year ! It's my time to shine this year 🏀

MikeLL

Cassie doesn't have to invent a college basketball tracking bracket. We can all have use of the one Yahoo offers for no charge. But it is public and we can all see how we all do, lol.

Clay F

My personal email is a Yahoo email.

Clay F

Did you make all the selections through the Final 4 to the National Champion?

Chris Thom

BOOM

Chris Thom

Frequency coming to mind. lol

Michael G

Here is to a Michigan St, Florida, Arizona, and Tennessee final 4. No idea about any of it, but that is part of the fun of it.

Stuart Biegala

My bracket says 'incomplete', am i missing something?

Chris Thom

Aww just wishing the players have a good time. That's kinda nice.

Chris Thom

Oh dang I didn't know Yahoo accounts was still a thing. Last time I had an account was probably during the filming of that scene from Frequency.

Clay F

Submitted. As usual, I hope I picked the right upsets.

Cole Jennett

You don’t need to be into it to win.

2-Can

The upside is that - if you win - you can submit a list of movies for Cassie to pick from.

Cole Jennett

Should be good to go then

D. T. Nelson

Don't care much about sports (sports movies are a different story). I just looked at what the sports pundits were guessing and used those. Unfortunately the best movies have not been paired with the favored teams. My only hope at Cassie seeing the movies I want is to be lucky enough for my bracket to be accurate or have a lot of underdog teams beat the top contenders.

2-Can

My bracket on the site says it is ‘completed’ - is there something else to do to submit it?

AnotherUnique

Oh this should be fun. I have no idea about sports in general, and being Canadian, if I was to look at sports it would probably be hockey or curling, so basketball? I don't even know how many hoops you need for a touchdown! I used the autofill to generate my guess. LOL

Cole Jennett

Pick more top seeds than bottom and you will have as good a chance as anyone.

Sven S

Thank you. Never heard of these teams. Anyway, the autofiller says Duke wins. So "Go Dukes"!

Dave

Cole set the game up - his comment is correct

TheSingulatarian

Hey, I resemble this remark. I've had the same E-mail account since 1995.

Alberto Gramatges

I selected winner's based on the movies I wanted to advance. So I will prolly get a lot of them wrong, but who cares.

Milton William Burray

There's a 'random' option toward the top-right which will fill it in, then all you need to do is guess a final score then click save bracket toward the top

Clarence Newman

No worries, Milt. I have used my total lack of knowledge or interest in basketball to scientifically select the winners. My confidence of winning is not high.

JarHead0351

sorry not into basketball but do watch Caitlin Clark when I can..

Wesley Allison

I thought this was a movie bracket. I don't watch sports and have no idea who the teams are, let alone whom I should put in a bracket. Oh, well.

Milton William Burray

I think it's basketball

Milton William Burray

I randomly selected Vanderbilt to win, are they any good?

Milton William Burray

@Clarence, It's some kind of sportsball thing. Toward the top right there's a 'random' option that will fill it in for you

2-Can

Agree, but hoping Cassie confirms before day is out

Cole Jennett

You don’t have to. It’s for fun. I don’t watch college basketball either.

Cole Jennett

You get 1 point for each correct matchup in the 1st round, 2 for the 2nd, 4 in the sweet 16, 8 in the elite 8, 16 in final 4 and 32 if you get the winner. I believe that’s correct anyways. 192 points would be a perfect score

Richard Maurer

Yeah, forget Team America: World Police!

Richard Maurer

You already lost, you just don’t know it yet.

Above Average Dave

We had an office manager at one place I worked who knew nothing about basketball but picked based on the astrological signs of the head coaches and won a $1,150 pool first place.

Cole Jennett

Neither do I and I got 2nd last year. It’s a total crapshoot. Worth a shot!

Arturo

Let's go BASEketball (1998) !!!

2-Can

In most office pools, the secretary who picks teams based on their mascot/nickname/colors usually wins.

Happy Hanukkah

I *love* Instinct! Especially, appropriately enough, It's Gonna Be Me! :-P :-P :-P

Alex Gorell

Idk anything about basketball or March madness. I just hope everyone has a fun time. 🤣

Richard Maurer

I went on instinct, and my instincts never fail me. You all should just erase your brackets and quit now!!!! Save yourself the embarrassment!

2-Can

How are you scoring each round - eg, does each round award more points for a correct prediction of the winner? Vegas wants to know

Alex Anderson

Not everybody watches sports.

JohnnyUtah

Submitted and JohnnyUtah is winning it all!!! Time for the color of money!

Clarence Newman

Done!

Dean Holt

Ok I’ve got it now thanks, so just picking who I think will win each game. I wasn’t sure if it was that, doing our own draws to the tournament (which I didn’t know how you would work that out) or it had something to do with the films attached to the teams.

Sven S

Are this Sport Teams? And if so, what Sport or League?

Adam Doyle

Got it to work, using a brand new account. Not sure why my existing account wouldn't let me check/add the DOB.

Clarence Newman

Got it, ta

Cassie

hmmm when you put in birthday care you changing the year as well?

Cassie

for this one, nothing to do with the movies, just trying to get the closest bracket to what actually happens

Cassie

for this one, nothing to do with the movies that are attached to them, just the teams you think will go all the way

Clarence Newman

I'm with Dean. What are we picking here? The movies we want to win or the teams we think will win?

Dean Holt

Not sure if I’m being dumb here but I don’t get what I’m doing with picking the brackets. I’m I picking which teams I think will get to the final or just picking my favourite films that are attracted to them.

Robert Jewell

Ok, thanks. How does a Yahoo account connect with PiB? I appreciate your time.

Adam Doyle

Anyone else getting "age verification (must be 13) error messages". Any advice on what I am doing wrong, or how to fix?

Clarence Newman

I'm in using my gmail account. It was just the Yahoo setup that didn't work. What are we picking here? The movies we want to win or the teams we think will win?

Cassie

yes, not a yahoo email, just make a yahoo account i believe

Cassie

are you trying to create a new account ?

Cassie

no password to join, just need to make a yahoo account

Cassie

it doesn’t have to be an email, you just create an account, you know like every website makes you do these days. haha

Simon Haynes

Yahoo account? What year is this?!

Adam Doyle

What is the Password to Join!?

Mark White

Do you need to have a Yahoo account?

Clarence Newman

Cassie specifically says above that it has to be a Yahoo account, Milt. Worth a try, I guess.

Milton William Burray

I've got no idea what any of that gobbledygook means, but fortunately there was a random select option and I just had to predict a final score

Jon Johns

BYU all the way!!! 😂

Milton William Burray

Have you tried just signing in with your gmail account?

Robert Jewell

Yahoo account? What the heck is a Yahoo account?

Clarence Newman

It won't let me sign up. Same as Popcorn requests. I go through the process and it tells me I've failed right at the end ("Too many failed attempts" comes up very time, whether I've failed or not). As far as I can see, I'm not doing anything wrong.

Jake McNulty

Thanks everyone

Cole Jennett

There was a separate post yesterday that has the link to the video and results of “the completely different ”Movie Madness” bracket challenge. Reminder, this is only for the actual March Madness tournament, though there is a movie prize at the end for the winner

MikeLL

Look below in the Movie Madness post for the movie linking. This bracket is strictly for picking the teams playing for the national championship.

GomezAddams

Thanks! This should be fun. 😀

Jake McNulty

Which films are attached to which teams again?

MikeLL

Did my bracket yesterday under nudging from the bracket organizer, Cole. I needed the nudging because I am so down on college ball this year. My team, NC State did great last year. Got to the Final Four and gave us War of the Worlds for Cassie to watch in the March Movie Madness thingie. But the three best players from last year graduated, another went abroad to play pro ball, and we got a new set of transfers. NC State did so poorly this year they not only missed the national tourney, they, for the first time ever, did not make the ACC conference tourney because the conference expanded to 18 teams and the bottom three didn't make it in. So season over, they fired the coach that took them to the Final Four last year! Believe that? Fans, and myself, are glad because he had to go. The team didn't do so great last year because of coaching, it was the players. And that is life for a college basketball fan! But I am super excited I have very long odds to submit my five picks to Cassie with this bracket, and even more excited about the movie picks! I want Auburn to win so Cassie can watch Blazing Saddles, but even more I want Houston to take it all because that is my pick in this bracket!!
