Two #1 seeds in the championship game meant a lot of good brackets, but Sioux27 came out alone on top having missed just one game outcome in the entire bracket!

WHY ISN'T THE LEADERBOARD UPDATED YET @jimdahl?
(I'm kidding, you know we appreciate all of your efforts around here).
Still out drinking. At the end of the night!

Picks are definitely all over the place with UND out of the mix!
Just two hours left before they lock, if that information makes you want to make a change.

This is always less fun, though more wide open, when UND doesn't make it!

Sorry all about the mid-game downtime!
It turned out to be a memory issue, which required shutting things down briefly to add resources. I’ve significantly increased the capacity, and will continue to keep an eye on things.

SteveP finishes alone in first place!

Although siouxpucks and siouxrube also each only missed 2 picks, more points are given to later rounds.

Picks close when the puck drops tomorrow!
In case you want to bet against the crowd, here's the distribution of picks so far.

If you can't save, you have to reload the page. Sorry about that.

Thanks for the self-moderation from many. I agree, if there's nothing to cite (a police report, newspaper article, etc...), then I think repeating rumors of illegal activity is probably poor form at best, and possibly libel if untrue!

Come on guys. Keep your politics out of our hockey thread. Go Sioux!

Sorry about that. This article goes into some depth on how the entire college hockey statistics world was turned upside down this summer:
https://sports.yahoo.com/mastermind-behind-college-hockey-stats-003000830.html
Basically, the source for our scores for the last 20 years vanished overnight. I'm back up and running with an alternate source, though it will probably take some time to become fully confident in them! Even the big boys have warnings that they're having problems.
This also means I don't have box scores anymore (at least for now).

Sorry, somehow missed this back in the day!
Honestly, with GF Herald paywalled the last few years, I've wondered whether trying to maintain an automated news section is worth it. When I created that section a decade ago, there were something like a dozen blogs covering UND sports, in addition to the Herald. And, all of those sites had "feeds" that could be used to create an automatic list of articles. I'm not sure there's any value left in continuing to aggregate when it's just one or two sources (though leaving up the feed of official UND releases is easy enough).
-
I just completed a version upgrade of the database software, so it's possible that some new features are changing the appearance (as happened above). Let me know if anything looks wrong and I'll get on it!

Congratulations to J.B. for picking UMass and winning it all! Four people actually had 12 correct picks (all but 3 games) but none of them got the champ correct.

A UND loss always shakes things out... of those who have 8 picks correct so far, only farce poobah still has his champ pick alive:

Gee, I'm doing pretty well, except for that one pick...

Hmmm.... I picked the Badgers to win it all. You're all welcome.

There's still 1.8% of you clinging to Notre Dame... time to update that pick!

Looks good! Except at the top it says picks are closed and games start today...
Ah, just a stray label. Fixed it.

Well, the great news is that when I was covid bored last summer, I finally rewrote the bracket app so it could be updated in like 5 minutes instead of the hour it used to take! Of course, that also means this has never been used before, so hopefully it works!

Yeah, among its many changes lately, Twitter decided to effectively cut off third parties from being able to automatically integrate Tweets into other pages. Instagram had made similar changes many years ago, so that social media page hasn't been what it was originally designed to be in many years, but I just never pulled the plug because it still usefully aggregated Tweets. Now that that's not a thing anymore, I'll formally pull the plug on it.
