With so many entrants in a pool, and so many possible combinations of things that can happen, it can become difficult to figure out which teams you really need to win as the tournament progresses. That's where our Pool Status page comes in. Our Pool Status page is the best you'll find anywhere. We give you truely useful information, laid out in an elegant "brackets" format, without overloading you with useless stats. It's the page you're going to use the most during the tournament, so it's the page we've worked on the hardest. Our Pool Status page contains the following easy to access features and information:
  • Standings, points and potential points
  • Pick Info - provided for each game, quickly showing who picked which teams; important when trying to figure out which games matter the most to you.
  • Our exclusive "Winning Scenarios" mode - Shows if and how each entrant can win, come in second or third in the pool . (available after the second round)
  • Our exclusive "Must Have Team" feature - alerts you if a certain team MUST make it to a certain round for you to stay in the running. It may not even be a team you picked. (available after the second round of the tournament)
  • Win Analysis - Tells you your current chances of coming in first, second, or third in your office pool. (available after the second round)
  • Full featured Pool Forums - March Madness always makes for lively discussion.
  • All this makes your office pools more fun by keeping everyone interacting, and fully informed of the standings, their chances of winning, and of the games that matter the most to them.

But we're not just about our Status page. We've also got an easy to use pick selection page, and great pool administration features including:
  • Seeded Scoring Options - Add the seed, multiply the seed and Underdog Bonus

  • Simple and LOW "per entry" pricing scheme.
