Here's a comparison of the 2 quarter drafts
As noted previously, Dayton has the biggest gap in draft slots. The only other one that is close is Washington State.
8 teams were selected in the exact same draft slot. There's seems to be agreement on how the East falls (other than WSU)
| Seed | East | #1 | #2 | West | #1 | #2 | South | #1 | #2 | Midwest | #1 | #2 |
| 1 | UCONN | 5.02 | 5.02 | North Carolina | 6.07 | 7.04 | Houston | 5.03 | 5.01 | Purdue | 5.01 | 6.07 |

I think I should at least avoid a bloodbath w/r/t how much I end up owing someone. As a new entrant, I was surprised/alarmed at how early and often the lowly seeded teams were selected.
I don't know if any of you have ever done the rotoguru Market Madness contest (it's fun), but I'm sure to be going long on the #4 seed.

It's because of how rapidly they can win you quarters when they win. If a 10 seed makes it to the finals, they won you $262. If a 1 seed makes it, they won you only $26 in contrast.

Oh I get the concept, I just went with a completely different strategy.

Are Uruk and I the big winner as of this minute, 3:36 eastern time on the opening day?

Don't care if it does cost me money. Rooting for one of my Alma maters, go Oakland.
Capella

For sure

In hindsight Oregon is looking like a first round pick. I got super lucky there.

Wow

They went 1.01 in the other draft
Capella

Second year in a row with the last pick where the pick I wanted went right before me and the one I got gets ousted first game. Last year it was UConn.

Not showin' off, not fallin' behind. Right in the fat part of the curve.

I had them as my top team as well.

I think we all were. If any of us liked Clemson then I wouldn't have been fortunate to get them in thr 7th and I wasn't happy about taking them. I wanted North Carolina, but couldn't justify two number 1 seeds.

Valiant effort by Texas A&M to fight back and send it to overtime. Unfortunately, they couldn't close it out. 
Anyway, here's where we stand

Thanks, this is showing different results from what kupcho1 and I have. I love the idea of this and will want to incorporate next year. At this point though, the majority of the games have been played. It would take more time to figure out what's wrong.

The mismatches are tending to come from the team names not matching exactly to the bracket service.
culdeus
Footballguy
I just looked, where is the mismatch? I didn't edit anything and it seems to be identical.
Scoresman
Footballguy
Unless I'm looking at the wrong place, it's showing this.
Uruk Hai / msudaisy26 $2.75
Capella -$7.25
Battersbox $4.75
kupcho1 $0.75
SteelerFan03 -$25.25
Dwayne Hoover -$15.25
Penguin $48.75
Scoresman -$9.25
Checker $0.00

I played around with it a bit yesterday. There is also a data capture function: =importrange("1DyuuT9zPSh9RdzrAF_1bY6HhyuYKckL3E6wr-sGKZTs","Men 2024 Tournament Data!A:Z")
I might try and incorporate it next year using the Winning Team column (H) to automatically populate my spreadsheet. Hell, I might play around with it this week.
The only downside I can see going forward (assuming I can get this to work and I think I can) is that you've got to wait until his data is available to ensure that your team names match up exactly (e.g., Florida Atlantic vs Fla Atlantic vs FAU).
