Here is my picks! I had the good fortune not to make picks last round. *WHEW* After seeing the horrors of the last round I am unsure I want to post but in the spirit of gamesmanship I will!


Checkmate!!!! (name a format where these guys are a bad choice?)

Big Brotherhood (I like this match up for them)
Shadowpact (I think these guys will get a better draw, and I am continuing my theme of don't vote against Crisis!)
Green Lantern
Emerald Enemies(Right?)
Doom Patrol (Big bodies for the win!)
Horsemen (See above)
Secret Six (The new guy started the fire!)

Huzzah for the only team with an alternate win condition! (*rofl*)

Except for them, the "alternate" win condition is "kick people". ;)

Tis true! In round two's case, they just stomped the Titans! Go Sec6!

Tis true! In round two's case, they just stomped the Titans! Go Sec6!

Yes, my all-the-way champ, Doom Patrol, remains VICTORIOUS!

Unfortunately, I got almost every single other match wrong. Oh, well.

Three questions:

1) Way 2b is gone, right? It's just way 2a now. My picks are listed above.

2) Once the brackets are set, do we get to pick the winner, or was that Way 1?

3) Is there any way for people who don't bet to lose points?

my next picks! (assuming there are more and we dont just revert to way 2a)

Big Brotherhood to beat Checkmate
JLA to beat New Brotherhood
Kree to beat Thunderbolts
Team Superman to beat Green Lantern
