Pool Scoring:                
1. You will get full points for any of your correct round robin, team ranking, and playoff winners. 2. As a slight bonus, to keep
us interested, a point for every win for any of your teams in the Championship round, to a max 4 points per team.  
3. Placing a team in the correct playoff, semifinal, or final game, but not winning, still gets you 1/2 points per team.  
4. Placing a team in the wrong playoff game still gets you 1/4 of your assigned points.        
5. Partial points for team rankings. If you rank a team correctly in their group, you get full points as mentioned above.  
If your ranking is 1 place off where they end up, you still score 3/4 of your points. If you're 2 places off, you get 1/2 points;  
and finally, if you are 3 places off, you get 1/4 points. NO POINTS FOR TEAMS THAT DO NOT QUALIFY for the Champ Round.
