At the end of the Round Robin, the top 3 teams from Pool A and Pool B advance to the Playoffs.        
Page 1/2 Qualifier Games: 1st and 2nd place A teams vs 2nd and 1st place B teams! Winners advance to 1/2 Page Playoff!  
Page 3/4 Qualifier Games: 3rd place A and B teams play losers of 1/2 Playoff Qualifier games! Winners go to 3 v 4 Playoff,  
losers are OUT! And from here on we have a standard Page Playoff to end the tournament.        
(Full instructions on Page 2)              
                   
INSTRUCTIONS: Select the winner for every round robin game by putting each winning team name in the "WINNER" column.  
Pick the 1st and 2nd place A and B pool teams to play in the 1/2 Qualifier games above, and choose the winners.      
Pick the 3rd place A & B pool teams to play the losers of the 1/2 Qualifier games above, and choose those winners.    
And pick the teams you think you will play in the two Page playoff, Semifinal, and Final games, and choose those winners.  
At the end of the Round Robin, the top 3 teams from Pool A and Pool B advance to the Playoffs. Same as last year.  BUT:  
1/2 Qualifier Games: 1st and 2nd place A teams play the 2nd and 1st place B teams! Winners advance to 1/2 Page Playoff!  
3/4 Qualifier Games: 3rd place A and B teams play the LOSERS of the 1/2 Qualifier games! Winners of these go to 3 v 4 Playoff;  
losers are OUT! And from here, the rest play a standard Page Playoff to end the tournament: First, the 1 vs 2 and 3 vs 4 playoffs.  
Winner of 1vs2 goes to final; loser meets winner of 3vs4 in semifinal. Semi winner goes to final; Losers of 3vs4 and semi are OUT!  
Finally, apply the "Available Points" to every one of your picks, including team rankings, using each number only once.  
Points this time go from 1 to 32, then 35 and 40. Just a bit of a bonus for your top 2 games!

Pool Scoring:                
1. You of course get full points for correctly picking any round robin, qualifier, page playoff, and final winners.      
2. 1/2 Page Qualifier games: Your picks here are interchangeable. If you pick any winners in any order, you get your full points.  
And if you place any team in either qualifier game, and they don't win, you still get half points for that.        
3. 3/4 Page Qualifier games: Same as 1/2 qualifiers, full or half points, interchangeable.        
4. Page Playoff games: These are different. You must place a team in the exact page playoff game to get full or half points.  
But if you place a team in a wrong page playoff game, you still get 1/4 points for that.        
5. Semifinal and final games: These are strictly full points for correct winner, half points for teams in correct game.    
No quarter points, no interchangeable.
