No problem, and yes it will. =) One of the benefits of the new system is that it takes less work to generate the results.

Or not... I put Ness on my bracket, but when I copy/pasted someone else's format (Because I'm lazy), I must have not changed to Ness. Well, I'm still in the running for the money, and, If I'm lucky, the contest.

I actually expected Ness to win from a pure expectations standpoint, but picked CJ in the Oracle challenge because of risk-aversion. Too much to lose if CJ had won and you picked Ness; that would make finishing in the Top 10 difficult. Whereas you can always recover from a wrong pick that most of the leaderboard also had. And I had Ness in my bracket, so you could see that as diversifying personal payoff.
