    March to Box Office Madness 2012

    It’s back for a fourth year (and just a little bit late)!

    If you’re a fan of sports at all, or have ever worked in an office, there’s a good to great chance that you’re aware of the phenomenon that strikes America this time of year. That’s right – it’s March Madness, the 64 (er, 68) team college basketball tournament that drains efficiency from thousands of companies as workers kill their time...

    March to Box Office Madness 2011 Final Results – UPDATE!

    In fact, we have TWO winners!

    I don’t know if my scoring system for this tournament is ingenious or idiotic, but suffice it to say that it’s all in Excel and is dependent on formulas. Makes it great and easy in that I don’t have to manually add anything…but there’s one major flaw in the setup: it’s dependent on everyone copying & pasting and/or using the exact lettering that I have for the...

    March to Box Office Madness 2011 Final Results

    We have a winner! Some six months later, the spring/summer box office season can finally be declared finished, and with it, the March to Box Office Madness 2011 game.

    As usual, it was a tight race all the way down to the wire, as we had four individuals that absolutely crushed this. But it did come down to one winner, and that person did so by scoring a whopping 72 out of a possible 76 points, correctly predicting all but one...

    March to Box Office Madness 2010 Final Results

    We have a winner! Some six months later, the spring/summer box office season can finally be declared finished, and with it, the March to Box Office Madness 2010 game.

    It was a tight race all the way down to the wire, but our winner, with 65 points (out of a possible 76) is Justin G., who topped the “record” for total points (I say “record” because this is only the second year of the game) of 64 points by last...

    March to Box Office Madness 2010 scoring update (through 7/18)

    Though the March to Box Office Madness game technically won’t end until late September, I’m going to be periodically posting updates to the standings.

    We’re at about the halfway point, as 16 matchups (of varying worth) have been decided. The next two weeks, with Salt and Dinner for Schmucks, will put an end to a few more matchups.

    Currently, there are 26 available points (there will be a total of 76 possible...

    March to Box Office Madness 2010 scoring update (through 6/27)

    Though the March to Box Office Madness game technically won’t end until late September, I’m going to be periodically posting updates to the standings. It’s been a couple months since the game started, so I figured now was a good time.

    Though others could be called as decided, only five “matchups” have been outright, no doubt, for sure decided. Those five are (points per win in parenthesees): Toy Story...

    March to Box Office Madness 2010!

    It’s back!

    Due to circumstances beyond my control, there’s a limited window of opportinuty to get in on the game – today is March 23 and all entries must be submitted to be no later than midnight, April 2. The good news is that it shouldn’t take but a few minutes for you to complete the entire process.
