 INTIAL RULES AND GUIDELINES

• Brackets are $10 per bracket
• Each person is allowed two brackets for a total of $20
• Because of the nature of the world cup there will be two different bracket challenges
• First challenge is the group stage: Pick the order of how the teams will finish. Each correct choice will be one point for a total of 32 points. 
• Example - Group B has England, USA, Wales, and Iran. If I picked 1. England 2. USA 3. Wales 4. Iran, but the group finished 1 England, 2 Iran, 3 USA, 4 Wales, I would get 1 point for guessing England correctly.
