Scoring:

The bracket will be scored using a combination of points for each round plus points for the seed of the team picked. (Points for every win = Round Value + teem seed)

Round Values as follows:
of 64 - 10
of 32 - 12
Sweet 16 - 14
Elite 8 - 16
Final 4 - 18
Finals - 20

For example, if you correctly picked a #12 seeded team to win in the 1st round, you would get 22 points (10 pts for round one win + 12 (seed)).
