Game details and disclaimers (the fine print):
The game is modeled after and tracks the popular NCAA basketball tournament. Milkweed Madness, it's creator Brad Grimm and the company hosting the online event Grow Milkweed Plants are in no way affiliated with the NCAA. Any similarities between Milkweed Madness and any other popular basketball tournament such as March Madness are just that, similarities. Any and all confusion that Grow Milkweed Plants and the Milkweed Madness brackets are in any way related to anything beyond what is represented on my informational website is conjecture and should be ignored immediately. Milkweed Madness is created as a fun way to give away milkweed seeds to as many as eight (8) lucky individuals and/or organizations. In addition to the altruistic goal of monarch butterfly habitat restoration the intake form will be used to collect your email. Email addresses that are collected will be used according to the Privacy Policy of growimlkweedplants.com Additionally your email will be used to contact you if you win. Web host "Weebly" automatically collects the computers IP Address when submitting the registration form. Your IP address will not be made public at any time.

Registration in tourneyment is OPEN between February 1st and March 9th, 2018. Tournament enrollment/registration CLOSES March 10, 2018 at 00:01 Winners will be announced not before April 2nd but before April 17h. Winners can reasonably expect their seeds to arrive via USPS on or before April 30th 2018. Previous GIVEAWAY winners are encouraged to participate! Complete address will be required before I can send winners the seeds in the mail. Tournament is only open to United States residents or residents of foreign countries who have a valid U.S. postal address. Additional postage may be required if you are a resident of an outlying U.S. territory or reside in Hawaii, Alaska or Puerto Rico. Tournament can and will close when entries reach five hundred and twelve (512). If 512 entries are received before March 10th, 2018 then the tournament will close to new contestants.

Site owner and tournament administrator, Brad Grimm will have one (1) milkweed entry. His entry will not reduce your odds of winning nor will it subtract from the total number of contestants listed above.
