I think it's a little circumspect that you can do everything else correct, but underestimate, say, Mario vs Smash and overestimate the strength of Skyrim, and torch more points than you could ever possibly make up by predicting every other upset in the contest. You just lost 8+16+16+32 from four wrong picks. Not only do you lose to someone who got singularly those matches correct, but you look terribly next to them, because you're at -72. They could literally miss over a third of rounds 1, 2, and 3 and still come out ahead of you. (That's 24+12+6=42 matches vs your 4.)

I've always taken offense to this with March Madness brackets, too, though, and at least the "chip and a chair" mentality is a tiny pinch more likely there.
