Confidence Pools add another layer to Buzzr’s tournament experience. Instead of just picking winners, rank how confident you are in each pick.

​
How It Works

  1. Pick winners for each matchup in the round
  2. Assign confidence points — Give your most confident pick the highest points
  3. Score — If your pick wins, you earn the confidence points you assigned
  4. Highest total wins the round

​
Scoring

The more confident you are in a correct pick, the more points you earn. But if your highest-confidence pick loses, you miss out on big points. For example, if there are 8 games in a round:
  • Assign 8 points to your most confident pick
  • Assign 1 point to your least confident pick
  • Each number (1–8) can only be used once

​
Strategy

  • Stack high points on safe picks — Put your highest confidence on the surest things
  • Low points on toss-ups — Save low numbers for games that could go either way
  • Don’t chase upsets with high confidence — A wrong pick at 8 points hurts more than a wrong pick at 1

​
Weekly Scoring

Confidence pools score on a weekly basis during tournaments, with leaderboard rankings updated after each round of games.

​
Earning XP

Each confidence pick earns you 8 XP, regardless of whether your pick is correct. Making picks keeps you engaged and leveling up.
