This is a poll. You can either post or vote or both. I'm getting a gauge on whether people still think it's interesting enough to do or not.

For this year, I'll probably change the format up slightly.

I'll create 6 different polls where you can vote for up to 4 people. The top 4 from each will make the next round. That's 24 people.* I'll reserve 8 spots for my discretion from those who don't make it from those polls to make a pool of 32 people and we go from there using the standard 1 vs. 1 format.

In the event of shenanigans, I will choose the entire field of 32 based on data in there so don't go creating 100 mults to vote. Though, it looks like I may have the option to bar newly registered users from the forum which would solve that issue.

Do we feel it's save to hold this in lieu of CoronaVirus?

I think it should be played in empty stadiums

Can we use this to replace the Electoral College as well?

Rick has always done a great job with the tournament, and his "takes" are often hilarious.

Over the past couple years, though, it seems like enthusiasm for the tournament has waned. Board members seem afraid to offend their fellow posters; and as a result, there aren't as many funny exchanges between competitors as there used to be. Voting has also become robotic, often devoid of commentary and seemingly random.

I'll participate if Rick organizes the competition again, but if it continues I hope it will be more spirited than it has been recently.

If it's not fun, what's the point?

I would prefer not to be in it and don't care if you do it or not.

We need a woman in the pool
