First of all, thank you to bigfan, I mean the three wisemen, I mean the two wisemen for once again green lighting this. There will be a section created for it. This will be the only thread for this posted anywhere but the CFMB March Madness section but I may bump it from time to time.

This will be the twelfth annual March Madness tournament.
2009 winner: Dr. Kenneth Noisewater
2010 winner: rogers park bryan
2011 winner: Terry's Peeps
2012 winner: Douchebag
2013 winner: OKC
2014 winner: Darkside
2015 winner: Don Tiny
2016 winner: JORR
2017 winner: Furious Styles
2018 winner: Regular Reader
2019 winner: tommy
2020 winner: Telegram Sam
2021 winner: You?


The general criteria for this will be:
Board history
Performance since last April
Increased importance for these:
Performance since the new year
Performance from now until selection day.


Note: I will be sticking with the 68 team format of years past.

Note 2: Limited attendance will be allowed.

This will be scheduled to start next week(first four games and probably the rest of the first round), and all rounds will be done by PM/posting your vote instead of voting on the poll I'll be spreading it out a little more for the first rounds.

The first round will start Monday, or next Tuesday, or next Wednesday, or next Thursday, or next Friday but definitely by then.

If you feel you may be on the bubble for this then post your way into the tournament. I will be watching. Every year there are people who post in this thread who make it but otherwise wouldn't.

Please, no PMs.

Seeding will be based not only on where they would rank but also to make interesting matchups in the first round.

Good luck to all participants and if you didn't make the tournament this year then post better.

Now the big text.
PLEASE HELP YOUR COMMITTEE BY SUGGESTING DESERVING LOW POST COUNT(less than 10,000) USERS. YOUR SELECTION COMMITEE GETS BORED AND DISTRACTED CREATING THE FIELD WHILE WATCHING BOJACK HORSEMAN AND EVERY YEAR HE FORGETS SOMEONE WHO DESERVES THE HONOR OF LOSING IN THE FIRST ROUND TO ROGERS PARK BRYAN. YOU ARE ALSO FREE TO TELL ME WHO NO LONGER IS WORTHY OF BEING INCLUDED WHO HAS A LOT OF POSTS. OTHERWISE, WAIT UNTIL I POST THE BRACKET AND THEN CALL ME A MORON FOR FORGETTING TO PUT IN OSCARTANGOECHO

Once you win, prepare to get potshots from all the stupid, uncreative, brutish, insensitive, dumb-ass, ignorantly blunt Neanderthals on the board. It's like the idiots become even swarthier, even more Southern European. I intentionally became a worse poster afterwards.

The best part about it is when people canvas for votes. Those are just hilarious. I swear, my best posts came from doing that. And when posters start pulling for other posters. RFDC, FF, TP, and others have been hilarious in doing so. Don Tiny and Brick have written some of the funniest things I have ever read in their general comments.

My suggestions:

1) If you are gonna beg for votes, ya gotta rap. That would be awesome.

2) Regular Americans only in the Final Four.

3) A prize for best board rivalry. We could purchase the complete deluxe Blue-Ray version of Bosom Buddies and give them to the winning pair.

Man, a few board rivalries have made me sad. One this year, and one in 2016. I hate that.

what are you talking about tommy? You're the favorite every year. You're like the North Carolina / Duke of the board during MM.

Why bow out early when you have the best odds at winning.

BRICK - include tommy regardless of what he says.

Former champions are not allowed to opt out. Also, people who have yet to win are not allowed to opt out. Only board owners are allowed to opt out.
