First of all, thank you to bigfan 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 CSFMB March Madness section but I may bump it from time to time.

This will be the fourth annual March Madness tournament.
2009 winner: Dr. Kenneth Noisewater
2010 winner: rogers park bryan
2011 winner: Terry's Peeps

68 players will be chosen by the selection committee(me).
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.

This will be scheduled to start next week, and given that for the first time in history 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. Since I will be in charge of counting the votes, I am also now ineligible to be in it, so congratulations 69th best poster on the board, you made it!

The first four matchups will start next week.

If you feel you may be on the bubble for this then post your way into the tournament. I will be watching.

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.

I choose to do PM voting because of two reasons.
1) Some don't want to make a single post for every contest so they just submit them all at once.
2) This is America.

I've yet to make the field for this. I feel I have had a solid but not spectacular year and deserve
maybe a 14 - play in seed. My RPI ( regular posting index - total posts ) is currently at 59, hence
my proposed seeding. I realize there are some posters better than me with fewer posts. Good luck
to all that make the field. :mrgreen:

I feel so Bruce Weber.

Both, or neither.

PM votes are fine and encouraged. PM's to tell me that I suck are not requested.

No Killer V that must be done via text.

So since 95% of my posts are in the Drinky Thread and wrestling section am I automatically disqualified?
