    youMadness 2011 - Rules & Bracket

    I hope you're all properly hyped, because the contest is starting. The hype is, in fact, real.

    Here are the rules:

    1. There are 32 names, chosen by myself, shiro, and rocl from a longer list to decide on who we deemed to be the best, most well-known, and most liable to have fun with the event. Since we chose the list, I broke them up into four divisions of eight people each, tenuously arranged into four themes. Hopefully I didn't screw it up too much.

    2. For each division, I used this site to randomize the names, and then arranged them 1 vs. 2, 3 vs. 4, etc.

    3. We'll do one pair from each division in a poll with a 24-hour time limit. Most votes wins. For the semi-finals and finals, each poll will be 72 hours instead.

    3a. In the event of a tie, the poll will be re-opened for another 24 hours. If it's still tied after that, I'll flip a coin. I'm not going through and cherry-picking names like I did last year.

    4. Unfortunately I can't prevent General Discussion (or any other area) of posters from voting on our polls, so theirs will count too. This of course means that it will be Miz vs. Blarg in the finals or something.

    5. Winner (though I need to confirm it with Isladar/Sono/whoever) gets spam forum mod privileges, which is of course not a prize at all because you can't mod spam. I'd prefer this be an elected position going forward, with last year's winners (Ryko & Blarg) having their powers stripped unless they win again. Of course, this is not my discretion, just my suggestion.

    5a. If anyone has any prizes they'd like to put up for division/finals winners, send me a PM. We of course had this last year and no one got any of their prizes, so take it for what you will. The onus will be on the winner to collect their prize, though, so don't come to me if one is promised to you.

    6. Have fun with this, cause I certainly have so far.

    7. Stay mad.

    First round polls will go up shortly.
