Congrats LordRahl

 

Sorry Toro. Next year

 

 

Maybe I'll make it through the first round next time :-)

Incredible tournament. My 1st one and lots of fun. Toro was definitely the heavy favorite going in but looks like he used up his perfect 95's and had nothing left for the final. LordRahl saved his best for the last 3 rounds and finished the final with a flourish (another 90).

 

Thanks BUTM and sckao!!

 

[Wipple]

Congrats and thanks! Good times!!

Another March Madness Tournament concludes with only a few hiccups.

 

Thanks to NostalgicAttic for letting me run this contest.

 

Thanks to sckao for handling the spreadsheets and brackets. It gets smoother each year.

 

Thanks to all 107 contestants. It was fun chatting with you via PM and throwing random emoticons at you.

 

Thanks to thehumantorch for overseeing the prize thread.

 

Congratulations to LordRahl for the win! Many, many strong rounds.

 

Hope this was a fun Tournament for everyone. I tried to make the books as fair and fun as possible. Thought the two repeating rounds (Haunted) was a nice twist.

 

Only eleven more months until the next one!

You run a wonderful grading contest Christian

I'll probably get it regraded and use it in next years seeding round.

It was a great contest and a real blow to be eliminated early but I'm just determined to get even beter at grading.

I had a very good time competing in and subsequently watching the tournament (my first). Much thanks to BlowUpTheMoon and everyone else for making this so fun.
