In honor of that lousy waste of a month February being over, I have decided to hold the first-ever Sleuth March Madness Tournament!

The premise is pretty simple. We compile a list of 64 of the game's most recognizable players, seed them into a tournament bracket, and allow Sleuthville to vote for the "best" in each matchup.

Rules for eligibility:
You must be subscribed and over 30 days old
You must PM me with your intent to enter the tournament or to nominate an eligible member for the tournament. If you are nominating someone, you must also be subscribed and older than 30 days.
Entries and nominations should be messaged ASAP. As soon as we get 64, the seeding process will begin and the matchups will be posted.

After the initial bracket is filled, I will post a few matchups here every day. Then, the people involved in those matchups will have an opportunity to say "anything" on this thread that they feel will allow them to advance to the next round of competition. Sleuthville votes will be what decides the winners, and voting information will be coming soon.

The overall winner of this tournament will receive $100,000 sleuth cash.

Please begin sending your nominations and entries to me ASAP, and good luck!

VOTE HELEN!!!

This girl is amazing. The commitment she puts into staying awake in the name of Sleuth puts even me to shame! She keeps me company, and keeps me sane on those long, cold, wet English nights. She's been there when I needed to laugh, cry (in a macho way, of course...), scream or moan. She has helped both me and others with all our problems, and I know I can trust her implicitly. I am proud to be her BFFL :)

She deserves your vote, not because Crunch doesn't (cos he's a swell guy), but because she is so committed to help others, and such a nice person to talk to. So vote for Ms Helen Corning!

*Knows he will now be whipped by Crunch's new monogrammed towel next time he brings it in for cleaning*

so, yeah... VOTE HELEN!!!

Aw shucks... thanks Ara!

Sooo.... VOTE FOR ME!

Why? Cause if you do I WILL give you free popcorn AND free topping. (Please note I did say topping, not real butter, because real butter costs extra.)

And, as if that's not enough...

If you vote for Chelsea she'll have to stop doing evil things to take time to make her post on the boar... oh wait.

umm... okay.

If you LIKE evil, vote for me, cause then she can keep doing evil.
If you DON'T like evil, vote for her, cause then she'll stop... wait. That doesn't work either...

Okay, okay, just VOTE FOR ME and forget about everything I just said. Chelsea Bando? She will continue to do evil things if you like evil things and she will stop if you don't. A vote for me will in no way affect her behaviour. Of course I can't promise she'll either continue or stop, that's really up to her. But vote for me anyway.

YAY!!!

I would also like to add: GO CRUNCHY!!!!

He kicks bum (sometimes literally) and he's really funny.
If you don't vote for him, he can't win the entire competition! Where's the justice in that?

TINUVIEL - TINUVIEL - TINUVIEL

A vote for Tin is...well, it's a vote for Tin! :) What else can I say about the fantabulous Tinuviel, director of al-Qahirah Investigations that is about to break into the top 10 on the agency list (how'd you like me working in THAT plug??)?

Tinuviel is the backbone of Al-Q - our boss, friend, mentor. She is fiercely loyal, intensely goddess-imal and is incredibly dedicated to Sleuth. Through her own personal struggles, she made sure that she was available to us. When her computer crashes, she steals Lulah's to make sure we're okay. When her subscription lapses, she finds someone else's credit card to pay it up (can you believe that she doesn't have her own??)! She is amazingly resourceful.

Tin makes sure our agency maintains high standards with our recruiting process, our role playing and our case solving. As a director, she is first-rate. She is constantly looking for ways to improve our processes and to ratchet up our fun quotient at the same time. I cannot believe the amount of time she dedicates to the game.

Oh, and as I may have mentioned before, she's an EGYPTIAN BELLY DANCING MUSICIAN!!! How many people can say that??

VOTE FOR TINUVIEL - you know you want to! ;)

Just a small point of clarification: Any towel whippings visited by me upon Mr. Carter will be merely delivery of services contracted by him (through his shell company, Red Boy International) months ago, and emphatically NOT the result of my inherent (and occasionally useful) bitterness or propensity to mistake anything white and bigger than a playing card for a full-body bib :P

*please note that here too, topping is free but real butter costs extra*

Miss Violet Parr embarked upon the unseemly task of writing her recommendation letter using sheets of white paper and bottles of purple ink. She thought: "How can someone write a recommendation for Coco Cola...? Where would one begin...? What end can there be to foresee!"

"Ladies & Gentlemen -perhaps even Children at times- of Sleuthville,

I believe that a vote in this context must be a vote for the community, rather than one of pure personal preference. Lady Coco Cola has been a part of this community for a very, very long time. Her effort put in this site has been linked very directly to her many sleepless nights.

Her sheer positivism in welcoming newcomers has been experienced by me, along with others inside and outside of our agency. Once a friend, she will always remain loyal... and to me this agency cannot ask for a better, more loyal or dedicated friend... nor can this town for that matter..."

Miss Parr stopped, held the sheet of paper up in both hands, and then read it out loud. She decided to crumple it up, throw it away, and get a new sheet.
