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!

To me, Rhiemma Moon (aka the godmother) will always be MY director. She took me in from the streets of New York when I was a hungry, naked, cold, poor babe; and made me feel at home when I joined my first agency, The Closers. I've learned a lot about being a director from her. She is THE most patient person I have ever known. She would listen to all our problems, whether Sleuth-related or not, and would try to solve them with us or help us accept them. In real life she is a fantastic, brave woman who never loses faith, and I am so proud of her!
Vote for the godmother!!!

Many thanks to Lady Jas for nominating me. I'm not sure what I'm the best at other than perhaps being the oldest Sleuther working hard at staying young in mind, body, and spirit.........solving cases and reading detective novels for my mind, plenty of exercise for my body, and karaoke for the spirit. I do a mean Bob Segar and Jerry Lee Lewis. :)
Thanks again to Lady Jas.

ROFLMFAO while Resisting urge to stuff cotton in my cheeks and do a cheesy Marlon Brando imitation. Tinuviel, you have never ceased to bring a bright moment in my day. :)
Bravery? ::chuckles:: Sometimes that's just a euphemism for too stubborn to listen. ::grins:: and sometimes the only reason you walk into that fire is because of the sharp stick jabbing you in the ... uh,... posterior.
And now comes a visual of Marlon Brando in a pink tutu and fairy wings with a gold topped wand chasing Puck through the woods yelling, "Just for the night! Just one night!" Ok. Tonight I take the sleeping pill.

I liked to thank Crextin for the nomination and Derringer for his kind words, but more importantly I think Beef rocks and should get your votes.
As his director what I like best about ole Flaps is his dedication to Shaded Legends, his humor, and his integrety.
So if you want to know where's the Beef, I'll tell you he's in the next round of march madness.

First off let me start by saying that I will no way compare or beat out lil Rach...so congrats to her.
Let me also put my two cents in for just a bit. Please eveyrone, if you are voting or speaking on belhalf of someone, make sure you make the right decision. We should be picking someone who is loyal, dedicated, trusthworthy, honest, plays with fairness, is a true leader, and goes out of their way to help others, and always put others first before themselves. Someone who cares for others. Under my other detective I manage to take a fairly new agency and bring it to the number 5 spot in the NY agencies, something I am very proud of. However it was not just me, it was all of my members worked hard and really put their support up for me completely. We should also be voting for the ones that show outstanding leadership skills and someone who is non judgemental. Someone who, eventhough they may not speak out on the boards, you can still tell these qualities by talking to them. We should be looking for the ones who take the time to get to know their agency members and members outside of their agency and make everyone feel welcome and accepted. This is how I live my life, inside and outside of sleuth, and I hope that everyone that knows me can see that.
These are the things I ask you look for when making your decisions. Again, congratulations to everyone for making it this far, and no matter what you all are winners!
Good luck to everyone!

My two cents for LilRach: She plays the game with integrity, always offering a voice of reason and never speaking rashly or with anger. She is a fantastic director, generous both with her cash :) and with her advice and support. She has had a great deal going on personally this year, and has still managed to be present in the agency on a daily basis. To me she represents the true spirit of the game. With due respect to Lady Jas, who I do not know but can see is a lovely person as well, my vote must go to Lil.
