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!

What the hell, Serges??? Casting couch my ASS! You're a promise-breaker, innocence-taker and a bad, bad man in a creepy white van :P

Now gimme back my Dockers.

*waddles around gimpishly, gracious in totally-deserved defeat*

Who thinks the 'no-trash talking' rule should be waived for the rest of the tourney? I do! I do!

Yeah, about that... I guess this proves the tourney isn't fixed, now doesn't it? No offense to the Biggster, but I had 3 weeks of honeydo list items riding on the Patty taking the proverbial taco here.

Stupid spring cleaning...
