Remember you are voting for the GOAT (greatest of all time) member.

Each match-up will last two (2) days, three (3) days on weekend games. Like "The Worst" tournament, there are multiple match-ups per poll. Only vote for 1, bracket below for your reference.

Monday/Tuesday - 1 vs 8 match-ups
Wednesday/Thursday - 2 vs 7 match-ups
Friday-Sunday - 3 vs 6 match-ups
Monday/Tuesday (5/28) - 4 vs 5 match-ups

Again, if someone is using multiple usernames to vote, their votes will be cancelled out. Mods, please help me track this.

Let the GOAT tournament begin!

These matchups are flawed as i like turtles pointed out a few days ago. Why would COA get the top 8th seed, instead of the 4th 8th seed? Why would I get the 2nd best 8th seed instead of the 3rd best 8th seed? Bracketology fail.

Suck it up. At least there was some statistical back-up to how I formed the brackets, other than personal opinion of people.

His competition, his rules. I think that's how it goes.

There wasn't any empirical data to go by when it comes with picking "the worst."

I suppose. Doesn't mean I can't be like you guys, and give my thoughts.

I will keep this in mind when I vote against you, since you voted against me.

You asked for nominations, which in this case wold be the empirical data. Then you didn't base the tournament off of the nominations. This tournament is based off of reputation. People either like you, or they don't. It doesn't matter who you're up against. You're either going to win, or you aren't.

False, that's called qualitative data.

I wasn't going to vote in this, but just for shits and giggles I voted for the One seeds. I like the feeling of being with front runners or either I like 'bandwagonning' with the favorites.

Don't worry Snot, I'll have my other personality vote for the eight seeds to cancel it out. (kiddin')
