You're a bad man, Manny. Some of these are easy, but some are damn hard and this is only the first round. Southeast I Region 1) MacBeth 16) adeelsiddiq MacBeth in a walk. 8) GreenVegan76 9) Omega Supreme I like Omega, but I love the Vegan. 5) Oski2005 12) Dreamshake Oski 4) mrpaige 13) Relativist Both these guys are cool, but mrpaige is one of my very favorite posters. 6) SamFisher 11) pgabriel This is a terrible choice to make. Sam by a hair. 3) Band Geek Mobster 14) gr8-1 Also a tie to me, but BGM's AWOL. gr8-1 gets the nod. 7) Trader_Jorge 10) rimrocker You may think I'm joking but this is the hardest one yet. I actually really do like T_J and his posts. But rimrocker's the tops. Plus he's a fireman. 2) Another Brother 15) Space City Too close to call. Abstain. Midwest II Region 1) Behad 16) glynch Love em both. glynch wins d&d battle, behad wins the rest. Abstain. 8) Heath 9) bobrek Not enough information. Abstain. 5) Batman Jones 12) verse This was wicked of you too, Manny. The guy just had his heart broken. I feel like Ashcroft running against the late Mel Carnahan. Gotta go with the superhero. 4) treeman 13) ROXRAN ROXRAN almost got my vote just for cracking me up so hard in the Gore thread, but treeman wins this one. Where's he been, by the way? 6) Puedlfor 11) Smokey Tough one. I'll go with the poodle. 3) codell 14) RocksMillenium They're both very cool, but codell's one of my favorites. He gets it. 7) Isabel 10) Castor27 Castor 2) SamCassell 15) HOOP-T Does Sam still post here? I like em both. Abstain.
How am I not in the first bracket? Haven't I been around long enough to earn that? And now for my random selections: 1) MacBeth W 16) adeelsiddiq 8) GreenVegan76 W 9) Omega Supreme 5) Oski2005 12) Dreamshake W 4) mrpaige W 13) Relativist 6) SamFisher W 11) pgabriel 3) Band Geek Mobster 14) gr8-1 W 7) Trader_Jorge 10) rimrocker W 2) Another Brother W 15) Space City Midwest II Region 1) Behad WW 16) glynch 8) Heath W 9) bobrek 5) Batman Jones W 12) verse 4) treeman 13) ROXRAN W 6) Puedlfor W 11) Smokey 3) codell 14) RocksMillenium W 7) Isabel W 10) Castor27 2) SamCassell 15) HOOP-T W

Some of these were hard, especially when I got to the Oski vs Dreamshake matchup, I was totally stumped. I enjoy both their posts so much. At first I was like, I know Oski personally, so I should vote for him, but then I was like, "yeah, I do know Oski real well, so well that I know he's really an a-hole!" I was about to vote for Dreamshake, but then I realized that I hadn't read a post from Dreamshake in a while. I don't know if he hasn't been around or I just don't pay attention to the GARM with all the crap in there. So, by default, I vote for you Oski, you got lucky... b****. 1) MacBeth 16) adeelsiddiq(don't know you that well, sorry) MacB 8) GreenVegan76 9) Omega Supreme This was a hard one, but since Omega went away for a while, I go for GV76 5) Oski2005(a-hole and a b****) 12) Dreamshake(MIA) Oski, by luck. 4) mrpaige 13) Relativist mrpaige, cause he's reasonable and a film maker. 6) SamFisher 11) pgabriel SF, because I like his posts in the GARM and the D&D 3) Band Geek Mobster 14) gr8-1 BGM is in my OOTP league 7) Trader_Jorge 10) rimrocker rimrocker, no explanations needed. 2) Another Brother 15) Space City AB Midwest II Region 1) Behad 16) glynch Behad 8) Heath 9) bobrek Heath 5) Batman Jones 12) verse BJ, I just wanted to say that. BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ BJ! 4) treeman 13) ROXRAN tree, even though he's an unpatriotic jerk. What's his job again? 6) Puedlfor 11) Smokey Pued 3) codell 14) RocksMillenium Cod 7) Isabel 10) Castor27 Isabel 2) SamCassell 15) HOOP-T SamCassell
