TSM Poster Tournament 2009: Last-Day Nomination Space

Recommended Posts

Guest Czecherbear

So it's officially time to start the annual tradition that brings us together, tears us apart, brings us back together again, tears us apart again, and then throws us in a meat grinder where we're reprocessed into chicken nuggets for mass consumption. Or we're just naming 2008's poster of the year, here in 2009. Thanks to early voting, I got a head start on making the list, but here's your last chance to throw in some names. List (up to) ten posters that you want to see in the tournament. It's not necessarily who you want to win, it's simply who you wouldn't mind seeing in the field. You and no one else: pay no mind to who else has been listed. For the purposes of copypasting into my Excel document, I'd prefer a list with no numbers or formatting or anything.

 

So here's the timeline:

This thread will automatically close tomorrow at 7 p.m. Central. Then we're having a Maff chat to watch Secret Life of the American Teenager. Then when that's over, we're counting the votes and setting up the brackets. (The board-specific regions of 2007 are out, and the human-error-prone region assignments of 2008 are out as well, replaced for 2009 with a random permutation generator. You see, I ask for 16 permutations of ABCD, and then based on the seeds, which are... It isn't important. Just forget I said anything. Regions are assigned by Druczliusz, a whimsical elf from Lithuanian folklore.) Then I'll tell you which people, if any, missed the cut. First round starts Tuesday morning.

 

People I got early nominations from:

Dandy, Czech, Ortonsault, Barron, Cyber Mark, Kreese, KKK, Brooklyn Zoo, Smartly Pretty, Twisted Intestine, ViciousFish, gary floyd, Slayer, Dr. Venkman, KOAB, Cheech, DoCock, CanadianGuitarist, NYU

 

If you're not on there, and you thought you nominated people, I have no record of it. Everyone else is welcome to join in.

I have an odd feeling that I won't get as far as last year but Kinetic's shout out is good enough in case I don't make a Cinderella run.

 

I'll nominate alkeiper, CanadianGuitarist, and MilleniumMan831 since I don't think they've gotten shout outs yet.

With Xavier "Ortonsault" Cromartie, it's worth noting that his TSM League winning ways in the WWE.com Fantasy game led to him being interviewed on a WWE.com webshow about his picking prowess. Who else can say that?

My sources tell me that my amazing 2+ month stranglehold on the TSM WWE Fantasy League leaderboard is going to lead to a huge exclusive interview conducted by a leading TSM member*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*leading member may or not be me. I may not actually post this interview. It might just be me carrying on a conversation in my head about how awesome I am.

I made this close at 7 a.m. instead of 7 p.m. Oops! It's just that where I come from, that being America, we don't use that stinkin 24-hour international clock!

Early returns show Fartsauce with an insurmountable lead for #1 overall.

I don't want to make a list, because I don't want to leave anyone off I might offend.

 

It's much easier to make a list of posters I dislike.

Yeah most of people are from the Computer/TV board >.<

I didnt think I was going to be nominated. Im shocked.

 

Your posts are usually entertaining, one way or another. You're like the Housemate you don't want to win Big Brother, but you don't want to vote out as it'd make the program pretty boring to watch.

 

EDIT: For the benefit of the GRAMMAR POLICE! OH NOES!

 

Translation for fellow internet spazz masters:
