First of all, thanks to Forensic and the Man for allowing me to take charge, to Jack and Kaos for drumming up interest, and to Shlongy for providing the grand prize.
I'll pause while everyone scrolls down to see the prize list.
And we're back.
We're starting this bitch while she's hot, so I hope everyone can stay hard long enough to pump out at least one entry without fucking forfeiting.
First, the rules:
Now, let's meet the contestants:
Addicted
ahumblefool
amontillado
ballare
beeltea
beer-turtle
Brdn_Nkd
Brian_Johns
Desz
EmissionImpossible
frankthebear
Fungah
gonefiguring
Hornet
icarus1987
Impassive-Digressive
inion_de_trua
Jack McCallum
JoeyG
Kaos-King

Method
Mudwhistle
Orgasmatron
Orphelia
PepsiCoke
Sandmantate
scourge
skrapmetal
Snark
Squirrelly_Girl
Stardamage
whiskey_jack
All contestants must deposit ONE +2 and TWO titles below in a SINGLE review.
These will be the titles for the entire contest. Make them good, because you may or may not get your own shitty title back.
Getting them all upfront will mean everyone starts each round at the same time without some waiting all day for a title they decide not to use anyway.
The contestants will have the option of using their assigned title or using their opponent's title if they think it's better and they want to cry about it.
If anyone hates both titles and wants to make one up for themselves, I'm not going to bitch.
But you're a pussy and I cannot help it if reviewers decide to whip that pussy.
I will post first round matchups with titles on Wednesday, September 24 at noon. Your entries will be due by midnight Sunday, September 28.
All times are ubersite time. Figure that shit out, I ain't explaining it.
First round voting will close at midnight on Friday, October 3. That's a little extra voting time in case no one forfeits and someone actually wants to read every entry. After that, it will settle into a regular schedule. Basically 4 days to write, 3 days to vote.
SO,
Wednesday, September 24th - First Round Matchups Posted (32 entrants)
Sunday, September 28th, Midnight - First Round Entries Due
Friday, October 3rd, Midnight - First Round Voting Ends
Saturday, October 4th - 2nd Round Matchups Posted (16 entrants)
Wednesday, October 8th, Noon - 2nd Round Entries Due
Friday, October 10th, Midnight - 2nd Round Voting Ends
Saturday, October 11th - 3rd Round Matchups Posted (8 entrants)
Wednesday, October 15th, Noon - 3rd Round Entries Due
Friday, October 17th, Midnight - 3rd Round Voting Ends
Saturday, October 18th - 4th Round Matchups Posted (4 entrants)
Wednesday, October 22nd, Noon - 4th Round Entries Due
Friday, October 24th, Midnight, 4th Round Voting Ends
Saturday, October 25th - Final Matchup Posted (2 entrants)
Wednesday, October 29th, Noon, Final Entries Due
Thursday, October 30th, Midnight - Final Voting Ends
Friday, October 31rst - Clusterfuck ends, Gruemaster is Crowned
THE PRIZES
3rd Prize: An all expense paid trip around Sgt. Hartman.
2nd Prize: A pearl necklace from Kaos-King.
Grand Prize: A trip to beautiful Hilton Head Island, SC*, where Shlongy will greet you at the bar of his choice after finger-banging Mrs. Shlongy, and either buy the first round or let you smell his finger.
*Transportation and Lodging not included.
All questions, complaints, and suggestions should be placed on the uberboard.
Thanks, and don't forget to vote in a REAL horror show on November 4th!

If I am assigned one of these titles I'll engrave it on a forty pound block of granite and drop it on Method's head.
Come on, dude. Why sign up if you're just gonna fuck around? Why waste the energy? It doesn't make any sense. You want to be an anarchist, start making pipe bombs in your garage and leave this shit to people who actually have fun taking part.
