March Madness: Favorite ASOIAF Character. We Have A Winner!

Recommended Posts

Are all characters eligible (including Dunk and Egg, The Princess and the Queen/Rogue Prince, historical people) or not?

Personally I'd rather stick to the 5 ASOIAF books, but I will not remove any character who gets enough votes.

In other words, any character who gets enough points to rank in the top 32 of their gender will be in the tourney.

I'd like to send a list, but I don't get much computer time on the weekends cause I work. :(

You don;t have to send a full 32. Even a top 10 would be useful for rankings.

Bear is exactly right. A short list can actually have a very big impact - whether your 10 favorites are all"chalk" or if they're Cinderella outsiders.

I have 6 lists now and every one adds a new bunch of characters to the mix. The most recent list had one male character at #6 that had not appeared on any of the 5 previous lists.

VERY IMPORTANT!!



Tie breakers will come into effect tonight.


There will likely be tie breakers not only to determine who will get into the tourney, but what the seeding will be. A tie breaker can be the difference between a very difficult first round matchup and a slightly less difficult one.



These are not written in stone. Please post suggestions and comments. Thanks.



These are listed in the order that they will apply. Soon as a character wins one of the tie breakers - it wins for that placement in the seedings. If there's a tie, we move down to the next tie breaker and so on till there's a decision.



1. most first place votes. That number now appears in parentheses next to the characters name.


2. most lists appeared on. I will put that number in brackets - it's not there yet.


3. highest non-first placement. This only comes into effect if there's a tie for 1st place votes and number of lists appearing.


4. ASOIAF character will advance over THK, TWOIAF, and other non-ASOIAF


5. roll of the dice
