This one was easier.

-Brackets

-Dominion

-Godel's Incompleteness Theorem

-Lego Bricks

-...wait, who's Steven Colbert? Stephen Colbert is a famous comedian, but I have no idea who this guy is. Oh well, he gets my vote anyway.

-Dinosaurs

-Beating Rebuild

-Donald X.

Rough for Donald X to get matched up against Pulsars.  They're both pretty neat.

I'm just glad I beat Chapel. If you're wondering how I did it, it was Remake into Menageries.

I am still pretty interested in what people's favorite attacks are, and have flirted with posting that bracket, but man in the bracket vote between Random Stuff and Dominion Cards, I vote Random Stuff.

You could be losing to Pulsars.

I think we have like 2-3 people left.

It's clearly pronounced /nutellɑ/.

I think that's supposed to be pronounced like "nugget".   But it's clearly aiming for the pun, so either way is probably fine.

The best reason to lynch Haddock is the meltdown we get to witness on the wagon runup. I mean, we should totally wagon him every day just for the lulz.

While the bracket looks fun, I'm more interested in the main event -- who submitted what. I have my guesses completed.

That's where the fun begins. Also, there's what someone submitted which I could not accept. That will be awesome to showcase too.

Tallying votes now. The best part about these brackets is that it gets easier every time I tally.

Side 1

Juicy Burgers x9
Brackets x7

Why are you all even here? Go eat a juicy burger or something.

Bernie Sanders x2
Dominion x14

Dominion must be wearing an asbestos suit, because it did not feel the Bern. Actually, Dominion cannot feel anything at all, because it is an impersonal object, and we all know impersonal objects cannot have any feelings. But I'll tell you, Bernie Sanders sure feels bad about losing, both to this bracket and Clinton.

Godel’s Incompleteness Theorems x6
Chairs x10

It seems that Godel's run will be... incomplete.

Lego Bricks x13
Rosemary x3


Sure, Rosemary is a nice spice, but it cannot spice up your life like nostalgic Lego Bricks.

Side 2

Steven Colbert x8
Zephyr x8

Interesting that Stephen Colbert can't even beat a gentle breeze. I just looked up some of his quotes. He's pretty clever.

Dinosaurs x11
Donkey Kong x5

What killed the Dinosaurs? The Ice Age! However, neither the Ice Age or Arnold Schwarzenegger will be found in Donkey Kong.

Beating Rebuild x8
Nutella x8

What is better, the tastiness of Nutella's chocolate goodness, or the tastiness of your opponent's salty tears when he realizes that he will not win with Rebuild?

Donald X. x7
Pulsars x8

I cannot believe that a living and breathing man with the greatest wit of this century, who's middle name is an integer, who has created one of the greatest games to ever exist, lost to an impersonal, distant, highly magnetized, rotating neutron star that emits a beam of electromagnetic radiation. At least in Donald's place, his most prized game lives on in the world of Bracket Wars. Rest in peace, my old friend. Except I don't really know you at all, so you technically wouldn't be my friend, as much as an acquaintance of the best kind.



We have a number of ties. Beating Rebuild versus Nutella, Steven Colbert is again tied, this time with Zephyr. And if Haddock had voted Donald X., that would have been a third tie as well. You let us all down, Haddock. How could you do this to us!?

Anyways, I will decide the ties in the next post, though a variety of random ways. So stay tuned!
