So anik came up with a great idea by doing this tournament, but it seemed just to be a little too much work along with the fact of him losing interest due to the voting patterns, so he has given me permission to take over. 

Alright with that being said, this is for who is the BEST tapologist, not merely who you like more. Please try to remain as objective as possible. Who you like more is definitely a factor, but it's only one part of the equation. In the last tournament I'm sorry things like Thiago beating Wolf was just ridiculous. So please try for the most part to cast an objective honest vote. Moderators are up for winning, but site creators are not, also I'm sorry but if you are not at least a black belt you were not eligible, and for seeding I just went with belt level as it seemed the fairest and easiest. With that being said here is the bracket and in the following posts you know the deal, just vote. 



Unlike other GP creators I will be voting on the matchups, including my own. I will post my vote in the OP.

Winner of 22 Tapology Events including Bellator 66 and Strikeforce Event. I just need a UFC win for the Tapolgy Triple Crown. I also have the most points on an event, 1250, (10 perfects 15 of 17 wins) alos hold largest margin of victory which is 250 points which i think will never be broken.

Creator of the Wagering game and good friend Poir420 is my great Spreadsheet creator and manager.

My five goals in the game are to have the most Event Wins, have the most "Real" Perfectos, have the AmeriCan Werewolves win the MVP game, to have fun with Tapology as a whole. Some great people here and of course to be the first to Coral Belt

Winner of the First Tapology Fantasy Basketball League. It was a great battle with Joker and i basically won by one steal after 10 days of back and forth. Best series ever.
