Well, the deadline to enter is fastly approaching, and it looks like Allen & Ginter is already live! This is going to be the greatest box break battle of all time, and it's great so many of you have signed up! For anyone else who wishes to sign up, you have until tomorrow, Monday July 6th to get in on the action.
Much like with the Turk-Off, when you have this many rules, you need someone impartial to uphold them, and settle any dispute. I am pleased to announce that Mark of the fabulous Mark's Ephemera will be serving as Commissioner for the first ever Gint-A-Cuffs battle.
Mark, my bribe money goes out in the mail tomorrow, please make it count!
Below are the updated scoring rules, and the first "Favorite Players" list. The current roster of contestants can be seen on the sidebar. Once again, if anyone has any scoring questions or concerns, now is the time to voice them. Once the deadline passes, these rules become gospel.
