March Model Madness is very simple to participate in.

Simply go to the current round forum, open each thread, and vote for the best model of the two.

Be sure to check out the links to photos and everything so you can make an educated decision.

Also, comment on the match-ups! Feel free to share who you voted for and debate which model is better.

After the Vote-In Round, the field of 64 models will be set. Two at a time, the 64 will be reduced to a single winner over the course of the month!

There are 4 different brackets representing models from 4 different time periods encompassing the history of the site. This creates an even playing field and should produce some awesome results!

Will there be a pdf of a master bracket or something like that once the vote-in rounds are finished?

So, who determines what models are in the vote in round? Did I miss a nomination thread or something?

Automation is my specialty
 

If only I had more space/pieces/time.

The staff determined the brackets, based on unofficial nomination threads that were posted in late February and our personal opinions.

Fun fact: Over the 3 years of this tournament, a #9 seed has beaten a #8 seed in the First Round 10 out of 12 times.

We've reached the Sweet Sixteen! There were quite a few scares and upsets, both minor and major, in the Second Round. And then some blow outs...

Here's the updated bracket. Voting for Sweet Sixteen starts tomorrow.
