The dates for the tourney are now available. Each poll will open at 20:00 GMT and remain open for 48 hours. There will be a 2 day break between rounds to wait for each poll from the previous round to close.
A quick change in competitors. Due to technical difficulties, Daifuuku Anime Blog have had to pull out of the tourney. They have been replaced by Anipages. The updated bracket
Each poll run like this.
Amazing Anime Blog vs Marvelous Manga Blog
Vote for whichever of the two blogs you would prefer to read. As in, if you could only read one or the other, which one would you choose.

And here. We. Go.
These are so amazing and marvelous!
Come on Amazing Anime Blog!
…and we got more excited.
If anyone has time to visit Daifuuku when they’re back up, please do so. It’s sad that they had to pull out from the Tourney due to unfortunate events as a great blog they are ^^
Call me dumb if you wish but my GMT time over here is +10:00 so let’s say my time is 20:00 (24 hour time) or in other words (8:00 pm). What would the time be if it’s just GMT? Is it decrease by 10 hours? or increase by 10 hours?
Let the dorama begin~ Also, FUKHOU DA for Daifuuku. That is pretty sad.
@Tofu, if you are 10+ GMT then it means it will be 6am the next day for you when the polls will open.
You would decrease by 10 hours to get the current GMT time.
don’t worry I worked it out…
My vote goes for Amazing Anime Blog. The team there are real people and very down to earth! They make excellent reviews and always tell anecdotal and funny experiences. That alone gets them my vote.
Knife!
Oh, 20.00 GMT means 3.00 AM for me…(-_-‘)
Sorry if I sounded mean there Sandra and Kyokai. The post didn’t show your comments when I posted that I worked it out myself… :S
Marvelous Manga Blog is the Worst Blog Ever
Thank god for Smart phones during lectures. time to just read BR target other blogs 😉
Everybody wants to be a master.
Everybody wants to show their skills.
Everybody wants to get there faster.
Make their way to the top of the hill.
Each time, you try
You’re gonna get a little bit better
Each step you climb
It’s one more step up the ladder
It’s a whole new world we live in
It’s a whole new way to see
It’s a whole new place, with a brand new attitude
But you still…
‘Gotta catch ’em all!’
And be the best that you can be!
Love you guys ❤
I read some above but just for clarification. Mine is GMT+8 here. So if I should decrease it, does that mean voting will take place at around noon? (20.00 – 8 hours = 12.00)
I don’t see my blog in the contest? Back when I was invited to participate I explicitly thanked you for your invitation and how much I was looking forward to being a part of this. Am I just blind and I missed my URL on the list? What happened? http://ashitanoanime.wordpress.com/
It is there. Blue bracket. If in doubt, use ctrl+f on the dates page
Don’t let that little equation trick you lols You’re time is actually 4am because I’m 2 hours ahead of you ^^
Hopefully this year Scamp can remember that throughout the tourney GMT is NOT the same as his Irish time and no polls will be closed an hour early like it happened last time. We wouldn’t want any more cases where a blogger campaigns for a final surge, but it ends up failing because the tourney staff can’t keep track of the time correctly.
@Baka-Raptor, I’d love to see a post about that. I love what you did to Hanner’s last tourney. That was simply hilarious!
Seriously, why don’t you guys activate threaded commenting?
This is ground control, testing now. Please remain calm.
Cannot tell whether it was already activated and I didn’t notice or you’re actually part of the tourney team and activated it in response to this comment. Which doesn’t really make sense, cause, what could possibly go wrong with multi-level threaded commenting?
P.S. Emphasis on multi-level
Only one tier of threading… oh well, I guess it’s better than nothing.
It’s Traveler not Travelor
Blah blah blah, hype post, hype comments.
Real deal is Daifuuku being forced to pull out. It’s a shame…but hopefully they’ll be blogging by 2014 to compete then. But on the flip side, Anipages looks like a cool blog.
… so where’s the first poll guys? O_O (as if this message, it has been 1 hour and 45 minutes)
Tomorrow. You’ve got your time zones the wrong way around
oh… whoops LOLS
Love the seeds.
In all seriousness, I love the tournament because we get to see not only all of our favorite blogs competing but also new ones rising up to the challenge. It’s been too long, but best of luck to everyone out there.
Sekijitsu first round. Love it.
Tofu, you getting itchy excited?
I’m itching to get this started alright! Considering you DID declare to get a better site layout than Sekijitsu once >;D Let’s see if CSW has what it takes to win Spiral >;D Bring. It. ON!
Can’t wait and see
I can’t wait to win the Jesus Christ bracket and then move on to face Baka-Raptor in the finals, where I will dismantle him with satisfaction.
Why did daifuuku go down? D:
Their site is down and hasn’t been back up since 😦
