The proudest annual Elite tradition is back! Gird your lions for the

2010 Elite Summer Contest

Since last year's format was such a hit, we're going to be sticking with it... which means this season's Contest bracket will once again be decided by YOU. Your nominations will determine both who makes the final cut and what seeding/position they earn within the bracket, so choose wisely.

How To Nom
* pick out the 10 Eliters you would most like to see make the field this year
* all of our former Champs already have a place reserved, so do NOT use a nom on them (as a reminder, that's Snap, Ngamer, Clark, Shade, Boss, Wouter, and Infil)
* you may not nominate yourself

Any method of submitting your choices will be just fine.

+ Nom through the Boards - Click "More" over on the left and then "Message Me" to send a private message to Ngamer64
+ Nom through E-mail - Send your choices to ngamer@gmail.com
+ Nom through AIM - IM your 10 Eliters over to ImNgamer
+ Nom through facebook - Submit your picks in a private message to Jon Bearder

Nominations will remain open until midnight on Thursday, May 27th, so you have a little more than a week to make your decision.

Need a little help coming up with a full list? As a refresher, here are the bios of everyone who has made a Contest since 2005:

OR, here's every bracket since the first one way back in 2003, if you'd like an even better perspective:

But keep in mind that you're also free to nominate a different Eliter who is either new or just hasn't ever made a Contest before- it's entirely up to you!

Happy nomming, and here's looking forward to another fun Summer!

EDIT: Awwwww cute little rabit ^

Please stop mispelling my name like Rutzo, Rutzu, or Rutzuo. It's like you do it on purpose. It's an insult. Nice idea nominating Emily

Her times is submitted, so she's an elite afterall.

Yeah, lying about several WRs, and keeping peoples tapes and refusing to capture their stuff for bogus reasons, that is the epitome of awesomeness!

GO KIRKNESS!

I just thought I'd mention that we do plan on bringing back the DK and Comet Show this year. Hopefully I won't have computer issues this summer so we can do episodes more regularly! In fact, I'm hoping we can put together an episode shortly after the bracket is released so we can preview the contest.

Like last year, we'll be looking for guests to participate in the show. So if you're interested in doing the show, let Comet, Ngamer, or myself know!
