March Madness Contest Round 2 - Sweet 16
The results are in and are posted in here or in .pdf format here. I want to thank Jon Kolsky for double-checking my numbers.
There were a couple of close match-ups this round. The closest of which was Nina Hollander and Dick Greenberg. After counting and recounting and recounting, Dick edged Nina 31-30.
Despite several participants not submitting articles, we have a full set of contestants for Round 2. The breakdown looks like this:
East
Hannah Willams vs Debbie Gartner
Praful Thakkar vs Margaret Rome
West
Jon Kolsky vs Anna Krutchen
Endre Barath vs Christine Donovan
South
Debbie Reynolds vs George Souto
Silvia Dukes vs Bill Spear
Midwest
Michael Jacobs vs Dick Greenberg
Joe Petrowsky vs Bob Crane
One item that I didn’t note initially was that comments posted after the round ends will not count towards the total. Since posted articles may continue to receive comments days after they are written, there had to be a cutoff.
Also, I want to remind folks that we are tallying only unique comments. Multiple comments by the author in response to comments on his/her blog will only count as one comment towards the total. This is in an effort to promote fairness and not allow an author to pad his/her own score.
This round begins now and ends at 11:59pm PST on 3/14/15.

Good luck everyone!
