We&#8217;ve split our field of 64 characters and objects into four divisions: <b>The Silmarillion<\/b>,<b>The Hobbit<\/b>,<b>The Lord of the Rings<\/b> and<b> The Others<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>This is a brand new format for the competition this year &#8211; implemented to encourage interesting match-ups, intriquging final four and ultimately education on the breadth of works from our favorite author, J.R.R. Tolkien.<\/p>\n<p>A note on how the bracket combatants were determined. TheOneRing.net created a document containing all combatants, sub divided into divisions. We asked staff to cast sixteen votes per division, with the votes having a weight of 1-4. Each staffer cast four 4 votes, four 3 votes, four 2 votes and four 1 votes in each division. We then totalled all the votes from each division to determine their rank, and ultimately placed those into our bracket for seeding.<\/p>\n<p>As you can imagine, our staff is diverse and the results were very interesting! What was very exciting when creating the bracket was the realization that we have some amazing and story related match-ups in this first round.<\/p>\n<p>Voting in Round 1 will remain open until March 21st at 10pm ET. At that point, we&#8217;ll calculate the winners and post the next round on March 22nd.
