Welcome to the Flash March Madness Tournament Update thread! This thread will serve as a way to consolidate all tournament statistics in one place. Instead of going through a bunch of different threads (which, lets face it, will get unwieldy soon enough), you can just come here to see who one in a particular day's round of match-ups! This thread will also be home to a daily updated bracket, so be sure to check back often!  |

Winners from March 18th!  Captain Cold won hands-down with 87.5% of the vote. One of the most popular of Flash's Rouges, I am sure that is no surprise to anyone. Also winning decidedly with 93.7% is the Zoom! Will there be any stopping him as the tournament goes on? Zoom's predecessor shares more than just a costume with the Reverse Flash winning 93.7% as well. The big upset of the day will surely be the Owen Mercer/Abra Kadabra face off with Owen narrowly beating Kadabra by one vote! |

Wow, a huge upset already.
Could Owen be our first Cinderella Rogue? ;D

Winners from March 19th!  The voting became closer all around today! Both deemed "phonies" by members of the board, Trickster (Axel Walker) and the Alchemist went head-to-head, but Axel won the round with 70.5%. Who's a phony now? Golden Glider and Rainbow Raider were neck-and-neck all day, but Glider was able to skate ahead winning with a 64.7% Two classics faced off when Heat Wave and Weather Wizard clashed, but it was the Weather Wizard coming ahead with 61.1% of the vote. Finally, it was no contest when Mirror Master (Evan McCulloch) out-thought the Thinker with 93.7& of the vote. |

3 out of 4 ain't bad.
Didn't pick Axel though. Never really warmed to the character at all.

Sorry about the delay in the new polls everyone! I was out later than I expected! The perils of having a social life, I suppose! The new set of polls will be up up until between 11:30-11:50 pm (CST) tomorrow. Since we will be taking a weekend break after tomorrow, this shouldn't cause any further delays. Anyway, on to the important stuff: Winners from March 20th!  Turbine did his best to spin circles around the Pied Piper, but Piper was just too much of classic for the new guy by getting 80% of the vote! Another no-contest was Digger vs. Magenta. The senior Captain Boomerang won by a solid 75%. Cobalt Blue gave a valiant effort, but there is no defeating the insane rage of Gorilla Grodd. He won with 70% of the vote. Finally, the somewhat-fringe villains of Mr. Element and the Thorn had a straight up back-and-forth going, but, in the end, it was the Thorn who was victorious with 55.5% of the vote! |

Wow, Cobalt Blue made a better showing than I expected. I thought it would be another all-against-one landslide.
And I'm strangely pleased to see the Thorn win a round, though judging by the bracket I suspect it won't last long.

Winners from March 21st!  The Top made soup out of the Turtle by getting an outstanding 94.1% of the vote. In the Barry Allen Region, James Jesse and Inertia competed in a much closer battle, but Inertia raced ahead with 55.5% of the vote. Color me surprised with this one. In another no-contest was Sam Scudder dominating Kilg%re with 93.7%. Finally, Dr. Alchemy defeated Savitar by winning 68.7% of the vote. Wally West is surely a fan favorite, but his villains seem to have no chance against the classics! And that completes Round 1. All of the above winners from the past week will continue on to the Sweet 16. We are going to be taking a weekend break, but Round 2 will begin on March 25th (the poll will be up the night before). |

Awww yeah ;D Roscoe's going to get slaughtered by Piper next time, though.
Interesting about the James/Inertia match-up -- I knew James wouldn't win by a landslide, but didn't think Inertia would beat him.

Yeah. I actually thought James would win it in a landslide actually.

Winners from March 25th!  Try as he might, but Axel Walker was no match for the mighty Captain Cold who won with 83.3% of the vote. In the closest battle all day (if not the entire tournament thus far), Golden Glider took on Zoom and was victorious with 52.6% of the vote. She joins her brother in the winner’s circle. It is always tough when two classics face-off, but looks like the Weather Wizard just cannot beat a speedster. The Reverse Flash won with 55.5% of the vote. Finally, in the battle between the next-generation of Rogues, Owen Mercer and Evan McCulloch fought valiantly, but it was the Mirror Master who upheld his legacy the strongest with 55.5% of the vote. |

Of Wally's villains, I thought Zoom would be the most popular and thus go further. Very surprised by that result.

Winners from March 26!  Though the Top is popular around these parts, he completely spun out as Pied Piper took the round with 65% of the vote. Dr. Alchemy might have had the right spells, but nothing can beat our favorite Aussie. Captain Boomerang advanced with 55% of the vote. In another close battle, Mirror Master (Sam Scudder) amazingly defeated the rage of Grodd with a vote of 55%. And in today’s no-contest, Inertia ran past the Thorn with 84.2% of people’s favor. And that completes Round 2! |

It seems Captain Cold is gonna win our FMM. I'd bet on him.
If he doesn't win, Reverse Flash will.
