Cream of Wheat maple, or Fruity Pebbles?

(what ever happened to multi-grain cheerios anyway?... loved that stuff!)

Given that Lookout already gave the victory to AlphaBits, I am for the moment not going to call a foul on the play for cowhead's call of Cream of Wheat Maple as an attempt to pick two in a row ...

But man, what an upset! Fruity Pebbles lost to somehing as awful looking and tasting as cream of wheat maple??

Agreed! It looks like Cheerios will now have clear sailing through the North... but anything can happen!

Rice Krispies, or Frosted Mini-Wheats?

Rice Krispies, hard to make marshmallow treats out of mini wheats.

While I'm thinking of it ... we should probably figure out how we're going to deal with the crucial semi final and final rounds here ... So much is at stake for all of these fine cereals that have worked and trained so hard all season ...

Not terribly well thought out proposal: Should the semis and finals be determined not by a single call of winner in the matchup, but through the means of a vote by PM? That way some of the dramatic tension of the real end of march madness will be sustained.

Voting should, though, include more than just a call for a particular cereal ... votes should come with justification. The ref (UT) makes the final determination as to whether an additional vote goes to a team for originality or humor or whatever ... the winner, as we all know, is not always the top seed. There are some amazing upsets that occur in sports.

To account for schedules and time zones, voting should remain open for at least 24 hrs ... do the semis one day, and the finals the next.

Oh, additional vote for originality, that is a heavy burden of responsibility. Maybe the automation should include a "sponsor" who runs the tournament and makes that decision.
