The rules are in the first post:
"The field will consist of 32 combatants spread across 4 separate brackets. The winner of each bracket will advance to the Final Four which will be treated as separate bracket once the first three rounds of combat have concluded. The Winner of Bracket I will face the Winner of Bracket II in the Final Four, with Bracket III facing Bracket IV along side it. The Final Match to determine the champion will follow. Battles will take place in this forum with this thread acting as the main base of operations. Each specific battle will have its own thread for you to discuss and ultimately vote on. I will continuously update this thread with new battles and battle results. In addition, I will post links to newly posted battles as they are launched.
The procedure for each match is very basic. You simply vote on which combatant you think would win. You are presented with two choices, and are only allowed to vote once for one combatant. The votes for each match are placed by you and are to determine who you feel would win in a fight to the death."
