I have a very exciting project to think up and now announce almost simultaneously. For aeons, SHL users have discussed and argued about one very important thing: who has the best name in the SHL? Each one of us at player creation sought to clutch this one truth in hand, only to be shown a sad reflection of our own mortality. One cannot know the truth outside of oneself.

It takes a collection -- nay -- a network -- NAY -- A COMMUNITY to discern the truth! Only through combined effort can we push back the darkness of ignorance and step forward into the light. The "EN" light. And with Enlightenment so justly earned, we can walk hand in hand into oblivion knowing that we sought and found the truth of the universe. Her secrets laid bare, there is no more left for humanity to accomplish. We usher in a new age of absence.

METHODOLOGY:

I copied every player name from the index. Since the maximum bracket size is 256, I culled the weak: namely, those who had fewer than 10 points. With still 6 extra skaters left, and also goalies, I decided to make a second bracket. So BE SURE TO VOTE IN BOTH . Once we have crowned a winner for both categories, I will do a sort of "re-seed" of the top handful of winners of both brackets and we can do it justly. Also i forgot I combined the Smebs at first, so Daniel Smeb is in the "extras" tournament, sorry to him.

HOW TO VOTE:

There are two brackets, as mentioned. You will need to sign up to challonge, for which I am sorry but that's the price of entry. Then, simply vote in each matchup. Which name is better? It doesn't really matter how you decide such matters. I'll be back next week with the results and hopefully some more words with which to earn moneys.

Below is the bracket. It may take some time to load in. It's pretty fuckin' big.
