What?
Every FARKer is asked to vote for their favorites from EVERY letter or section. Please try to review all of them, even if you already know your favorite. There are some real gems in there.

The number of entries from each section that will move on to The Bracket will depend on how large that section was on November 30, 2020.

If the section has fewer than 200 nicknames, only the top vote-getter from all the smallest sections will move on. The top vote-getter for each section with 200-400 nicknames will move on. The TOP TWO vote-getters from sections with 401-500 nicknames will move to The Bracket. Finally, the TOP THREE vote-getters from sections with more than 500 nicknames will move to The Bracket.

Tie Breakers
Tie breakers will be determined in a run off, except in the Championship Round.
