I'm so sad that this year, again, I won't be able to participate in this ToB (sniff, sniff) because my work load is just too much. I'm going to try to sneak a few books in if I can. Have fun reading everyone!
A general question: are the matchups being judged daily? I tried to find out the dates of each judging and couldn't find it. Did I just miss it? Anyone knows? Thank you.
The judging happened a long time ago so that the judges have time to read the books and submit their ruling. But the match-ups are unveiled one a day every week day. All of the judges rule on the championship so they also have to read those two books as well so all of this has to be plotted out quite early (which is also why the Zombie round picks were required before the tourney started).

The first match-up will be 2666 vs. Steer toward Rock judged by Brockman, a Powells.com Book News blogger. The match-up will be posted on March 9.
