For those who aren't aware of the title reference, it's an NIT pun. But with two additional letters in front of the "IT" instead of the N.
This is my attempt to continue the brackets in a small way after the main field is done. Is there a game show you hate that didn't make the field? Is there a show you think was terrible, but couldn't quite make the cut? Well, this is your chance to "honor" it, if you will. Here's how it works. Nominate 10 game shows that you feel are the worst, but did not make Fiery's Turdament. Here are the shows you may NOT nominate (ignore the extra tidbits):
Ignore the extra tidbits, but here it is:

HOWEVER, the nomination process is going to be a little bit different. You will rank the 10 shows from 1-10. 1 being the "best" and 10 being the worst. Each of the 10 shows must have a distinct ranking, with no ties. The shows that make this bracket will be determined by the total number of points it receives, not just how many people nominated it. This is to make the seeding a little bit more distinct and less arbitrary.
Fiery's rules generally apply as to what you can nominate. However, if you are nominating a show that has had more than one distinct host, or more than one distinct format, you must specify which one, or you can just say that you wish to nominate them all. Any judgment calls with nominations and what constitutes a game show will be made by me. I also will be a little more lenient than Fiery about the "can't have ever seen it" rule. Use your best judgment with it overall, but try to be fair. If there's any questions, find Fiery's post when he first took nominations, and use it as a general guide.
I'll let nominations run until Thursday. Then depending on how many nominations I have and how many shows scored, I'll do some sort of bracket, probably an 8 show or a 16 show bracket. If you need clarification on anything, please let me know.
