The WDW Attraction Summer Madness created by DenseWaveTiger was a popular competition on these boards and a fun way to determine which WDW attraction was most popular amongst our members. Within the thread containing the championship match-up, several people expressed an interest in a Fall Madness competition with either restaurants or resorts. There are not enough resorts to create a full blown tournament, but fortunately there are plenty of restaurants. After thinking about it, I decided it could be fun to have a tournament with the restaurants around WDW. This would give us a chance to see which types of cuisine are popular amongst our members and how everyone's tastes vary.
Personally, I feel DenseWaveTiger did a great job with the Summer Madness competition, both organizing it and keeping up with it through the competition. Since it was a success, I will use the same format for the Fall Madness. I have created a bracket with four regions: Magic Kingdom Region, Epcot Region, Hollywood Studios Region, and Animal Kingdom Region. The region names are solely to keep track of the brackets and have nothing to do with the matches in each region. In other words, the Magic Kingdom Region does not contain only restaurants from the Magic Kingdom and so on. The restaurants in each region are seeded 1 through 16. Like the previous competition, I will not reveal the seeds for each match-up in order to keep it as unbiased as possible. I ranked the restaurants mostly by my preference since I felt that is the only way I could do it fairly. Regardless, there are some pretty interesting match-ups and I look forward to seeing what people choose.
This competition comprises of sit down restaurants, both casual and signature, as well as dinner shows. I had to leave out the counter service places because there were just too many and could probably have their own competition.
The rules are pretty much the same as the Summer Madness. I will post four matches for the first round and then each person can vote on who they like for each match and include any comments they would like to share. The first restaurant to receive (15) votes for the first round wins and moves on. The first set of matches are:
Magic Kingdom Region:
Cape May Cafe (Beach Club) vs. The Hollywood Brown Derby (Hollywood Studios)
Wolfgang Puck Cafe (Downtown Disney) vs. Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room (Epcot)
Epcot Region:
Via Napoli (Epcot) vs. Restaurant Marrakesh (Epcot)
Cinderella's Royal Table (Magic Kingdom) vs. Big River Grille and Brewing Works (Boardwalk)
Okay, have fun!
