Not without your help. 

What tournament am I talking about?

How about the first annual Real Estate Blog Brawl, sponsored by – officially?  unofficially? – the Virginia Association of Realtors. 

Here’s how it works.  It’s a single-elimination, winner-take-all competition to establish whose blog … well, there’s really no reason for it.  It’s bragging rights, pure and simple.  And I’m fairly certain I’m the first VA blogger to mention it other than the official announcement, so that’s got to mean I’m at the top of the heap – for now.

I can’t win without you.   And you want me to win, don’t you?

By clicking here, you’ll be directed to a single-field entry form.  Enter "http://NRVLiving.Typepad.com" into the field, and click "Submit".  It’s that easy.  The top 64 blogs will move on in the tournament, with one blog eventually standing – after six rounds of exhausting voting – on the top of a very high and successful pile of Virginia real estate bloggers.  There are no rules, which means you can vote as many times as you want for the NRVLiving Blog.  If you’re a programmer out there and can write a script that’ll keep nominating me, feel free to contact me at jeremy (at) nrvliving (dot) com.  I’m not above that … Again, all you have to do is CLICK THIS LINK and enter "http://NRVLiving.Typepad.com" into the text field.

Deadline to be nominated for the tournament is this Friday, February 29th at 11:59pm EST.  Don’t think I want to win this thing?  It’s 1:35am and I’m writing about this tournament, so I’ve got to imagine – at least for the time being – I’m the leader in the clubhouse.  Winners never sleep, and I don’t plan on sleeping until I win.  So start clicking, NRVLiving Readers, and tell your friends about this contest!  There are absolutely no prizes available for helping, other than the good feeling you’ll get once your mouse-clicking fingers regain sensation. 🙂
