As told to me by Diamond Dan Beyer, Mohr 64 Commissioner.
What is the #Mohr64??
The 2015 Mohr 64 will span 4 weeks, as we find out who the ultimate tweeter is on Jay Mohr Sports. This tournament is separate from the THTC on the show, so please continue to tweet the show for the Twitter Hat Trick Contest.
The event is run like any other bracket tournament, where the winner of each game advances to the next round until 1 champion is crowned.
What is a “game”?
Well, each round is covers certain dates. Each contestant will send in 3 tweets that will be judged against their opponents 3 tweets. Over the span of each timeframe, each contestant will send in 3 tweets and 3 tweets ONLY. Whoever’s tweets are voted better will advance.
How do I compete and tweet?
Each tweet will need to include the special hashtag assigned to each game. For example, the tweet would look like this… “That’s all the money we had, KAREN!! #GT1JMS”
-You don’t need to include “#jaymohrsports” or “@Jaymohr37”, just the game hashtag.
-If you tweet the show, and want to use that same tweet as 1 of the 3 for your game, that is fine.
-Also with the game hashtag used only, you have more characters to tweet with.
-You will also be sent your specific game hashtags in a separate tweet from Dan Beyer.
When can I tweet?
You can send in the tweet at anytime on anyday during the timeframe, up until 6pm ET/3pm PT on the last day.
You don’t have to listen live. You can always listen on the podcast, iHeart channel, or if the show is delayed in your market. This allows you to compete on your time.
You can send in tweets on the first day or last, it doesn’t matter. But they need to be sent in by that 6pm ET/3pm PT deadline of the final day.
Tweeting rules
Once you send a tweet, do not delete it. We check often, and can tell if a tweet disappears. You are allowed only 3, and those 3 will be judged against your opponents 3 tweets.
The tweets should be in regards to the topics that are being discussed on those days of broadcast.
Voting process
The voting process will take place off the air. Votes will be taken by the Jay Mohr Sports crew to decide who advances.
To allow for participation, each tweet that is sent in for a game can be favorited. The most favorites someone gets in a “game” will count for a portion of the vote. So, if someones 3 tweets get 86 favorites total, and another gets 12, then there will be one vote for the person who gets 86. Remember, this will only count for about 1/5 of the total vote.

So no brackets or seeds yet?
-
Should be up by Wednesday. A lot of work on Dan's plate, and still an opportunity for someone to play in tomorrow.
-
Yeah. Not sweating dan. I know that shit is a grind. Just anxious haha. My tweets aren't even sniffing getting read on air anymore. I feel like this is a chance to feel like I'm back in the game .
-
Stop that. You've been read recently, maybe Friday? Anyway, I figure there will be a lot of Karens and AltDroopy in the first rounds. Lots of new people. See how that plays...
-
Time to separate the true heart of the THTC from the bullshit. I agree with DJ about relevance, but the whole process has changed, Brad. One read is ridiculous from a guy like DJ. #Playah!
-
Bad grammar on that last message Brad. The extra comma was not meant to be there to imply snarkiness toward you. #HoofTap
-
None, taken. #ToofTap

My retweet of Blake Griffin's tweet got read :uhh
-
We wanted to get the brackets out on Monday, and hit a little snag along the way. Since we start games on Wednesday, I didn't want to risk leaving an open spot for Tuesday, so the field was filled. No auto bid will be handed out on Tuesday.
Everyone, remember to use the hashtag that is placed on your "game" on the bracket when you tweet. Otherwise, we won't be able to find it.
-
So the play-in games start Wednesday, if we're already in, do the rest of us start next week?
-
Aaron. First round starts Monday. Print yourself a bracket :-).

I love that Dan did this for us again. And I can't say thank you enough for the automatic berth. I'll try my best to make sure it's not wasted.

Does my matchup start today and last through 3/19, or will I be assigned a certain day within 3/16-3/19?
Thanks!

When do we get our hashtags?

When do we get our hashtags?
Forget it I found it

No problem, Joe. I also told everyone I would tweet them their hashtag, but it was just easier for everyone to find it on the bracket.
There will also be special hashtags for the next rounds that are different, obviously, from the 1st round.
