March Madness: Who are these guys?

As I went through the voting process, many of the names I recognized, others I did not and a few I was uncertain about.

Would it be difficult to implement a hyperlink on the name of the author to take us to a list of his books? I'd find it helpful, not only in voting, but also in learning about some [allegedly important] authors I know little or nothing about.

Thanks.

I thought of that, too. Good idea. Just a couple I wasn't too familiar with and went and looked them up separately. For many people, the list would be a big puzzle.

(Even a bit of biography might help.)

For a number of authors I opened another tab in my browser and did a search of Logos products for "author:______" to get an idea of what might be offered (even for authors I know). There were some authors I felt like I like better, but I didn't vote for them because I felt like I already have the books I want for that author.

I wouldn't mind a "No thanks ... can't vote for either of these two" button.

I wasn't going to vote on a a few of those, because I didn't know enough to do so meaningfully. But, no one was looking, so I guessed, and pushed the button.

I felt well rewarded when I was on the broad road with the majority, and a little wounded when I was on the narrow road in the minority--even if I had no idea who they were.

Ahhh. Sweet Catharsis!

Thanks for the feedback! In the get deals section we have added a post that links you to the author bio pages, if they have one, and shows their books that are available in our format. Check out the post here: http://www.logosmarchmadness.com/2014/get-to-know-the-logos-march-madness-authors/

Very nice. There now needs to be a link to that list from the March madness home page. It could be placed in the section that looks like a ticket. It shouldn't be buried under the get deals section which I didn't think would have any interesting content until after the first round was over.

EDIT: I think this link from the Home Page should by default open in a new tab if that is possible. You'd want to see both pages at the same time. (I know I can do that using right click but maybe not everyone does???)
