Any news on March madness this year?
I imagine that it will be here but it always takes a day or so to roll out a new monthly sale, and remove the earlier items from the current sale.
Previous years' events didn't necessarily start on March 1st either, but it will come, accompanied by an official announcement / blog post.
Patience, patience. Last year we could purchase until April 14, even though it ended the last of March or beginning of April. I hope it runs that long this year. These are the results from last year:
All Logos March Madness deals are live, but the savings end April 14! Don’t miss your chance to save on more than 1,600 resources.
45% off the 29-volume D.A. Carson Treasury (available only during Logos March Madness!)
70% off works by champion N.T. Wright
60% off works by J.I. Packer
50% off works by Darrell Bock and I. Howard Marshal
45% off works by Bryan Chapell, Craig Evans, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and A.W. Tozer
40% off works by R.C. Sproul, F.F. Bruce, Charles Spurgeon, John Piper, and four other authors
35% off works by Craig Blomberg, Karl Barth, Tremper Longman, Michael Heiser, and 12 other authors
30% off works by John MacArthur, Warren Wiersbe, Grant Osborne, Steven E. Runge, and 28 other authors

The link is live now!
I spoke too soon - can't vote yet as I just get an error message. But you can look at the options at least.
What link? The one above is still for 2016.
Try refreshing your browser cache (reloading the page). The new page isn't working for me, but it's definitely no longer showing the 2016 brackets.
I cant do this anytime I sign in it give internal Faliour
Same here. Unable to sign in - "Internal Failure"
Same issue here. I expect they will fix it in a couple of days. That is why they always give a full week for the first voting so they can work out the bugs.
Same thing. I'll give it a miss this year.
Obviously it's your call, but it seems like overkill to give up on it completely for the year because of a day one technical hitch?
Every round is a full week.
Round 1: 3/1–3/8 Round 4: 3/16–3/21
Round 2: 3/8–3/13 Round 5: 3/21–3/24
Round 3: 3/13–3/16 Championship: 3/24–3/31
Find me a full week for any round except Round 1 or the Championship.
I expect it will be working soon.
Internal error every time I try to log in.
For some unknown reason, rebooting resolved everything. Was able to vote just now.
I restarted my iPhone and no luck, still internal error message.
Getting a server error.
I still get that error on my iPhone, but it's been working on the MacBook.
It worked just now for me. Hopefully it is fixed for others as well.
Unfortunately I am still getting an error message, so it doesn't look like it has been fixed yet.
Soo...I must use Firefox, Chrome or Safari??? I quit. Sorry Guys but no one tells me witch Browser I have to use It's your Game if you want me to play use the Browser I use...
not working in Chrome
Sascha,
I'm on safari and it's not working for me, I'm getting the server error.
So then they have a Problem with sending Message AND with Browsers...maybe we should pray for them
I was having so many problems with voting that I just gave up.
Agape,
Steve
I'm getting the server error.
I was, too, but just a couple of minutes ago was able to get on.

Hey everyone,
We are hard at work trying to solve this problem. We tried something new this year to help resolve vote dumping of past years by tying votes to the account. We are sorry for the inconvenience and hope that you will be patient with us as we work out the bugs. We hope that it will be available on all browsers before the end of the competition.

As I was reading the last sentence, I mentally filled in "before the end of the day" only to find "before the end of the competition"?! Really?
If you can't fix this by the end of the day, or sooner, then you should revert the system and put up with the "vote dumping"!
If people can't vote, THEN THERE IS NO COMPETITION!
Hey David,
We are working to solve the voting problems by the end of the day. It is getting it optimized for browsers such as internet explorer that I was referring to for end of the competition. You are definitely right that if people can't vote, then there is no competition we are taking all these things and your feedback into consideration. We really do appreciate it and thank you again for being patient as we work to resolve these issues.
In the meantime we can check out the "Hall of Fame" offers - https://www.logos.com/hall-of-fame
Many of N.T. Wright's books are in Anglican base packages. For example, I believe 33 of the Treasury's 54 books can be found in Anglican Bronze.
Depending on your dynamic pricing, you may find that a denominational library bundle (books discounted to ~90-98%) is a better deal.
I own everything in both of this 'Treasury' packages from past base package and March Madness offers but you are correct. Base packages still offer the best pricing. The same is true when it comes to the Fortress Press Library Builder currently on offer this month. A lot of the titles in that package are in Lutheran Platinum and lower at a better price if your dynamic price is right. A few titles are in the builder only but not many.

Voting should be up and working properly. Please keep us updated if you run into any more problems. We are still working on fixing the experience on Internet Explorer.
Still not working for me. I can only get into 2016.
I am on a MacBook Pro in SE Asia. Friday, March 3, 8:52AM
Fixed now, thank you! 👍

I'm getting March Madness 2016 too.... talking about excitement[:'(]
Tried again.... done!
I'm having the same problem. It keeps showing me the 2016 page.
Still unable to connect.
This website is temporarily unavailable, please try again later.
It worked for me 2 hours ago. I was able to vote for a full slate of authors.
I got in just fine right now. I think limiting it to one vote per account is a good idea.
Going through the results as of the moment, however, my heart is crying out:
This year I didn't vote on a few of the choices because I had not intention of buying either of their books even if they succeeded. So I encourage others, don't "unbalance" the choices of others purely for the sake of voting, knowing you have no interest to see either of them go through (may be because you have all their books already!).
Vote for the ones you are interested in. Happy Voting.
Voted. Timed out trying to sign up for 24 hour contest. Likely just busy. Will try again later.
Even though I timed out, it actually signed me up. Good to go.
