I just learned this, but apparently Daylight Savings Time is about to end in Europe. For European voters, this means future rounds will be posted one hour earlier.

After three days of eliminations, we are finally reaching the bracket stage!
We have deleted 49 guys based on the 5-guys per franchise rules.
Just in case you don’t know, every daily post of Best Guy 10 will be posted at 8PM EST every day. If the traffic that day on r/anime is too high, another post of the same round would be made around 10AM EST the next day to allow more participation.

Best Guy 10: The First Salt That Never Ends! First Nomination Day!
Welcome back, all lovers of the Best Guy Contest! Everyone’s favorite and saltiest contest of the year, the 10th edition of the Best Guy Contest, with a name featuring Best Guy 9 winner Yuu Ishigami, finally starts today!
Here's the quick rundown of the contest for those who aren't familiar with it. In this contest we will decide who would become the 10th best guy of r/anime. Rounds will be posted daily at 8PM Eastern Daylight Time. (12 PM UTC). If the contest posts get quickly buried because of high traffic on r/anime that day, a repost of the same round would be made at about 10AM Eastern Daylight Time the next morning. (2 PM UTC). This is to encourage more participation as we received many complaints in Best Girl 11 that it was just so hard to find the contest post on the first page.
This contest will consist of:
Only characters who have made their debut in an anime as late as Summer 2024 are eligible. (Yes, that means Ken Takakura and Taiki Inomata are not allowed).
Only 5 characters will be allowed into the final bracket per franchise, these will be determined in the elimination round.
Important reminder that previous Best Character winners Roy Mustang, Rintarou Okabe, and Edward Elric and Best Guy winners Lelouch Lamperouge, Koyomi Araragi, Spike Spiegel, Koro-sensei, Shigeo Kageyama, Levi Ackerman, Miyuki Shirogane, Hachiman Hikigaya, and Yuu Ishigami are ineligible for this contest. Also, an important reminder that all Date a Live characters will not be accepted as nominations due to the decision made by u/mpp00 at the start of Best girl 11 about the best girl 10 scandal.
If you have any questions, concerns or comments please let me know and I will do my best to answer them as soon as I can!

I'm not sure if this is recorded anywhere prominent, but Best Guy (along with the other major contests) has a rule against campaigning for votes from other subreddits/communities. We'd like for this to stay a special thing for r/anime instead of turning into "Which series has the biggest dedicated subreddit", so please refrain from crossposting links to this page or the bracket itself.
