    Given that Arjun's team had only 7 players and weak interior defense while VBG had Zach Randolph and I had Nene/Garnett, shouldn't you be asking yourself how Arjun's team amassed such a lead in the first place?

    Also, I don't see the point of having polls if you guys are going to ignore the outcomes and subjectively choose which teams advance.

    Honestly, it seems like everyone knew my team was being anonymously targeted, but no one objected since they also knew that my team was the best in the league and didn't want to compete against it.

    you RedNation, can you read the poll results for each matchup?


    The last time I checked my matchup, I was winning 22 votes to 21 and I just want to make sure that I won and have proof of it.

    Oh yeah here are the next matchups.

    dharocks vs BleedRocketRed
    arjun vs YourSecretLover(pending)
    ICanDunkOnYao vs VBG
    Spooner vs RedNation

    If we are using percentages to seed each team, it should look like this:

    1. ICanDunkOnYao
    2. RedNation
    3. Spooner
    4. Dharocks
    5. BleedRocketsRed
    6. VBG
    7. arjun
    8. YourSecretLover
    Of course percentages do not tell the whole story because your opponent's strength is not measured, but it's the easiest way to objectively rank each team. So far, there seems to be 3 distinct tiers:

    RedNation, ICanDunkOnYao, and Spooner each got over 85% of the vote and won by a landslide.

    dharocks, BleedRocketsRed, and VBG won with about 60% of the vote.

    arjun and YourSecretLover won by just a little over 50% and are barely hanging on.

    All amounts to a big circle jerk from what I can understand. I didn't lose my group, yet somehow I didn't even move on?
