    Cohen- I like mav a bunch but question his loyalty!
    DCKid- Courage under fire.
    Puedlfor- <-----how the hell do you pronounce that?
    VesceySux- Because he does.
    Refman- Although B Bob is one of my favs.
    Batman Jones- Cause I hate the Cowboys. Mature, right.
    drapg- Trust this...I won't get out of this round once the conservatives break for tea:)
    Trader_Jorge- For the first time yesterday we argued and didn't resort to name calling, although I'm sure he won't be inviting me to any 'socials' anytime soon.

    Hey Manny thanks for yesterday, I don't even like Warren Sapp...sheez!

    Cohen -- very tough call for me.
    DCKid -- ditto, but some music posts tip balance
    Live -- b/c I'm too new to know puedlfor and too lazy to browse through older posts.
    VesceySux -- user name wins last-second point

    Refman -- substance over silliness. I, Gonzaga, am happy with my run.
    Batman Jones -- thoughtful posts and crucial representative of "cultural elite," (non-pejorative).
    drapg -- "numerus super qualitam"
    Trader_Jorge -- in a nail-biting shocker. sorry AB, I'd much rather have a beer with you. but, much as I dislike his manors and methods, and even though I've given up on "dialogue," I like the pepper of T_J's views and perspectives on the BBS. We can't all be nice.


    Thanks for running this, Manny. It has helped me shake off the demons of not getting elected to student council in high school! :mad: ;)

    I missed a bracket or two. What happened to Phi??

    Anyway, my votes:


    Cohen
    DCKid
    Puedlfor (He'll probably win this thing)
    VesceySux
    B-Bob
    Dallas Thomas *changed*
    RC Cola
    Trader_Jorge (Tough call as I enjoy both tremendously. The Sapp post was the deciding factor. I just can't vote for anyone who sticks up for that thug.)

    Even though a couple of you didn't vote for me, I refuse to be petty... :)
    My new campaign slogan: "Don't blame me. I voted for Windandsea." :D

    I was going to post for B-Bob all the way...then he posted his self-portrait :D.

    Anyway, I still vote for B-Bob. All the others are ties.

    Hey, I hate the Cowboys too, what a coinkindink! That probably stems from the fact that every person I meet has to ask me "Your name's really Dallas? Are your parents Cowboys fans?"


    But yeah, I pretty much gave up on this tournament thing once I saw who I was up against in this round too, so I am formally and regretfully withrdrawing my candidacy.

    :(

    Well, I for one cannot possibly express my disappointment being matched up with dt333, one of my very favorite posters. And one whom I actually thought was destined to shock the monkeys and win it all. And one too who is perhaps, coincidentally enough, the only regular poster on here who's done more time than I have and still fights for his right to party. Don't back out yet, DT. I only barely came back from the dead vs. vj23k. And I'm rooting for you. My votes to follow.

    Entertainment value as criteria. Although I'm beginning to think TJ is a character schtick like say, Emo Phillips, instead of a real person ;)>. If so, he wins that one. Ok, maybe not.

    Well I am confused? I count it 10-9 in my favor but I don't advance? :confused:

    I didn't vote for myself and neither did VesceySux... I probably would have voted for him. :D

    Well, you forgot 2 things:

    1) red's vote of "all lower seeds" (VesceySux was seeded lower than you at #7), thus that made it 10-10.

    2) When there is a tiebreaker, whoever I voted for is the winner...:p

    [size=1/2]It was tough to vote against you, Sonny[/size]

    Boo-yah, Sonny! Just kidding... I honestly thought I had no chance against you, whatsoever. Guess I'll put my concession speech on hold. Just call me the "Cinderella" team in this tournament... :D
