Anyways, allright. I'll wait until this thread is locked and then I screen it.
The winner of that poll (not this but the strawpoll one) then is announced to the winner and Bralia.
It is up to Bralia whether to accept the Strawpoll as the definitive outcome or not.
Another possibility for her is to this poll + strawpoll = outcome.

Going to make an authoritarian request here? I've made some mistakes when organizing the end of this thread and I'd like your help in minimizing the fallout. I'd like to see everyone be chill and fair towards one another. Forget about the race after the lock, let's just wait until the lock occurs. By the time that, there will probably be enough votes that somebody has a deciding lead. I don't want to keep Huskar and Idaho here longer than they're comfortable, so I'd like people to have patience and wait until whoever is available to put up a new thread, regardless of whether the winner is available two minutes from now or 24 hours from now. We can deal with a break, right? And if there really is a tie still, after the lock, . . . I don't want to deal with it, Huskar and Idaho can work something out.

So if we could keep the overflow to a minimum and the excitement tempered, I think we can all keep everything sane. Is this fair? I don't want to keep people pinned here waiting for something to happen when the lock could still be far off.
