Tiebreaker system for the final four and championship round

Up until this point we've been using a count-back of the Money Beets' votes to break any ties. For the Final Four round and the Championship round, the tie-breaking system will be as follows:

If at the midnight deadline for voting, there is a tie, voting will be extended for another twenty-four hours, in which time additional voters will need to be rallied and encouraged to vote. If there is still a tie at midnight on the following night's deadline, voting will be extended another twenty-four hours and so on and so forth until one band is able to make the metaphorical three-point shot at the buzzer to win the match-up.

For these rounds, voters must either have voted before or be able to sufficiently identify themselves. I.e. "NewportHome" is the only person that is allowed to vote despite the fact that we have no idea who they are.

Why wasn't Johnny Cash in the running?

That's the only big mistake I think I made in my creation of the bracket. He absolutely should have been in there.

Well, as long as you know what you did I guess I can't stay mad.

I'll say it again here: the deadline for the elite eight voting is tonight, thursday, at midnight.

You're a deadline.

Taylor said...

Your face is a deadline!
