That was.. surprising to put them in order, but I guess that a lot of the unexpectedness stems from the lack of interaction between certain characters, so I don't tend to think of them as close contenders to each other.

The first Number is the Sum of Points, that the Characters got. The second Number is the Number of First-Place-Votes.

[Liquor Box]

69 people voted by my count, which means a total of 3,795 points allocated.

edit : had Haley as my #1 and Therkla as #2 - but I think she deserves to be #1 for once ;)

Good GODS this was hard to put together. And beyond the first two places I'm not ah, entirely certain about the placements. But more or less.

[Matt620]

10.) O-Chul
9.) Hinjo
8.) Belkar
7.) Lien
6.) Mr. Scruffy
5.) Xykon
4.) Miron Shewdanker
3.) Laurin Shattersmith
2.) Durkon Thundershield
1.) Celia

Never understood the V fascination, but I guess cool things can happen.

[Gift Jeraff]

10. Tsukiko
9. Qarr
8. Demonic Cockroaches
7. Sabine
6. Leeky Windstaff, evil gnome druid
5. Directors Lee, Nero, and Cedrik
4. Nale
3. Xykon
2. Thog
1. Zz'dtri

Top 3 is a tie and everyone under them is in a tie including the PCs (minus V), Miko, Monster-san, and Malack so I went by who I wanted to give these precious points to.

[Liquor Box]

Coincidentally, I think Belkar just overtook Roy in this poll on the same day he defeated Roy in the quarterfinals of the other.

[alwaysbebatman]

Coincidentally, I think Belkar just overtook Roy in this poll on the same day he defeated Roy in the quarterfinals of the other.

Damn, that is exactly what happened! Roy was 8 points ahead in Present 2.0's last tally, and Belkar's gained 9 on him since.

[Present 2.0]

So, we've still no upsets?!

[Peelee]

Ranked choice voting is best voting.

[Hamste]

So, we've still no upsets?!

Well Tsukiko beat Miko and Celia I believe. That was a bit of an upset.

[alwaysbebatman]

Well Tsukiko beat Miko and Celia I believe. That was a bit of an upset.

A one-on-one upset is a very different animal than a wide-open wildcard field.

I'm not sure that I agree with calling Belkar's win "not an upset" just because he caught up with Roy here as well.

More like a double upset!

[Liquor Box]

Belkar's win wasn't an upset because people's preference for him over ROy is reflected in the current outcome of both threads.

If he manages to dislodge V, that will be an upset. Let's make it happen people!

[JustinKase]

Was curious of some of the lower standings, so was adding everything up for myself and figured I may as well post it :P

For fun I added the smileys and character links from the character count thread - still need to find smileys for Zhou Bo, Former Hobgoblin Supreme Leader (Cleric), High Priest of Loki and Serini Toormuck. Also need first appearance of That Guy with a Halberd.

What I found suprising:

• Greyview is tied with Mr Scruffy!
• Tsukiko is tied with Sabine
• Right-Eye (with no web comic appearances) is beating out Sabine and Tsukiko

[Potatomade]

I may be wrong on all counts, but I think Zhou is somebody from O-Chul's backstory, That Guy with a Halberd is Jiminy, the Squid is Squid-Thingy, and the Former Hobgoblin Supreme Leader is this guy.
