So here's what we're going to do. I will make 6 posts, each representing a different tie. For example:
Post Title: "31st Place"
Body:
"Justin Timberlake and John Cougar Mellencamp.
Vote Now. Ready Go!"
If you remember the tiebreakers from the TV shows and music groups contests, it's pretty much the same here...reply to these posts with your vote out of those matchups in the title of your post(I'll vote as soon as I make those post as an example)....whoever gets the most votes(by THIS SATURDAY AT 1 PM EST...so in about 48 1/2 hours) in each matchup will be seeded with that rank...the second most with the rank below, and so on.
Any questions\comments\concerns? Did I leave anything out? Just let me know!
Thanks! :)
