How the showdown works
This is an entertainment poll, not a prize giveaway. Repeat intentional human votes are welcome; automated voting is not. Counts represent votes cast, not individual people. Votes start at zero each matchup. Signup and purchases are not required.
Thursday 8 a.m. opening, Sunday 5 p.m. voting cutoff, Sunday 6 p.m. result announcement, Pacific time. Both ads must be approved before a match opens. Unlaunched expired matches stay closed until staff reviews the schedule. Ties, including zero votes, require a recorded staff coin toss before advancement. Unresolved results block dependent matches.
Contender artwork remains the same throughout the tournament. Tournament signup is separate from requesting a class. Results never automatically send a message.
