Yesterday, #93 Lou Reed, ECSTASY defeated #36 Eminem, THE MARSHALL MATHERS LP, 60-59-1. Wow, this one was tense. MARSHALL MATHERS led for nearly the entire time, usually only by about three votes, although it extended to nine at some points. Then, in the last hour, ECSTASY managed to tie, then fall behind by one to two votes. When the time came to shut the match down, it was tied, and the rules are that the tie goes to the highest seed, in this case MARSHALL MATHERS. Just as I was moving my cursor to the off switch, one last vote came in for ECSTASY, putting it over the top. Normally, I turn the match off at 10:00am and like 5 seconds, but this was closer to 10:00am and 50 seconds. I had just had a phone call which delayed me just enough for that last vote to come in. Wild.
Thank you for voting! Your vote well and truly counts!
