Alright, so it is now at the deadline of midnight, EST, marking the beginning of Saturday the 14th. In a rather unprecedented turn of events, we are faced with a three-way tie for third place, while the top two spots are decisive results.

In order to fix this, I have a solution that may seem controversial, but let me explain. First, since I haven't mentioned this before: You are most definitely allowed to change your vote at any time you want before the deadline, if you feel the need to do so. I am doing that today in order to break this tie.

And yes, some may view this as me taking too much power, but let me explain further: As this concept was being reformed to avoid a repeat of the original version (which was overrun by trolls), one possibility that was brought up and contemplated was the idea of an executive committee of the highest-ranking, most well-known, and most knowledgable users about the series, alternatively getting to decide on some of the inductees or at least oversee the process to avoid troll-ish results. However, that idea was ultimately scrapped in favor of leaving the results entirely in your guys' hands in a truly democratic process, but with the votes simply easier to monitor through the comments rather than in a regular anonymous poll.

Thus, consider this the one - and I promise you, the only - instance of "executive" involvement in this blog. If there is ever a tie in the poll such as this one, I will rescind my own original vote - whomever it was for - and cast it between one of the tied contestants in order to break the tie.

With that being said, I cast my vote with two things in mind: The first being my original description of who I felt the three inductees should be, and the other taking into account the only votes that were cast but disregarded due to those two users not having enough MS edits to qualify. With all due respect to them, and to acknowledge their desire to participate, I will cast my vote for the person that both of them voted for, as well as who I feel is most deserving between the three. Between LeShawna, Geoff, and Izzy, who are tied at 2 votes each, I cast my vote, the third vote, for...
