Best cage match ever: Jaime Lannister vs Hermione Granger. Teehee! These people mean business; they even have a whole story of how the fight will go down. Their prediction: Hermione. Results so far, after 14k votes: Jaime by 73%. (Edit: now at 15k+ votes, Jaime has increased his lead to 75%. Wow were the predictors wrong.) I voted for Jaime, but had no inkling that he'd be THAT far ahead. So flist, if you want to save your beloved Hermione, better do it soon...
I'm having so much fun with all these various "March Madness"-esque voting things that I'm considering starting one of my own. I'd be a total noob at running it, of course, but people will forgive me, right? I'm thinking like, a smackdown of our favorite characters that originated in novels. Is that already being done somewhere? Haven't seen it myself, but that doesn't mean anything.
Question is, what's a fair way to determine the initial field of 64? I'll need to read up on communities that do this sort of thing and use their best practices.
Also, are polls still for paid members only? If so I may have to prevail upon someone with a paid membership to help me set up a community in which polls can be posted.
