I mean this genuinely, on what basis do you think that second accounts are voting?

Because stip has seen RM.

When a block of 17 votes for evil little goat and each of the underdog songs in each match appear in the span of two hours something happened - and that occurred twice

The tight Jeremy/Buckle up outcome was potentially plausible (if not likely) if the same block of votes (again twice) did not appear at the same time of the others closing what were massive gaps in the totals

To be fair, it could just be members pushing for the underdogs, either out of love for underrated songs or just to be a dick, but ... y'know ... RM. One must assume the worst.

I have not been using a second account but I have been voting for underdogs, for whatever that is worth.

I voted for a couple of underdogs, too. I think we all expect some level of that.

Full disclosure, we can't see who votes or how in the polls, but stip works his dick off on these tournaments, and he doesn't have a job that currently makes that easy, so if you're fucking around with a second account quit. If you're not ... carry on and vote how you want.

I do appreciate all your hard work you put into this stip. It’s always a lot of fun.

Oh for sure - some people have. I have. But I check several times a day, and when suddenly there are a ton of votes that show up for an extremely obscure song against something very popular it feels like it is people messing about.

If Evil Little Goat was up against a Lightning Bolt song I would chalk it up to RM's collective insanity, but against Around the Bend?...

Why aren't any of the Cockage leaks in this tournament? Go back and redo the bracket!

I am pretty sick today and need to go to bed, so I have to close this out early and get the next matches up. I am going to end every match that has more then a five vote spread, and leave the others one open until tomorrow morning. Today's matches will stay up until 8 PM tomorrow. Apologies for the confusion :)
