How did Immigrant Song win? Every time I checked the thread, Achilles was winning. Did Stip just literally wait until Immigrant Song took a lead and then FINALLY lock the thread?

He called it at 10am and IS was in the lead. He did not, however, lock the thread so people kept voting and voting after the winner was called.

Immigrant Song “won” in the same manner that George W. Bush won in 2000, and Donald Trump won in 2016.
Also reflects that half of this board is fucking stupid, just like the voting populace.

That’s what I meant. Stip pulled some “First past the post” electoral college bullshit, for reals.

There was a very clear preset end time for the tournament, and at the end of that time Immigrant song won by virtue of having the most votes. I understand that this is controversial, but such is the world we live in
