More stats that are premature and should not be viewed yet.

I have the same counts except:

cdollaz: 25
Flynn: 11

I'm not going to bother re-counting unless that race gets closer.

Crap I forgot. Ignore the premature results

I have removed my posts so as not to unduly influence the electorate.

Wow. Didn't realize I was tied. Thought I was going to go down in flames this round.

I hope there's no tie-breaker, since I'll likely not be able to vote for myself (I can't check from work, so I only have access before 8 am, noon - 1 pm, and after 4:45 pm all EST). But them's the rules.

There's a new Dr. Pepper commercial that uses a song from the Muppets and it's really gotten me thinking about what a great movie/soundtrack that was. You definitely got points in my book for it.

1. Aphex Twin (i am an electronic music whore)

3. cdollaz (ok computer, frank black, tom waits..love flynn's siamese dream though)

7. DJLinus (dj al the way here, everyone of his albums are great to me)
8. Damfino (what can I say, I am a sonic youth fan)

In the interest of full disclosure, I e-mailed everyone who had not voted yet who had a public e-mail address listed. That was how whaaat and TripWire stopped by. I just don't want anyone thinking there was any weirdness going on or vote campaigning.

Yeah, I got an email from Vryce offering me a $10 Amazon gift card to vote for him in every round, so that's why I'm here.

My counts:
Aphex Twin: 29
Ryuryu: 10

ChrisKnudsen: 14
maxfisher: 25

cdollaz: 26
Flynn: 13

Lokimok: 12
BadlyDrawnBoy: 27

Vryce: 19
illinium: 20

Giles: 19
jimdrix: 20

DJLinus: 20
cleaver: 19

Mordred: 20
Damfino: 19

We had 5 participants abstain from voting (two of those also didn't vote in the first round).

Aphex Twin again had runaway wins in both rounds, but surprisingly there was a lot of people who didn't vote from him before who voted for him this time. By comparison I didn't receive a single vote from someone who didn't vote for me the first time. (at least among game participants)

Outsiders voted 11-1 for cleaver which almost helped him eek out the win.
They also voted 8-4 in favor of Vryce who also lost. They voted 9-3 in favor of Aphex, cdollaz and BDB as well.
