Alright...I understand needing to keep the vote close but there's also I point where I find it to be rather ridiculous. As it stands we have 7 votes--all for different people...

Assuming that somepeople will miss the deadline (or "miss" the deadline, if they feel the need) we're fairly close to having a completely pointless situation. A close vote is one thing, a this tie-vote where the first voted for will be lynched because there was no majority tells us nothing.

Therefore, I'm placing myself in prime lynching position for tomorrow by putting one person ahead of the others. Think of it as you will, but this is not a wolfish trick--it is rather an attempt to make any such tricks more visible.

With that I'll vote
++GIL-GALAD

Not randomly as all the other votes have been, but because I find him particularly unhelpful.

SPM--we should have about an hour, maybe an hour 15min....but to be safe go with an hour.
