Someone has decided to vote many, may times in a row this morning. Please continue to vote as you normally would and I'll sort out the mischief late tonight.

Someone has voted upwards of 200 times today. I'm not really sure what to do at this point. I don't have the time to sift through and find the legit votes. Will try and figure out how to move forward tonight.

Pretty sad that someone is so insecure with their own opinion that they need to have it validated on a college message board.

Our power has blinked a couple of times from the storm, so the tournament is going on hiatus for the time being.

Well when you guys vote "My Name is Maximus Decimus Meridius" speech over the opening sequence of Star Wars one needs to take his revenge some how. I would have understood it going down to Phoebe Cates boobies but Russell Crowe? C'mon man!

And just in case you missed it, please note the winking icon above,

I voted for Gladiator. That is one of the best cinematic moments of my lifetime and it deserved recognition. I voted for plenty of Star Wars.

We got to my father-in-law's around 8 last night. Made my girls some mac & cheese, got the dogs settled down, crashed out about 1030 p.m. 1 a.m .- the power goes off at his house too. Doesn't come back on.

We load the 4 of us and 4 dogs back in the SUV this morning to drive around to find something to eat / check on our house. Lo and behold our power was restored - although it was 49 degrees inside - but we're back home safe.

I'm going to go through and wipe out the one IP addreses' votes and will post the Final 4 tonight.

Might as well wait for this weekend or next week, unless you are looking for a distraction from everything going on.

Once I took away the 221 fake votes, it only lost by 4 votes.

I think the person that nominated the winner should get a million internet points.

I predict Star Wars thing 1 versus Star Wars thing 2.

Tormund is all over the tournament. I considered cheating him into winning the best character tournament. My heart was in my throat when the zombies almost got him before the Hound saved him North of the wall.
