Daaaang, round 2 is shaping up very iteresting! Looks like the only guarantee is Muir v Lang (Muir). Things will get personal with Chan v Smith, Lemon v Kessler and Barnett v Gouskos (assuming Carrie beats Leigh). I'm gonna say finals will be Vignocchi v Rorie, Vignocchi takes it (even though I think Muir or Gallup should be the real winner).

I'm putting my money on Whitta winning the whole thing. If Johnny V can beat Whitta I say he wins.

@gunslingerNZ: Every single match-up so far has at least one guy saying "man, why are you making me choose between this two" and it's still round 1.

That's true, and it's a fun little competition by all means, the right side could do with some evening up though...

Is this anything like Kony 2012?

Unlike Kony the money goes directly into Kessler's soup wallet.

Johnny V versus Gary Whitta is a vicious goddamn match. That is finals material right there, and it's happening in round 2!

Either one of them has potential to go all the way.

I think it'll be Rorie v. Gallup at the very end. And Gallup will win because if he didn't decide to do what he does now, why WOULDN'T he be here with the rest of the crew? He was the head of On the Spot's Voltron form.

@Winternet: Hey, you included the wrong link as the link to Vignocchi v. Whitta/ Rorie v. Sessler. It links to Smith v. Rea / Alexander v. Gouskos.

If it comes down to pure creativity, it should be Jeff Green vs Notch. Everyone else is irrelevant .

I think he means that a person can have the winning option in the poll, but still lose based on the secondary votes - basically what happened with Gary and Johnny V.

Yeah the voting style has been confusing. It makes total sense - but not immediately apparent. Could radically shift the results based on how someone incorrectly percieves the current results, but eh.

The reason why Johhny V will beat out Matt Rorie in the finals:

"While on a private jet with one of the cover athletes for the NBA Baller 's franchise, Vignocchi showed the athlete his PSP which had an adult film on the memory stick, in which the NBA athlete replied, "I love white girls!" At the request of the athlete, John later sent him a Memory Stick Duo filled with porn which included the infamous "Mr. Hands" horse bestiality video at the end of it. He never heard back from the NBA superstar afterward."

That beats out puppies 12 times out of 10.

There are no secondary votes. People wanting to vote for Johnny have two options and people wanting to vote for Gary have two options. Adding the two and bam! there's your results.

Secondary was a poor choice of words then, but the point I was trying to make is that a person who is part the winning poll option (according to the poll software on the site) doesn't necessarily win the round because that's only part of their votes, which is what I think Nick was saying was weird.

What if theoretically Carrie wins this whole thing? Does this mean we have to rename the award to Golden Dudette?

Chan vs. Smith??

Are we sure this isn't rigged? Because if it is, I'm all for it if it leads to mega epic match ups like this.

Gary Whitta eliminated, Matt Rorie advanced? This contest is deeply flawed.

If people are going by the criteria, which I doubt most are, then I would actually agree that Johnny V. "has made a better, bigger impact on Giant Bomb" (and is also a cooler duder). Rorie, though... I guess it depends on how you define "better".
