I've decided to hold off adding this round of polls just for a day or so. With the sheer number of polls going adding another 8 pushes all of the just finished ones off the 1st page. And with 3 of those contests tied 1 or 2 of them would get kicked off Page 1. So I'm going to give it a day or so and probably put these polls up Wednesday night. If need be I'll keep them open an extra day and adjust the schedule.

I'm also pretty sure I've decided that I'll be tagging on an extra week of showdowns for the same page 1 reason. Next week we'll just do the 8 showdowns for one side of the bracket. The other side will go the week after that. Just seems easier to manage and for people to participate.

You're gay.

Fishy, seriously man, aren't they great? I run across rooms when I hear that music just to see her smile at me. Its really quite unhealthy how happy those commercials make me. It only makes me feel better that almost every person I've spoken to who knows them agree completely. Eco is the exception. Well, and my other gay friend.

I'm going to have to get some captures together before I close/open the polls tomorrow.

And I'm actually a big fan of Combs too. Underrated hotness, I say. But I've also never been much for Marilyn. Or her type really. I'll be voting against Pan Anderson too. And if Jessica Simpson hadn't surprised me by getting no support I would have voted against her. Trish Stratus too. Just never been into the big breasted, blonde Barbie thing.


Ahh, Jillian Barberie. I love her so damn much.

Eco, I'm willing to trade you a vote this round? Kreuk for Hurley...You vote Kreuk, I vote Hurley?

Knightley vs. Patrick: Knightley. While I like Tera's -ahem- "work", Knightly is just hot.

Bosworth vs. Durance: Durance. Bosworth has no tits.

Connelly vs. Larter: Connelly. This matchup does very little for me.

Milano vs. Hannigan: This was hard. Hannigan went from being stupid Willow and "band camp" girl to a spicy little red head that I would fuck like a wild animal. Milano has been gorgeous for fucking-ever, but I dont' think I ever wanted to fuck her brains out as much as I do Hannigan right now. But damn do I remember running around town with my buddies trying to find Embrace Of The Vampire to rent back in the day. I ended up going with Alyssa, although, on another day, I may well have voterd for Alyson.

Lily vs. de Ravin: I like them both for different reasons and still have not decided. I think I'm starting to lean towards deRavin and her cute-as-fuck accent.

Romijn vs. Peregrym: Romijn is pretty, but Peregrym is HOT.

McAdams vs. Panettierre: McAdams was GORGEOUS in Wedding Crashers.

Portman vs. Knowles: Portman. She's not "hot" persay, but I like her a lot. There's somethign just beautiful about her. I guess I'm drawn to her public persona of being this really smart chick who is also really cool, too.

So I'm trying to get a jump on this field and figure things out. For the record, here's how I'm setting seedings.

- Straight pt totals where it works.
- In the event of pt ties tiebreaker is whichever lady made the most ballots.
- In the event of pt AND ballot ties tiebreaker is whichever lady scored highest on a ballot.
- In the event of a tie there I just picked whoever I thought was hottest. Its just for seeding.

It works out at the moment pretty well. If things change tonight with more ballots then I'll deal with that. Here's the interesting thing. For the first 60 ladies things work out beautifully. As it happens there are 8 ladies tied for the 4 16 seeds. As it so happens 4 of those ladies made 2 ballots and the other 4 only 1. So it looks like I'm going to put up 4 Play In matchups for the 16 seeds. Works beautifully in my book. I figure I'd put them up for Friday morning and let them run through the weekend before the Field of 64 kicks off on Monday.

No byes. Seems lame. Rather see 4 extra girls anyway. Only other thing I can think is to play the Play In games on Monday with the other ones, extend each day to 9, and screw around. But it seems like a lot of off planning for me and since these are just play ins for 16 seeds I figure Friday-Sunday is fine.

This is the ideal schedule:
4/20 (Fri) to 4/22 (Sun) - 4 16-seed Play Ins
4/23 (Mon) to 4/29 (Sun) - 8 1st Round Bracket A
4/25 (Wed) to 5/1 (Tues) - 8 1st Round Bracket B
4/30 (Mon) to 5/6 (Sun) - 8 1st Round Bracket C
5/2 (Wed) to 5/8 (Tues) - 8 1st Round Bracket D
5/7 (Mon) to 5/13 (Sun) - 8 2nd Round Bracket A/B
5/9 (Wed) to 5/15 (Tue) - 8 2nd Round Bracket C/D
5/14 (Mon) to 5/20 (Sun) - 4 Sweet 16 Bracket A/B
5/16 (Wed) to 5/22 (Tues) - 4 Sweet 16 Bracket C/D
5/21 (Mon) to 5/27 (Sun) - Elite 8 Bracket A/B
5/23 (Wed) to 5/29 (Tues) - Elite 8 Bracket C/D
5/30 (Wed) to 6/3 (Sun) - Final Four
6/4 (Mon) to 6/10 (Sun) - Final


Of course, still 5-6 hours before deadline so more ballots can easily come in. But if you're intending to send one make sure to let me know because it looks like I'll be putting up the prelim polls late tonight/early tomorrow.

After watching Casino Royale again the other day, I'd like to add Eva Green (she played Vesper) to the next go-round's short list. Even my wife thought she exuded natural beauty, especially the scenes where she wasn't wearing makeup.
