Nobody's voting for me in this damned contest!  There's no way I'm making it past round 2.   :cry:   I'm just going to feel sorry for myself now.  lol.

Hey now!  There's no reason for that! :razz: Seems like the biggest problem for most of the people in the contest is the luck-of-the-draw competition they're thrown in.  You have to admit, Dido is a pretty strong contender.  In single-elimination, an entrant that could easily defeat everyone but the #1 record-holder can lose out in the first round if they happen to be playing #1.  What I really want to know is who compiled the seeding for this tournament. :?

Well, I didn't expect to beat Dido, but you're right--I think I could beat some of the other musicians that'll end up making it to round 3 just 'cause of the luck of the draw.  But it's really no big deal.  Some awesome artists got kicked out in the FIRST round, so that's just how it goes.  

Oh well!   :)

"The bands in the tournament were seperated into a top 32 (1-8 seeds) and bottom 32 (9-16 seeds). The top 32 bands/artists all had at least 100 replies to their respective threads, or are popular/board favorite artists who very well could have 100 posts eventually. The bottom 32 were chosen by overall thread popularity, notoriety, and general relation to the board. All seeding except for the #1 seeds (chosen on the basis of most replies to their respective threads) were assigned by a random drawing."

You obviously didn't read the thread!  :razz: :spank:

By the power vested in me, by myself, I say that the winner is the best band not Vanessa Carlton as recognized by the users of NESSAholics.com's Forums  :wink:.

Sorry! Like Zuriel said, Dido is an awesome contender. I've been a big fan of hers for a while now.
