The Sweet 16 has gone. Voting starts now for the Elite 8! Once again, if you have a few minutes to devote to the ongoing silliness, please vote on the Photo Contest to Mash-Up +Keith Cramer that started last week.
(1) Review the entries: http://goo.gl/VZB5Y
(2) Vote: +1 your choices in the first 8 comments of this post by adding a +1 to the comment containing your pick.
(3) Final 4 announced after 11:59pm (EST) Thursday 9/6.
+Mat Brown vs. +Lacerant Plainer = 12 to 5
I really thought this one would be a closer race! "Sexy" wins over Geek.
+Kristi Fahlsing vs. +Emilio Boronali = 7 to 8
Very close race on this one! Truly this one was difficult for me to decide. There were two radically different approaches to the contest. One classic photo edit and the other an homage to Big Head Jim and done in real life.
+Mark Drysdale vs. +Allen Simpson = 9 to 7
To me, this was a surprise! I would have bet that the Geek-tastic meme-oriented image would win hands down!
+Mellie B vs. +Nunzia Nullo = 17 to 2
This was the biggest blow-out of the voting! I think the interpretation of not having Keith's actual face in the graphic worked against Nunzia. Well, that, plus the fact of the line drawing being an early favorite for the sheer wash-your-eyes-with-bleach aspect of it!
+Bearman Cartoons vs. +Kimberly Chapman = 9 to 8
Captain & Tennille trumps Hairy Slave Princess Leia. It was a toss up.
+Salvio Giglio vs. +Mary C. = 5 to 12
Western gunslingers shoot tuna full of holes!
+Kyla Myers vs. +Halfdan Reschat = 15 to 6
Hey Halfdan, I wrote a song for you! Let me sing it for you… Spanked! Spanked! Spanked! Spanked! By a girl! With your own shark! Spanked! You got Spanked! Pwned! Noobed! Teabagged! Rode the Porcelain Ferry to Spanksville! Frosted Like a Chocolate Cake! Soon to be available on iTunes. 😉
+Sergio Garza vs. My Daughter = 7 to 9
Another close one. My daughter will be happy to see the Keith Headed Giraffes live to fight another day. Until they are eaten by a shark.

Fine then, I vote for +Mellie BÂ all the way, mostly so she'll trounce you back into your Leia costume where you clearly belong.
+Kristi Fahlsing is really a fine lady and a respectful opponent but I've just KILL HER IN DA FACE MOTHAFUCKA! (just to humbly express my pride…)
Phew and I had to wait for 5 minutes! FIVE!!!Â
My vote has been cast and I shall be happy to watch the ensuing
bloodbathehr friendly competition 😛BTW I appear to have missed the first round of voting.  Pity.  Could've had a tie.
* moar sniffling *
How in the heck did you miss it? I figured for sure I was going to get blocked for all the "voting now" comments I put up on posts all over heck and tarnation! Were you hanging out on Facebook again?!!?
Probably because I was doing that thing…um…what's it called…oh right… actual work. :p
I said somewhere something about voting for +Mellie BÂ and that was the last I recall of it. Â I was ignoring my stream a lot recently while working and didn't see a notification, so I missed it.
Awesome song, +Scott Cramer. It had me burst out laughing. Now if only someone actually made an audio version of it.
+Mellie BÂ I recognise that mine is toast next to your entry, and to be honest, I had to fight myself to vote for myself. (I voted for yours in the previous round)
Oh well.
+Scott Cramer this resume pane is very professional! Great graphic job! I'm happy for mine apport to this challenge! Hail for all! 😀
+Mark Drysdale 😉
Holy crap Mary c already has ten votes and I just woke up. I give
Unless there are some hail Marys in the wings, I'm pretty much ready to call this one and move on to the Final 4. I'm not one for drawing things out unnecessarily. I do want to make sure and give everyone interested a chance to participate, but I think interest is waning and it's time to cut to the chase and move along to the next big thing.
2 pluses so far in favor of not bloodying the opposition. Good enough for me. Stay tuned.
Final 4 Voting Starts NOW! The Elite 8 was a blood bath, so I called it. http://goo.gl/3opeo?
Vote for the ultimate +Keith Cramer mash-up! That's right. The THUNDERDOME CAGEMATCH FINALE has arrived.
