Why am I still awake and making this very shallow post?

So, there's this big multifandom March Madness cage match poll thing going on.  It is extremely frivolous and seems likely to devolve into wank, yet fun!  So, here is a link and a tiny bit of pointless rambling on behalf of my favorites.



The first round, pitting characters within each show against each other, is going on, and the Doctor Who category is insanely close.  When last I checked, Ten and Eleven were way ahead of all other competitors, with Ten in the lead by a mere six votes out of many hundreds cast.  If you have an opinion on this matter, you have until I think 1 pm Eastern time Thursday to vote in this round.  (My vote, for anyone interested, went to Donna Noble.  I considered strategically changing my vote to Ten to help him beat Eleven, but I just can't. Donna Noble > all others.  FACT.) 

Also, in the Sherlock category, where are all the John fans at?  Realistically, I understand that Sherlock is almost certainly going to win, but our John deserves way more love than I'm seeing.  Watson fans, go vote!

We now return to comparatively non-controversial matters, like Wisconsin politics.

Forcing us to make decisions between characters on our favorite shows is just mean. :^(

It appears that a lot of my choices are going down, most by quite hefty margins. *grumble* At least Dan Rydell looks like he's going to win Sports Night.

Also, I disagree with your Doctor Who assessment, but I'm unsure I've got a leg to stand on since less than a dozen people voted with me in that category.

It is rather upsetting to have to choose between so much awesome, especially in shows where the characters' interactions are what make the show good.

Yeah, liking less popular characters can be a lonely business. Sometimes I don't understand the fandom hivemind's preferences. Still, at least in the Doctor Who category there are almost no bad choices.

Oh hell, the bracket is now up. With Eleventh Doctor vs. Mal Reynolds in the first round.

Dammit. As if the intra-show choices weren't hard enough, now I have to decide between a personal favorite and someone I think has a pretty good shot at winning the whole shebang.

When I saw that every single Doctor Who character from old and new were all against each other, my brain shut down.

It is rather mind boggling. I guess that's the point? Torchwood and the Sarah Jane Adventures are in that category too. D:

I totally voted for Donna. And I wanted to vote for Mycroft, dammit!

Well. Donna won over all the other Companions! As she should. *nods*
