TiFaux » Tournament

We Have a Winner

Please congratulate the winner of the Nip/Tuck Season Four DVD…

EMILY R.!

Emily mentioned that she discovered us during the TiFaux Madness Tournament and stuck around. Thanks, Emily, for not being one of the crazies that the TiFaux Madness seemed to attract. (Sometimes I have nightmares about TiFaux Madness. The horror… the horror…)

Thanks to all who entered. And don’t forget, you can still enter the Veronica Mars DVD giveaway. We’re getting some good fourth season pitches, but the free DVDs can still be yours if you drop us a line with your two-sentence idea at tifaux-at-gmail-dot-com.

And the winners are…

Maggie — Thu, 19 Apr 2007 03:06:30 +0000

Tom Welling (“Clark”/Smallville) and Kristen Bell (“Veronica”/Veronica Mars)!

There will be more on our illustrious winners later. For now, kudos, and thanks for voting. It’s a proud day for the CW — last in the ratings, but first in our hearts.

TiFaux Madness Draws to a Close

Maggie — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 15:07:01 +0000

Tonight at around 11:00 PM Eastern Standard Time we will be declaring the winners of the TiFaux Madness tournament, thus concluding a month of what most of us consider to be true, unbridled madness. There have been shocking twists and turns, questionable sportsmanship, a complete lack of commenting etiquette, and even a few fun victories for the underdogs. We laughed, we cried. Etc.

We have two very close races right now — at the time of this posting, Wentworth Miller is barely edging out Tom Welling, and Alyson Hannigan has a tiny lead over Kristen Bell. So get your votes in before 11:00 PM Eastern Standard Time.

And then, for fun, watch this.

I’ve disabled comments on the tournament posts. I warned you — all of you. This time (in fact, these many times) you’ve gone too far.

Men’s Championship Round

Maggie — Sat, 14 Apr 2007 04:08:38 +0000

Update: You can stop voting. It’s all over.

I don’t fully understand how it came to this, but here it is — your final pairing of the hottest men of television: tifauxmenround6.pdf

Vote for the final pair by Wednesday at midnight. Here they are, the handsome devils.

Wentworth vs. Tom

Thanks to everyone who voted. It’s been a crazy, dramatic, obsessive, frustrating, fun time. We owe it all to you. Thanks again, and keep reading!

Ladies’ Championship Round

Maggie — Sat, 14 Apr 2007 04:05:42 +0000

Update: You can stop voting. It’s all over.

This is it. The final choice. It’s the perpetual buddy from Buffy versus the ultimate teen detective. Here’s the latest bracket: tifauxladiesround6.pdf

You, the voters, have decided these contests. And now there’s one more choice to be made. Vote by Wednesday at midnight.

Alyson vs. Kristen

Now. Before you all start ripping each other to pieces in the comments, just take a minute and think, and then decide not to post. We don’t censor comments. But you’re really making us want to censor comments, what with all the horrible things said last round. So just stop, okay? Don’t use this as a provocation to say more horrible things. Just leave it be. Walk away. You’re making us all very sad about the state of humanity.

I Screwed Up

Maggie — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 15:18:26 +0000

As a commenter pointed out, I screwed up the bracket. My apologies to everyone who’s already voted. This is what happens after I try to make polls after a bottle of wine. I’m afraid I have to scrap the polls I posted last night and put up new ones. Check the tournament page in a few minutes for the updated polls.

Men’s Final Four

Maggie — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 03:45:07 +0000

Here’s the final four for the men. Guys, let’s just be nice, all right? I know everyone’s all dreamy and stuff, but is it worth it? The name calling? The bitterness? Can’t we all just get along?

We’ll post the updated tournament chart soon. Vote by Friday at midnight, and the final pair will be up by Monday.

Match 1 (revised)

Match 2 (revised)

Ladies’ Final Four

Maggie — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 03:39:41 +0000

These are two seriously tough match-ups. We’ll post the updated chart soon; in the meantime, here are your next competitions. Voting ends on Friday at midnight; the (dum-dum-dum) final round will be posted by Monday.

This round is closed. Go to the tournament page for the latest.
