VOTE: TDOS Cabin by the Lake Movie Draft - Quarter finals

[VF21]

Same rules as last time. You will vote for one cabin in EACH of the four polls. Votes will once again be public so I can verify only one vote per person per pair. The poll will remain open for 7 days. In the event of a tie at the end of 7 days, that pair alone will have voting extended.

Thanks once again to everyone for their participation.

The pairings this round are:

1. Jespher v. 9. King-Da-Yah
5. Padrino v. 4. Sluggah
3. Warhawk v. 6. R2D2
7. Double-K v. 2. Capt. Factorial

Draft lists are shown below along with links to the write-ups. There's some great stuff in there so feel free to take some time and read them.

To be honest, I voted based on my initial rankings, which were actually hard to order and keep straight with so many available. Had I read them again, head to head, I might have gone the other way. It’s a really good list.
