The 2010 Official ATK Desirable Woman Poll Series - Review

SHOW YOUR LOYALITIES IN THE POLLING BY GETTING AN AWESOME DESKTOP WALLPAPER FROM HERE

The polling is over, and we have a winner. Check below for the poll series round-by-round review of who won and by how much

Guidelines

1. When posting the poll, I will use the image from the initial nominaton. If the person who nominated the woman in question objects to that image, then they and only they can provide me with a new one.
2. In the thread itself, anyone can post any other image directly linking to either of the two contenders under poll. Whilst I'm sure many will appreciate as skimpy or as unclothed as possible, please bear in mind this is not Nuts or Playboy, and thus please limit the extent of nudity, and no pornography of any kind - we do want people to actually come to the site.
3. Polls will last for a determined period of time at the start of each round or end early if there is a significant majority for one nomination over the other.
4. The polls currently under contest will be sticked. Results will be posted in this thread after the conclusion of the poll.
5. In the event of a tie in the first round, the poll will be extended until a vote is cast that breaks the tie. In the event of a tie in the second round and beyond, the winner of the poll will be the nomination with the higher cumulative margin of victory for previous polls [For example, A wins by 2 and 5 in the first two rounds, and B wins by 1 and 7. A and B tie on their poll, thus B (with a +8) beats A (+7)]
6. All polls will be public.

All matchups were put together using a random number generator. I had no control over who faces who (as demonstrated in Round Two with Yvonne Strahovski [my nomination] against Summer Glau [my favourite to win the poll series]).

REVIEW

First - Evangeline Lilly [Chazlene]
Second - Eve Wyrwal [Chalex]
Third - Kaley Cuoco [Oricalcos]

Largest Margin of Victory - +9 twice (Valance bt. Ledger, Staite bt. Foster)
Smallest Margin of Victory - 3 Tiebreakers (Cuoco bt. Johannson, Cuoco bt. Tapping, Glau bt. Tyler)
LOL Moment - Phant wanting to add Yvonne Strahovski in during the final, despite her having been already knocked out by Summer Glau in the second round, and the subsequent discovery that Phantom voted for Summer Glau in that poll.

UPDATE 1 - Added Rule 4, ammended opening paragraph, and inserted Round Two matchup pairings.

UPDATE 2 - There is a link in the first post, but for those that don't see it, I just found an awesome site for desktops (HERE). Just search who you want and there should be loads.

Got me some Summer Glau on my desktop and Kaley Cuoco on my laptop :D

UPDATE 3 - New polls posted and some closed, so changed colours on the polls. Added in current Round 1 winners to Round 2 matchups.

UPDATE 4 - Updated results for round one and the resultant changes to matchups for round two.

UPDATE 5 - Added final results for round one and finalised the round two matchups. Changed formatting slightly. Added a tiebreak guideline as a 5th guideline, and thus have added in margins of victory for Round One and the cumulative totals next to the nominations.

UPDATE 6 - Changed formatting and titles for the results. Added in the early close polls for round two, and added the list of round three matchups if the polls ended now.

UPDATE 7 - Added round two results and ammended round three matchups. Removed Stephanie from Lazy Town jibe from the rules.

UPDATE 8 - Added early closure quarter final results, and posted up matchups for the semi finals. Added colour coding for the semi-finals to make it easier to see who's nominations are there. Added a result as of 1220 GMT on 12th Feb.

UPDATE 9 - Added quarter final results, and updated matchups for the semi finals and their cumulative win margins.

UPDATE 10 - Added semi-final results, and updated matchups for the finals and TPP. Edited lighter colours to dark so they can be read.

UPDATE 11 - Added final results and posted review. Competition concluded.
