What Happened To Those Votes? Oh Well, Time For The Semifinals!

What happened, Blogger? Votes disappeared from my polls! Lame.

Anyway, I have a rough approximation of where the votes where, so here comes the semifinals!

Yes, semifinals, not quarterfinals. Things are different now that we're getting down to the nitty-gritty! Thanks to some ties, there's 10 words remaining, and they'll have to fight their way to the final round, where the surviving words will fight it out in a Winner-Take-All Battle Royale Finale! Doesn't that sound exciting!?

Before that, though, we have to determine the winners of the groups we've established. So here we go: The three group, with some specialist analysis offered by yours truly!

Group 1: Spork vs. Lightsaber vs. Hobbit

Analysis: This looks to be a hotly contested group, with all of these items being popular with the offbeat "nerd" culture (which the author is a proud member of). Spork is probably the least so, which could be of great benefit; Lightsaber and Hobbit will likely steal many votes from each other. Can one of them muscle through and overthrow the ever-popular Spork?

Group 2: Jeopardy vs. Zombie vs. Hurricane

Analysis: A diverse group here, with no clear ties between the words. This one is definitely up for grabs.

Group 3: Spatula v. Vortex v. Fluff v. Pistachio


Analysis: Spatula has been popular throughout the contest, but one of these other words could come up and snag a spot in the final. Who's it going to be in the end?

Now then, let's hope votes don't get wiped out again this time! Go ahead and VOTE!
