This is about as thrilling a Chalice Race as we've ever had! And we've already shattered the Chalice voting record of 58!
Dare I say it? Can we break 90?
I think with the three way battle going on right now, we really could!

We are at 68 votes and still a neck-and-neck race for the Chalice between phargle and RGB with Jestor nipping at their heels!
(asd and Alfred, meanwhile, are enjoying a nice stroll and look to finish quite relaxed, if not too quickly)
Ideally we break 70 today!

Ideally Phargle won't kill us all.
...
If we run in opposite directions, somebody may make it.

that's why when I run away, I'm pushing someone to the ground so phargle is distracted. Thus, I can escape death...
Let's watch the spammy type posts folks. Talking about the AARs or the poll is fine. Let's not go beyond that.
Great to see such numbers over here. It speaks well of CK.

Haven't been here in a while, but I do need to stop by and show my support for Beautiful Girl and the History Class. An AAR that broke boundaries ... and maybe hearts.
What's interesting to note is that all 5 of these finalists are in the Top 25 Most Views For CK, including 3 in the Top 10:
#1. Knud Knytling
#7. The Beautiful Girl and the History Class
#8. The Adventures of the Crovan Clan
#12. A Year's Education
#25. Heaven on Earth

Sitting at 83, we are only 7/8 votes away from an AARLand Record!
So, late-comers and slow-readers - get those votes in!
Also: today and tomorrow are the last days to vote for the OscAAR, so head over there if you haven't yet (they've got 73 votes)

Utterly amazing how tight this one is.
This was definitely a hard decision... I loved reading Heaven on Earth and A Year's Education-- they're both Byzantine, and we Byzantophiles have to stick together! But then there was the Beautiful Girl in the History Class, which I read fervently and unfortunately commented in only sparingly. But those Crovans always had to break in (lead by pint sized Halfdan), and through their hilarious lives and ends, made me smile each day.
However, at the end of the day, the great philosopher Knud Knytling spoke, advising us all to send our problems to Church. And lo, my hand was moved, and my vote hath been cast.

89 Votes! This is amazing folks...we get three more and we tie 2nd overall most votes garnered! (#1 is probably out of reach at 133)
On another note...I will be out of town from tomorrow until 4/11 or 4/12, so while the poll closes on 4/10, I won't make an "official" announcement until then...feel free to congratulate whoever wins this epic matchup in my absence!
And, by the way, congratulations to everyone nominated (excluding myself) and to all the voters, you have made this the greatest Chalice Vote ever!
