Again, since a bunch of girls ended up with the same number of nomination points or votes, their internal ranking was determined with how early they got nominated, with the girls nominated earlier gaining more favorable seeding.
Tournament matches will take the form of daily Fediverse polls, and will last 24 hours. I will aim to have them begin at around 14:00 Eastern Time. That said, I am looking for some input: Should I start the tournament tomorrow (I may not be able to set up matches on Sunday tho), or should I wait until Monday to build the hype and avoid interruptions? Also, do you want 2 matches a day during Round 1, or 1 match a day?
