No Saturn V

That damn random.org places the Hermes against Discovery One, one of the most iconic Sci-fi ships ever. (By the way I cheated and voted once for both).

Don't blame me, I voted for Hermes...

How is Max from Flight of the Navigator not on here?

Somebody wrote "that ship from Flight of the Navigator" and that didn't cut it for the crusty old curator of the contest.

Saturday morning bump. The current cutoff for the Round of 32 is 26.5% of the vote.

Seems people enjoy the "Star Wars" films somewhat. Currently holding down 6 of the top 10 seeds.

As a lifelong Rush fan, this was an easy decision.

The SSV Normandy: a ship so nice, I got to vote for it twice!

Sunday bump, the fun starts tomorrow

The group poll is closed after 142 votes.

You misspelled Dr Evils Wang Ship

True confessions: I voted for Voltron over Slave I.

With zero manipulation by me, only based on the voter %s, if the seeding holds, the Elite 8 could bring Slave I vs. the Razor Crest and Enterprise vs. Enterprise

And I watched Close Encounters again over the weekend to prepare for the Mothership making it deep into the play-offs, only to find-out she was eliminated from the get go. Now I'm stuck with 10 boxes of Idahoan mashed potato flakes.

---

You didn't happen to bring your yard work into your living room by any chance, did you?

FWIW, The Klingon D7 and Bird of Prey are different ships.

#12/#21 is the tightest contest through 12 hours

Morning Bump - VOTE NOW!

Let's honor Dr. King's legacy by voting on a bunch of spaceships.

First time those letters have ever been arranged in that order?

I like Star Wars as much as anybody but it seems a bit overrepresented in the round of 32.

U-wing AND B-wing, seriously? Not to mention the A-wing is better than both of those anyways...

Finally, if the Roci gets beat by an ugly nondescript gunship I'm gonna be disappointed.

---

A lot of people will just see Star Wars and automatically vote for it.

Spoiler alert:

You're going to be disappointed

I'm starting to think a better format would to pick the best ship of each franchise and then have the tournament with one. It's little surprise but star wars is going to choke out the rest.
