Victoria's Secret Heavenly Flowers Fragrance Launch in NYC - Apr 24 2010 Some more HQs...

Noooooooooooo... please read carefully the 3rd line you quoted, or all my messages in the previous page, it's all fully explained. Josie's also my favorite North American model by far, and she's probably in my TOP 5 with Veronika Varekova, Irina, Adriana and Alessandra, but if she's lost she's lost, there's nothing we can do, this is just a game and let's hope next time she does much better, she really deserves to reach the quarterfinals or semifinals but she's never got that far yet.

Yes, both great but... Natalia x3

1. None, or 1.5 each which is the same, as you prefer. 2. Hilary Rhoda x3 (we had that same pairing this week in my contest) 3. None again, or 1.5 each.

Oh, sorry, I've missed it. I was too shocked by the results Thanks for explanation. Me too, I didn't expect them either, Josie and Emily had always been the best North Americans so far, together with Christy Turlington. We'll see what happens now, cause the chances are more open than ever for the rest, and this time one North American will be in the semifinals for sure. BTW, no North Americans have ever reached the semifinals yet, in the previous 3 editions they were all Brazilians, Europeans and Candice Swanepoel (South Africa).

Mmmm... this rule has appeared dozens of times so far, and it's always been written in the very first message of this thread, last line. I searched and even Josie Maran did benefit from it once, she beat Veronika Varekova in a 17-17 draw. Other examples: Noemie Lenoir, Daniella Sarahyba, Karolina Kurkova and Daria Werbowy they all won in a 15-15 draw the same day. Adriana Lima beat Alessandra Ambrosio in another 15-15 draw in the quarterfinals of the 1st edition. Selita Ebanks, one of my favorites, was kicked out by Catherine McNeil in a 13-13 draw in a preliminary round in the 3rd edition. If it was the other way around, the last vote wins, I would be encouraging people to be the last one to vote and it would be a mess, many people would probably leave their vote for later and they would finally miss it many days, and the participation would decrease. So I have to set up a rule that encourages people to vote as quick as possible.

o.O the last person to vote making it a draw voted FOR Emily and Josie... meaning Chrisy & Cindy are out. wtf am I missing? Also Jarah Mariano would be in as well over Megan No, it's the other way around. The one who did not receive the last vote wins, that means the one who received the last vote loses, or the last vote does not count. That's why it is important to vote quickly, or at least not to be the last one, cause if there are any draws your vote could be useless. It's a pity to me too Josie's out that way, the worst possible way, but it's been always like that since we started the first contest, this time the rule is detrimental but it can benefit her another day.

You have it in the 3rd line in the message with the results, in case of a draw the one who did not receive the last vote wins. It's a tiebreaker backwards instead of asking for a new vote, so this way we can go on quickly, and maybe if I asked for 1 more vote then another draw in another pairing could happen again and we'd never end. And another reason is because when you ask for one more vote, some people tend to cheat asking anyone by PM to vote for her favorite, I have seen it in other forums. BTW, the only time that rule doesn't apply is in the Group Stage, a draw gives 1 point each, no matter who received the last vote.

1 Michelle Alves 2 Karen Carreno 3 Ana Claudia Michels 4 Gracie Carvalho 5 Yamila Diaz 6 Thais Oliveira

Time for the South Americans, there are 32 too, 30 will fight for 6 places in the groups in 4 preliminary rounds, and 2 are there already waiting as the group seeds. One of them is Adriana Lima because she was in the final last time, she was actually the winner. SOUTH AMERICA, FIRST PRELIMINARY ROUND: 1 Lais Navarro vs Michelle Alves 2 Karen Carreno vs Raquel Zimmermann 3 Caroline Trentini vs Ana Claudia Michels 4 Valeria Mazza vs Gracie Carvalho 5 Fabiana Semprebom vs Yamila Diaz 6 Daniela Freitas vs Thais Oliveira DEADLINE: Sunday 25th April at 22:00 CET (Paris time), 16:00 EDT (New York time), with a minimum of 20 votes.

Well, 22 votes at last... And 2 of the main favorites are out... I can't believe Josie and Emily are already kicked out. :shock: I remind you that in case of a draw the one who did not receive the last vote wins. NORTH AMERICA, FOURTH PRELIMINARY ROUND RESULTS: 1 Frankie Rayder vs Elsa Benitez 11-10 2 Josie Maran vs Cindy Crawford 11-11 3 Daria Werbowy vs Kim Cloutier 6-16 4 Emily DiDonato vs Christy Turlington 11-11 5 Megan Ewing vs Jarah Mariano 11-11 6 Chanel Iman vs Tori Praver 8-14 Frankie Rayder, Cindy Crawford, Kim Cloutier, Christy Turlington, Megan Ewing and Tori Praver will be in the groups, together with Jennka's 2 group seeds, Marisa Miller and Milla Jovovich.
