Ok guys, Rd 1 has ended and round 2 voting has begun. I thought a leaderboard would show up but it doesn't, Only I can see the stats, but will have to manually tally up the totals, but they are recording and we will be able to determine a winner with no problem other than a bit more busy work by me. So get voting on round 2!

Here are the top 60 leaderboard for rd 1. To reiterate, you received 10 points per correct pick in rd. 1, so 2 people managed to pick 31 out of 32 correct in the round (BRAVO!). Each rd, the points per correct pick will double, so rd. 2 each pick is worth 20 points, then 40 in rd. 3 etc... Anyone not in the top 60 scored 250 points or less in round 1. Plenty of time to make a comeback!

This thread seems a bit quiet based on the participation. Is there more discussion over on facebook?

I went ALMOST straight left side this round.
I will keep voting (despite not being in the list above) just to have a differing vote present.
I DID vote in round 1 and round 2... but I don't see my name up there....
The "competition" was obviously rigged to have certain planes eliminated rapidly.FF gliders and rubber power since 1966, CL 1970-1990, RC since 1975.
current planes from 1/2 oz to 22 lbs

The competition is not rigged. As I said in the main post, the planes selected and the ordering of the planes was determined by pooling together as many list as I could find of top 100 aircraft via google. I found about 6 of them and they were all pretty different so I aggregated those lists and found 32 prop planes and 32 jets that appeared the most. Then I just made 4 quadrants with each having 8 prop and 8 jets. Took a bit of work, but I have 0 skin in the game so I didn't order them to try and get a certain one eliminated or anything. Took enough time to just make the chart
You could certainly reorder the planes and get a new outcome every single time, but it is all just for fun. I mean I had the Mustang, B-29, F-4 and F-86 as the 4 #1 seeds....are they really the 4 best? Who knows. It just comes down to who you pick.
