Me, trying to help (with apologies to far greater writers)

Me: *Reads post asking for contest tiebreaker voting*

Me: *Happily votes to break tie*
Me: *Is shown that my vote produced a tie*
Me: *headdesk

Ties keep on slipping, slipping - into the future.

Gabrielle

Yup, they sure do - on my watch! ("Time", "watch", see what I did there? Yeeeah, I'll let myself out...)

Just don't tell red_satin_doll that, cause:

She's counting on a tiebreaker,
Don't tell me you're her heartbreaker!
We need a decision maker,
Each vote could be a kingmaker,
But I'm just a troublemaker...

[velvetwhip]

Her vote is like a tidal wave, spinning over my head
Drownin' me in her promises, better left unsaid
She's the wrong kind of voter to relieve these icon calamities
There will never be a winner as long as feliciacraft votes you see

Gabrielle

[feliciacraft]

Ladies and gentlemen: the incandescent, the incomparable, the one and only Gabrielle!

*wild applause*

[double_dutchess]

Went to do as you asked, but OOPS!
Sorry...

[feliciacraft]

Oh no, now I've made this round *cursed*! It will be a tie...forever!

:P

[velvetwhip]

To tie or not to tie
Whether tis nobler in the mind for feliciacraft to cast
a vote of outrageous misfortune
or to take arms against a sea of impasse
and by not voting end it; to tie, to weep

Gabrielle

[feliciacraft]

No more; and by abstaining to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That voting is heir to. 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To tie - to weep.
To weep - perchance to recruit: ay, there's the rub!
For in that weep of death what recruits may come
When we have shuffled off this voting round
Must give us pause. There’s the respect
That makes calamity of so wide voting window.

Heeee =) Also, as a person who helped you to fulfill you tie-knotting destiny by voting before you, I feel strangely accomplished. That poll was doing pretty well before we appeared =)

[feliciacraft]

The thought that I'm doing more harm than good did cross my mind, yeah. :P

[snogged]

*giggles*

[feliciacraft]

Well, it was fun, even if my vote did absolutely no good. :P

[red_satin_doll]

Felicia I noticed you haven't voted at btvsats20in20 round 15 yet - we could use more votes and actually prevent a tiebreaker before it even happens.

Not that I wanna cause you more angst - but if it leads to more satiric stanzas I won't complain! :D

[feliciacraft]

It's no good. I produced at least two ties. Hopefully more people will vote after me! :P

[red_satin_doll]

Oh you did you naughty girl *lol* Oh well, two tiebreakers isn't so very bad.
