Greetings everyone! The election is coming to an end soon, and I'm here to announce the final event for the AiB 2011 Smash Election. This will be the popular vote competition where all of the hard work and campaigning the tickets have put into this election so far shows. The rules are pretty simple, I'll have a poll put up on the front page this Friday (with the help of Neal), and it'll be closed Sunday at midnight PST. The tickets with the top three votes will earn points for their team, so get the word out for your campaigns and tell all your supporters to vote for you!

Also, I'd like to announce the results of the last competition, the Card Creation Contest. I had a lot of good submissions for this, but only 3 tickets can receive points from this contest. The top three tickets are Verm/Diem earning 100 points, Bloodynite/Zano came out in 2nd place earning 60 points, and 3rd place was hard to choose, but it ended up going to Afro/Gardex earning them 40 points. With the new points assigned, here is the current standings for the Smash Election:

1. Carls/Pavel - 260
2. Vermanubis/Diem - 200
3. Bloodynite/Zano - 160
4. AfroTwist VanillaPie/GardoTwist ChocolatePie - 120
5. Meek/Salem - 100
6. Eggz/BoJ - 60
6. Ivy73/HavocReaper48 - 60
7. Raffi/Sak - 40

This last competition will be the deciding factor in this contest! And don't forget about the points that will be rewarded for the winners of the Mascot Tourney (which I'll be announcing sometime this week). I hope all of you vote for the ticket you want to win this election, and I'll see you all in the next and final update.

Today's election day (for those of you in the US) and the staff here at AiB would just like to give a friendly reminder to those of you who can vote to GO VOTE!

We don't care who you vote for (heck, write in Capt. Falcon on your ballot... jk!) just remember, every vote counts!

While in the topic of elections, the Smash Election will start over on Thursday, November 6 so make sure you look out for the announcement and start getting support for your cause! A couple of changes will be made but those will be revealed on Thursday.

Here are a couple of those changes:
-You may run with a campaign partner (another community member) ... a "vice president".
-The election for favorite Smash character will be a completely separate election
-If you want your group to be featured on the Election Updates, it must have at least 15 members so go and rally up support!
-More to come on Thursday

P.S. - Go vote today if you haven't already!
