Well today is not a fun one. I think for the first time all season, we have to decide who is eliminated based on speed.
In other words, there was a tie vote.
Per the original season 1 ruling, a tie vote will be decided by the speed of the votes. The last vote to be sent in will be canceled out, which then undoes the tie. We mainly see this issue occur when there are low numbers left. However, being too fast may mean that you can't recover if the vote changes. It's all about finding that balance.
[NOTE: all votes were received several hours after voting opened, it wasn鈥檛 very close between The last few votes]
As you can tell from the top of this blog, the vote was split 4 to 4.
Rather than just count down and tell you who is eliminated, I thought I could make it more suspenceful and read out the order of the votes. (If you want proof after the season of the order, I can provide screenshots)
Remember, this vote was 4-4, but the last vote sent in will be canceled out. Meaning that in the below vote reveal, the first person to get 4 votes is out.

. GUIGI........... your time is up
I will never forget you mailing me back around day 20-30 saying "I'll start playing harder once we hit halfway" and that turned out to be true. Your voting record and your loyalties certainly proved you right. However, I think the lack of playing in the first half is what made you unprepated to make it to the finals.
