    If Lurker23 and O_V are willing to do it and respond shortly, I don't have any problem with that. But I need to get the next phase going by next week, so there's not much time.

    My rules going into this were that there'd be two tiebreakers in case of a tie: initial nomination vote and an anonymous, random poll of five posters. Since all three nominees received 5 votes, I'm left to go to a poll unless Lurker23 and O_V are down with your suggestion and can comply in short order.

    I'll give it until Friday night and if we haven't heard from them by then, I'll go ahead with the poll and announce the winner on Monday. Congratulations to both Solid D and Pistons < Spurs on their Third Team selection. It's both a testament to the RTB mantra and the depth of talent SpursTalk offers these days.

    It really doesn't matter to me.

    I was just throwing out a suggestion.

    Do what you do 'Jack

    The way I see it we've got three options:

    1.) Carry on with the the second tiebreaker I suggested in the OP.

    2.) Find a compromise between the three parties, 'Tres' suggestion would be fine.

    3.) Have a one-day poll tomorrow that would (hopefully) break the tie.

    I'm open to suggestion and my only goal is to find the most fair solution.

    I am out of town at the moment, so I don't have time/access to do all the searching and copy/pasting to quote some of my old posts, but otherwise I'd definitely be game. Congrats to everyone involved, I'm humbled to be mentioned among such great basketball minds.

    The NBA would just have a Third Team that consisted of 6 people. They had a First Team All-Defense that consisted of 6 players a few years ago (http://www.nba.com/news/alldefensive_060511.html) and a First Team All-Rookie group that consisted of 6 players more recently than that (http://www.nba.com/news/allrookie_070508.html).

    If you guys are cool with 7 players on the Third Team, fine by me (a lot easier as well).

    I'm guessing that wouldn't bother the parties involved?

    FWD should be in the inaugural class of the ST HOF.

    I've made an executive decision in light of the brilliance that is FWD.

    Since this is a Blackjack production I've decided to make it themed as such. Since Blackjack is all about 21 and Vegas can't help but come to mind, I'm thinking jackpots ... as in 7-7-7 across the board.

    Solid D and Pistons < Spurs will be made part of the Second Team. The remainder of the nominees in this poll will be named to the Third Team with DPG21920 becoming the alternate -- he was actually one of the four nominees (jaffies, Pistons < Spurs and Solid D the others) to receive 6 votes to the others 5 during nominations, so he deserves to be an alternate or 6th Man for the Third Team (even if it's technically the 8th Man).

    That leaves 12 nominees left to make up the First and Second Teams but I'm going to only subject 11 to a vote decided by you, SpursTalk. The leading vote-getter received 13 of 21 votes and since he won that vote by 2 over his closest compe or and finished a clear No. 1, I'm rewarding him with First Team honors. Who that is will be revealed upon final results.

    If any of y'all have a problem with that, I'll direct you the new muscle I just hired. Just check the sig.

    It would bother me if I had to pay out a contract rider for all those guys.

    Typical message board GM. Of course you've got no problem spending everyone else's money but become reticent when it comes to you're own pocketbook. Typical . . .

    It's all good, Shoogar. I gots this.

    I agree.

    I personally feel that I should not be in this vote. Rather than being part of the All-NBA-Spurstalk inspired theme here, I feel like I'm more of the 3 point champion during All Star weekend. More of a gimmick than a 24/7 solid contributor. I just don't stack up well with the rest of the posters listed. I greatly appreciate the love I'm receiving in this poll. I'm glad everyone enjoys my photoshops. That's why I do them. I'm just feeling a bit guilty for taking votes from people who I think are far more deserving for their consistent takes.

    I didn't see the first and second team, but any first team without Solid D on it is not truly representational of the best posters at Spurstalk.

    Yes, the tension is killing me, Blackjack. Get the list out before I do something desperate.

    It hasn't been released yet and the vote was based solely on this past year. Solid D deserves to be part of an inaugural Hall of Fame class (and I'd imagine you'd find your way as well -- the SPAM post this year has to be in the running for POY ) and I don't think anyone would be bent out of shape had he been voted to the First Team, but the people voted in front of him are very deserving and worthy nominees based on their contributions for this year.

    The Second Team ain't no travesty.

    I'm conflicted. Would you do it on YouTube?

    What do you mean? Can you just announce it by setting up a new thread or post it in the RTB?

    Whatever that something is (and read post #116 to see how I'm doing the vote).
