Mollenhauer / Langerak / Tanney / vd Fluit - actually a hard choice for me.  i used to have a lot of chats with all of these guys except aron.  in the end, i went with Moly.

Weatherton / Zarro / Duijvenboden / Leeuwen - another tough one, but this time cuz i dont really know anyone in this group except by reputation.  i went ahead and gave my nod to weatherton, just cuz i'm not sure he'll get a lot of love otherwise.

Glen / Vanderwouw / Van Zanten / Bertovich - this seemed like it was going to be a hard choice at first, just due to the fact that all of these guys are pretty awesome.  matt and i though.... aside from stacy, we're pretty much the only guys on this board that have played DKR and played it pretty hard in recent years (i know penev and a few others played, but that was like 10 years ago).  so in the end, easy choice.  matt v got my vote.

Stellmacher / Lecoanet / Di Vano / Holmiere - as sexy as Boomer's RR WR is on MKSC, had to vote for Flo.  he's one sexy mofo.

Voted:

Karel (easy and obvious for a longtime SMK friend and great rival)
Langerak (the only one I met IRL, and he's a nice guy!)
Patricio (related to the MB only, I find him nice and interesting)

Last vote was the hardest. Both Seb's rock, one is a longtime friend from the French community and I really appreciate this guy, the other is one of the best all-MK players ever and he would have deserved my vote for his recent MKSC RR amazing WR. But then I had to choose between my eternal and best rival Angelo, and Flo, the biggest cocksucker I've ever met If Flo hadn't been French, my vote would have gone to Angelo for sure.

Boom3r (obvious vote for me)
RVZ
Inviso (MKW vote)
PTanney

Mollenhauer / Langerak / Tanney / vd Fluit - vd Fluit, simply cos hes a great friend of mine
Glen / Vanderwouw / Van Zanten / Bertovich - Matt V, seems like a generally cool guy on the forum
Stellmacher / Lecoanet / Di Vano / Holmiere - Lecoanet, THE superstar of SMK

^yaahhh. This is dedicated to the kart community. I'm on holiday's in crazy dutch pr smash virus land. What I have to say is Kart isn't a game, its a kind of religion. Every single member of the kart community does not play to have fun. Its a kind off drug, watching the ranks, seeing other people improving and getting the feeling to play kart not to lose a rank.
Playing Mario Kart doesn't mean: shooting blue shells. One plays mario kart to get the feeling for ping ping ping.      

Pierre - Very hard decision. The SMK alien or the mountain yakk. Pierre is a legend in two of my favorite games (SMK and FFVII)... Drew is a legend in random stuff. I had to toss a coin for this one, and Pierre got my vote. Drew is prolly going to the next round anyway...
Tyler - Anyone who spends 200000 hours at the beach and doesn't get sunburnt deserves my vote.
Oneshot - Dude, both Michele and Nicholas are great guys, but I don't know them that much. Genghis is a legend, he's the best "random-game-which-name-i-dont-remember" player I've ever met. But oneshot is THE MAN, and we rule at inventing random card games to play in french trains.
Lacey - Another round of people I don't know except for one or two posts. In that case, I voted for the strongest name among them. The one I've heard of most times. The one I read more about. And the one who has a very sexy alter ego.

voted only in one round, for Dylan, since I'm sure Lacey doesn't need my boost, and Dylan is a pretty cool guy for finding new strategies at the stage MKDS is at this point

voted for tyler mainly due to mafia skillz.

voted zoran for the MK64 love.

voted oneshot for being a birthday buddy.

voted lacey for any number of obvious reasons.

KartSeven (I admire his dedication to kart)
TIM THE GOAT
Harvey (good all-around player)
Shock

I just realized I was supposed to vote for Shock but forgot his real name. >.<

This is the reason both threads I've campaigned in thus far I titled "Lundeen's", and changed my title under my username, and made lots of posts the last few days...

If I could vote in my own bracket though, I would vote Lacey. He deserves to skip round 2, if only for the sake of being Irish.  

Please be sure to remember my name in future rounds though!  

William Lacey for being a very iconic figure on these boards with a great sense of humor; also met him irl @ the SMK Tower, which was loadsa fun

Liem for being one of the founding fathers of this community (at least in my view), ex-NTSC SMK champ (I think, or at least he was the first sub minute on MC1) and MK64 legend...all that is enough for a vote anyway

Sean Oneshot Billingsley would get my vote over pretty much anyone in this contest based on his propaganda reels in the previous contest  

The decision between Pierre and Drew was probably the hardest one I had to make so far, but it just had to go to Pierre. Without him I'd be nowhere near as good in SMK, our duel lasted for years and was always fought in good spirits...truly inspiritational stuff  

William Lacey - Don't really know anyone from this group. Lacey seems to be a very iconic figure on these boards though.

Michele Magnaterra - Says what he thinks, despite how everyone else feels about the situation, and he is most often right.

Timothy Shelbourne - He's Tim, why else?

Raphael Segas - Always respected his MKDD abilities when I used to play the game and he used to dominate.
