A "Touma" and an Index in, seems to be appropriate.

Nice to see some familiar names filling the brackets as well Hiamani are looking "ok', though not looking that well for the Nagi S - the Kugyama faction leader. Good to see Nodoka back to top form also, wonder if she will play "Warwick the Kingmaker in this years Game of Moe Enthonings". Good first-up results on the chunni front Rika topping the charts shows some strong support, this is sadly cannot be said for the Nahona faction and Combat Butler Group this year.

btw the cardbord delivery should be arriving in time for the main draw at least that's what I hear. So look out for your order to arrive soon, in the meantime avail yourself of last year's stock if you have any left.

Spoiler for Preliminary 1-7 picks:

Moe is still serious business. "My chest is maybe flat as a board, but my dreams are puffed bigger than a hot air balloon!". I prepare some high grade cardboard if Azusa don't win this.

...

I didn't realise Nozoki Ana got an anime.

Not that it mattered; it being just an OVA means the characters aren't going to get much votes. Moving on...

Spoiler for Preliminary Round 1 Group 7 votes:

I hope Azusa, Mashiro, Mihoko and Sawaya can make it to top 14 :/

Guys, there's no voting for today so I'm wondering will the code I just got it(0600h JST) be valid for tomorrow or will I have to take another code?

Top 4 are as expected, except Kyoko is surely looking for a revenge of last year. Mokkan is up there but not quite Nodoka level, yet.

On the other side, Tenri gets no love while it's sad that Kanna, being the best girl in TM, didn't get the love. Both should easily make it in 2nd prelim (Margin b/t them and the rest of the pack...), though.

With that, I'm 8-2-0. Having strong girls means I don't get to throw a vote to some unknown.

Although today is a break day due to server maintenance, I'll post my vote (or pick) early. This group is actually okay strong...

On the other hand, some of my choice I'm fully prepared to get burned.

If anything, last year was Kugyu's year (The "Big 4" are all eligible with two of them rounding out the 6 Saki girls in QF...not to mention the other 4 (Aria, Rotte, Tacos, Iori). This year only 3 of those 8 remains, and her most "moe" character is not eligible...(Hastur if you don't know who I'm talking about)

Yes, for her it is sadly a case of following 'The Lord Mayor's Show" this year. I think it will be very much an 'out' year with a weaker performance overall.

5-3-2

My Top 10 for Preliminary 1-7:

Spoiler for Preliminary 1-7:

Imai NObume, who got a little screen time in gintama, impressive

So anyone knows if the code I got at 0600h JST is valid for tomorrow?

If invalid, I don't know why will they dispense code if it's not a voting day -_-

@KanbeKotori, you will have to take a new code today. Codes are only valid for the same day they are generated. Sorry but that's how it is.

Now, for Group 7, I see something exciting already happening. Apparently, Azusa has taken the lead followed by Nanoha and Minami Haruka. And there's some gap between them and the rest of the crowd. If this is confirmed at the end of the match, and considering this group has the likes of Biri-biri and Captain, I find this development interesting.

Anyway,

Okay thanks.

Spoiler for Preliminary Round 1 Group 7 votes:

I hope Azusa, Mashiro, Mihoko and Sawaya can make it to top 14 :/

Well, I know I posted this before but will post again since I forgot the voting was today :/

I'm not really sure why we had a break after group 6 even though the schedule says break after group 8 but whatever. TOSHINO KYOUKO pulls through, what a nice surprise. Tenri and Chizuru not getting in breaks my heart, but it was to be expected.

Today we have an incredibly weak group with no strong characters. Yay. (no Mikoto isn't strong, it was tactical voting and you all know it)

Spoiler for Prelims 1-7 Picks:

Wow I didn't even have 10 characters I want for vote for. Yawn.

Anyone knows what happened to livedoor? It's still on maintenance -_____-"

EDIT: Weird thing happened. My Firefox says livedoor is in maintenance while chrome can access the page just fine. Anyone knows why?

EDIT 2: Nvm, figured the reason. My Nightly was storing an out dated cookie so I did a hard refresh and the problem is solved.

Results for Prelims 1 - Group 7

Spoiler for P1G7 Results:

Expected that Azuki Azusa topped the group.
Mihoko also did not bad in staying at top 5
No surprise for Mashiro and Mikoto.

A pity that Takanashi Sora and Fuwa Aika didn't manage to get to the main round.

Spoiler for Preliminary Round 1 Group 8 votes:

6-3-1 this round. Only surprise part is the fact that Izumi sneaked in, and the amount Azuki Azusa won by.

Biribiri is decent, but no fake or foreign votes (Dunno about the 2nd part) = nowhere as dominant. The white devil is still a force to be reckoned with, Captain held her strength, while we still have yet to see GuP being a force (But then, their "top gun" had yet to appear).

For next group, MadoMagi v. Saki, part 1.

My Top 10 for Preliminary 1-8:

Spoiler for Preliminary 1-8:

G8 has Eclair, Wendy, Hina, Mio, Homura and Leticia (you all should watch Mondaiji btw) so this group is pretty nice for me.

So the White Devil has returned.

So I think that's the first time this year that fakes have had a noticeable impact.

I don't think it was as spectacular return as some were hoping for. 2nd in a weak prelim group isn't that great. On another note, Kyaputen being 4th is probably an indicator that Sakimoe probably won't happen this year. I hope.

As for today...Oh boy here comes the return of Madoka. Kyouko and Homura obviously take 1st and 2nd, but Shinka's doing pretty well for herself. I did predict her as the hidden ace of Chuu2, so once we're in the main rounds we can see how that'll go.

As for picks, here are mine:

Spoiler for Prelims 1-8 Picks:

Oh boy I didn't realize it's Hina day! Even though I actually kind of like her in series I love watching her lose and suffer way more. Is 2013 her year?
