Ezen Baklattan Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 Now that nearly every vote has been counted, I'll reveal a few clues: Spoiler 8 spots are left to be filled. With 13 extra categories, most of the nominations you have seen above will be nominated. But which ones? One category is pretty much decided, regardless of how Bastien votes. Another is WAY too close. Each option is separated by exactly one vote. 5 votes separate first and last in one category, versus a whopping 13 votes in another. In the event that Bastien's vote creates a tie, I will choose randomly which one advances. To avoid bias, in the event that a tie contains one of my own films, I will choose the other film. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
