The greats of yesterday were indeed great. But this list contains some fantastically talented, brilliant performers.
And being on Broadway or not shouldn't be a deal breaker. Some of the most brilliant actors have never been on Broadway. Believe it or not, Broadway is not everyone's goal or measure of artistic success.
I'm on my iPhone and can't copy and paste (yet), so please add votes to Kritzer and Pinkins please.
kchenofan's computer is broken right now. This is her fridge. Now, you can leave a message, but say it slowly, so I can write it on a post-it note and stick it to myself.
Once an actress garners 4 votes, she is "safe", and included in the bracket. When this happens, please move the actress to the top of the list. Do not give this actress any more votes.

Here's how qualifiers are going to work: until tomorrow night at 8:00 EST, I will allow voting.
Therefore, it seems any votes past 8:00 on 4/18/09 are invalid.

Voting is over. Thanks to alll who voted, even the ones who didn't read the rules and kept voting for performers that had already recieved five votes. I'm deciding to be nice and count all the ballots that were submitted after the deadline.
Here's what's going to happen now. I am now working on the bracket, and will post it when finished. Each night I will post which two rounds are taking place (say, Audra vs. Sherie), everyone will vote, and the next night I will update the bracket and post the next rounds. In the event of a tie, the round will continue into the next night.
Say the rounds are:
Alice Ripley VS. Audra McDonald AND Sutton Foster VS. Kristen Chenoweth.
I will start with:
Alice Ripley - 0 Audra McDonald - 1
Sutton Foster - 1 Kristen Chenoweth - 0
You can only vote for one performer in each VS. Update the point total with 1 for each. You may skip one if you'd like. Voting will close at 9:00 EST each night unless I say otherwise and no ballots will be accepted afterwards.
I will edit the first post with today's matches and the current bracket, so you don't have to scroll through pages and pages. Bracket will be up shortly.
