The 2nd Period Drama Heroine Tournament

Saturday, October 15, 2011

It's that time again! 50 heroines from your favorite period dramas will compete to win the 2nd Period Drama Heroine Tournament.

How it Works: Readers of Elegance of Fashion will vote in polls featuring different heroines from different period dramas. The polls will last one week, and once they're over, the winners will go onto the next round. All matches are randomly put together and do not have two characters from the same period drama (as long as it is possible).
Here is how each round will work:
1st Round: 50 Contestants -- 2 Contestants per poll -- 25 winners*
2nd Round: 24 Contestants -- 2 Contestants per poll --  13 winners
Wild Card
3rd Round: 14 Contestants -- 2 Contestants per poll -- 7 winners
4th Round: 7 Contestants -- 7 Contestants in poll --  4 winners
5th Round: 4 Contestants -- 2 winners 
Final Round: 2 Contestants - 1 Winner

* The contestant with the most votes will have immunity for the 2nd round. If two or more are tied for most votes, the contestant with immunity will be randomly selected.
