    Default 2018: Overview of the results so far (Round 3)

    The 2018 Constant Reader Awards (CRAs) are coming to and end, with Round 3 polls opening each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from April 10 until April 26. Each poll will be open for 7 days and close automatically. In this face-off round, each book is measured up against another, with the winner receiving a score of 0.1 for each win in addition to its overall score previously generated in Rounds 1 and 2 (in the unlikely event of a tie the two books will split the score and get 0.05 each). The big winner will then be announced May 3!

    Wave 1

    Wave 1A: opened April 10
    Wave 1B: opened April 11
    Wave 1C: opened April 12
    Wave 2

    Wave 2A: opened April 17
    Wave 2B: opened April 18
    Wave 2C: opened April 19
    Wave 3

    Wave 3A: opened April 24
    Wave 3B: opened April 25
    Wave 3C: opened April 26

    I'm not certain it can take first place again this time. The Stand would need to get two more wins than It, Different Seasons, and The Green Mile.

    Standings updated. I can't believe after three waves both 11/22/63 and Pet Sematary would be 0 for 3 but here we are

    Funny enough it is only 1 for 3 but is still beating The Stand which is 3 for 3. Just shows how great of a book it really is.

    Standings updated. After the "Pet Sematary vs. 11/22/63" poll, with two books with no points, Pet Sematary remains the only one still at zero. Shockingly.

    Also, It has overtaken first place and The Green Mile climbed back up to second.

    Really surprised that Pet Semetary is seeming to be the least liked out of these 10. I'd personally probably rank it at number 2 out of this batch of books.

    So Wave 3C and the last five polls of the 2018 CRAs just went up! I want to again thank everyone for participating throughout the tournament, voting, and discussing. Thanks, everybody!

    Now just sit back, and watch the fireworks...

    Standings updated. Pet Sematary finally got a point, and even moved up a spot. The Stand moved up to third and The Green Mile falls to fourth.

    Sorry, y'all! Was out yesterday and couldn't update when yesterday's polls closed, so it's two for one today. Only one wave remains! The Stand has closed the gap considerably, but looks like it will forfeit its first place for the first time ever! The Stand is now in second place, up from fifth entering Round 3, but even a win against It in the last poll won't put it over into first. The Stand needed It to lose at least one more poll somewhere and It didn't. We'll know how it all shakes out tomorrow!

    And thus the 2018 CRAs conclude!

    For the first time ever we have a new champion and it is It!

    The Stand tried valiantly to climb back up from fifth place, and did manage to pull itself up into second, but could not stay there, and was deposed at the last moment by both The Green Mile and Different Seasons.

    This has been fun running this thing as always, and once again, thank you all for such great participation and discussion!

    Till next time...

    I wonder if the new-found popularity of IT has anything to do with the movie...
