First of all, sorry about the problems with the polls. Your votes did still count it was just that they appeared to show an error message when you hit the vote button. I've logged several support tickets to get this fixed. Today we will be using another polls service.
Congratulations to the The Economist and Walkabout for progressing into Round 2.
The Brackets Table has been updated with Yesterdays results. Only 4 people out of the 1086 participants have got all 24 picks correct so far. How are you faring in the Bracket? I'm currently 23 from 24 :) Remember, points scored in the 1st round are not worth as much as points scored in later rounds, so you still have a chance even if you have several picks wrong currently.
Below are the final percentages and the score in brackets is the % score from the bracket competition.
