Now onto the 4th Round...
 
Here are the 4 random quarterfinal matchups. Once again, just vote for your favorite character from each pairing.


1. Jadzia Dax vs. Jean-Luc Picard
2. Spock vs. Miles O'Brien
3. Kira Nerys vs. Odo
4. James T. Kirk vs. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy
 
1. Picard
2. Spock
3. Odo
4. McCoy


Number 4 was just painful, and brutal! How to choose?!
 
1. Jean-Luc Picard
2. Spock 3. Odo
4. James T. Kirk

Number 4 is one of the hardest choices I've ever made!
 
1. Jadzia Dax
2. Spock
3. Kira Nerys
4. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy

No easy choices there, that's for sure. Suppose that's the plan though, right?
 
  1. Jadzia Dax vs. Jean-Luc Picard | Jean-Luc Picard (I like Jadzia, but given that many people around here can't stand her I'm actually somewhat surprised she made it this far.)
  2. Spock vs. Miles O'Brien | Spock (I love O'Brien, but Spock is one of my all-time favorite characters.)
  3. Kira Nerys vs. Odo | Odo (Ooh, that's tough! But I think I like Odo just a little bit more.)
  4. James T. Kirk vs. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy | Leonard 'Bones' McCoy (That's not easy, either, as I love both of them. I go with McCoy, just for the heck of it.)

You got it. I knew that by this point of the tournament all the matchups would feature characters that, for the most part, we all love. I knew that doing random matchups might mean you'd end up with some good matchups earlier on and some favorite characters eliminated probably earlier than they should be (Ben Sisko, Scotty, Quark, The Doctor all out in the 1st round), as well as some characters hanging around longer than expected (anybody predict Reed and Hoshi to get to the final 16? lol), but it usually works out in the end.


Jadzia Dax vs. Jean-Luc Picard | Jean-Luc Picard (I like Jadzia, but given that many people around here can't stand her I'm actually somewhat surprised she made it this far.)
I didn't realize a lot of people didn't like her, but I see what you mean. She's been close to losing each round. She beat Guinan 7-5, Phlox 10-8, and Ezri 7-5. I guess she's a survivor. Not on DS9, mind you, but on these boards for at least another day.

Only after I joined the Trek BBS did I realize there were actually a lot of people who hate her character. So, while she's certainly not my favorite, I don't see what's there to hate. Oh, the discussions in the DS9 forum ... :scream: (;))
 
1. Jean-Luc Picard (I'm indifferent to Jadzia. I only vote against her when she gets ahead of Ezri)
2. Spock
3. Odo (The tough choice beyond all tough choices)
4. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy
 
1. Picard - sorry, can't stand Jadzia (and Picard is one of my favourite characters...)
2. Spock - well, that choice wasn't really a hard one, either
3. Kira - I like Odo, but I thought Kira really got an amazing character-arc within DS9.
4. McCoy - puh, tough choice, since I really grew to like Kirk in recent months/years when I rewatched TOS.
 
Jean-Luc Picard - easy
Spock - much as I love O'Brien, c'mon, this is Star Trek!
Kira Nerys -
very tough choice, but Kira was the soul of DS9 for me. And also totally cool.
Leonard 'Bones' McCoy
- nightmare choice, but I love Bones that little bit more.
 
1. Jadzia Dax vs. Jean-Luc Picard
- well I really like Jadzia, but Picard is the stronger character, particularly because Patrick Stewart is such a great actor. So, Picard.

2. Spock vs. Miles O'Brien
- with all due respect to Miles, he can't challenge Spock

3. Kira Nerys vs. Odo
- OMG, this is the hardest of them all! :( Two characters I love so much... but in the end, I guess still love Kira a bit more.

4. James T. Kirk vs. Leonard 'Bones' McCoy - Bones

So, in short, my votes:

1. Jean-Luc Picard
2. Spock
3. Kira Nerys
4. Leonard "Bones" McCoy
