How do you figure? Each picture gets the same chances. Do you think that the picture that loses in the first vote will beat the winning picture in the vote off?
If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.
