yeah but one is a discussion thread and this one is meant for the people to say who they voted for and why.
Hey Nexus, high five!
Though personally I voted for that Randomwrath chappie. I mean, who wouldn't, what with his natural charisma and dashing good looks...

If only I had an accent.
Well, I voted for nexus because he took the challenge of performing for his friends while Wrath performed for his family which isn't more appealing. Liked both though and I wonder who's going to win this time.
I thought both were very appealing. Randomwrath incorporated his myth into the trick a little more, but i also like how nexus applied his myth to a routine he could do without the myth. I personally voted for nexus.
P.S.(Randomwrath) This had nothing to do with my decision, but it is not pronounced (mine-o-taur) it is pronounced (mi-know-taur). Just saying for future performances.

Hey, you say tomato and I say tomato (hmm, that really makes more sense out loud...ah well
). Thanks, I shall remember that for future reference.
Actually, I've heard a number of English people pronounce it mine-o-taur. Reason being that the original Greek word translates as "bull of Minos" so it is technically closer to how it was probably pronounced by the Greeks. The more common pronunciation of min-o-taur I think is a fairly recent adaptation of the pronunciation.
In reference to that, if one takes into the account the translation as 'bull of minos" then i guess the pronounciation would be (mee-know-taur). I'm just going by what my greek/latin teacher told me and what i have heard in the real world. I don't want to start an argument about it i'm just saying.
I just did a little research online, it seems that the only discrepancy is where you're from. Americans mainly use my pronounciation, and those in the U.K. use yours. No big deal.

Hey Nexus, congrats. 'Twas a good battle and I lost it to a good performer. But I'll still beat you next time
mythos
My favourite trick that involves mythology is Diamond Jim Tyler's Mythos I would like to see someone do better then that!
