Volume II, book 6: The Winners

something was really in the air in these polls! i think it was the stench of death but i'm just spitballing

2.6

Hapgood tied with Beckwith and Donougher, but the latter won the runoffs. And a 0% for Denny. An auspicious way to start off a volume.

2.6.1

Exactly half the translators (Wilbour, Denny, FMA, and Rose) won exactly half the vote for "Petite Rue Picpus, No. 62". The 0% is taken by Beckwith this time.

2.6.2

Wilbour, Wraxall, Hapgood, Beckwith, and FMA won this one together, at an impressive 72.4%. The 0% for Donougher this time. This is getting spookeh-- which might be on theme for the convent?

2.6.3

Rather close, this one was-- but Wilbour, Wraxall, Beckwith, Denny, and FMA won out. And a 0% for Rose. A very odd pattern in this book so far!

2.6.4

Gaieties (Wilbour, Beckwith, FMA) has eked out a win over Gayeties. Gayeties fans you fought nobly, perchance the battlefields of waterlao3 will welcome you. (No 0% this time, but 0.8% is awfully close for Donougher's "Gladness".)

2.6.5

Wilbour, Hapgood, Denny, FMA, and Donougher took this one at 83.3%. And Rose the 0-- what is up here??

2.6.7

Rose has an alliterative win with "A Few Silhouettes in the Shadows" at 37.9%!

2.6.9

It was a tight race, ending in a very respectable 48.1% for Donougher's winning "A Century Under the Veil"!

2.6.10

Another close one, and another win for Donougher with "The Origin of Perpetual Adoration".

2.6.11

A third Donougher victory in a row, with a third of the vote! I also find it interesting that the first and second place were the newest and the oldest translations, respectively.

Tallies:

Wilbour: 5

Wraxall: 2

Hapgood: 2

Beckwith: 4

Denny: 3

FMA: 5

Rose: 2

Donougher: 5

Well that was an odd book! Lots of close matches and lots of zeroes.
