Well we knew it was going to happen at some point, and that point just so happens to be right now! That's right, we have a tie(fighter)!

Before we get to that, we must bid farewell to Tooka18. You've been a fantastic sport and all of those judging have thoroughly enjoyed reading your entries. We definitely hope to see you again, in future contests or SmackDowns here on the SWF profile!

SoelleKhiss GlennKoerner & SongofLightAndShadow your collective scores were high enough across the board (in round 3 and the unplanned playoff round respectively) to guarantee you a place in the fourth round so congratulations, you three get to relax for a moment!

chris_hartley & Snowleopardcheetah you're tied for the final fourth round slot, which means we have yet another unplanned sudden death playoff!
