This tournament is flawed. OP and AVTAK both won their respective match up's yet are ranked lower than CR. Why is this?

CR has not won a tie. :?

I feel like we've torpedoed Casino Royale about ten times and yet it keeps rising from the dead like one of those zombies that can't be killed.

Shall we close the tournament then?
The groups that films fell into were decided by the votes of members here. But if you feel that the tournament is not panning out the way you'd like, is there any point in carrying it on?

As long as it is fair, I have no issue with the tournament. I'm bemused like many others that OP and AVTAK 'both' won matches, yet are ranked lower than CR.

Thunderball lost 9-0 in the opening rounds. I just don't understand how your working it out.

Clarity Mr Nash please.

I've tried to make the tournament as fair as possible, giving every film an equal oppurtunity.
But it would seem I've done it incorrectly in the eyes of some of the voters.
And although OP and AVTAK did win in the early stages of the tournament, they lost later on and have through the course of their matchups been voted out.
I'm sorry if that's not acceptable.
Therefore, I have decided to call the tournament to an end.
I see no point in continuing. I'll admit this was the first tournament I have held, seems I've not applied myself correctly.
My apologies.

To be honest Nash, you were never onto a winner with this one, as everyone here has the knives out for CR and Craig, so no matter what Bond film you put it up against, the level of bias here would have determined CR lost at all costs, regardless of which Bond film it came up against.

Yet most Bond fans elsewhere would rate CR in their top 5 Bond films (along with the classics such as FRWL, OHMSS, etc.) Here, they would ensure it ended up right at the bottom of the pack, behind the likes of DAD and AVTAK.

Oh go on, finish the tournament! We are only joking. I was looking forward to seeing the top five. It seems a shame to abandon it now after spending all that time on the competition!

I'll vote for Tommorow Never Dies.
Bring back Bond!
