I know no one will believe me, but the JEW/Hitler pairing was completely random.
The brackets will work like this:
Rather than give someone a by in the semi-finals, the final round will be a three way dance. The matches will start on Monday, with one match per day. Each match will get its own thread. When your match begins, you may campaign for votes within the thread and tell people why you should win the battle; I will campaign for the video game characters. When battle ends, the results will be posted in a results thread and the battle thread will be removed to avoid board clutter.
