Which of yesterday's losers is your favorite?




Welcome to the fifth day of Board 8's Favorite North American Subdivision! First, don't forget to take a look at our few quick, common-sense rules if you haven't already:
  • Alt voting is lame. Don't do it.
  • Editing your vote is allowed as long as you're not changing the subdivision you're voting for in a given match; preferably don't delete and repost your vote to correct a typo when you can edit it instead.
  • Matches will last exactly 24 hours - no less and no more, not even by a second.
  • If a given match is tied at that time, I'll run tiebreakers on subsequent days until one subdivision wins.
  • I reserve the right to edit these rules at any time should I have missed something or otherwise feel it's necessary.
  • Most importantly, I encourage you to help keep this topic bumped (especially in the PDT mornings when I'm asleep), tell others about B8FNAS, and generally have fun!
With that out of the way, here's the bracket: https://challonge.com/B8FNAS
And here's the results and discussion topic: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78882138

Now, let's move on to today's contenders and their matches:

Texas vs. Yukon

Both have southwesterly mountains and stretch over large areas, but that's about it as far as similarities go. Will this match be the next California/Nunavut?

Oregon vs. Utah

Two Western states of very different ilks, but both share fiercely independent cultures. Which will win?

Washington vs. Rhode Island

Both northerly states have notable islands that are merely minor components of their overall sweep. In a question of diversity versus density, which will win?

Tennessee vs. Maine

Tennessee isn't quite the southern end of the Appalachians, while Maine isn't quite the northern end, but both share that common ground. Will this match continue the Southeast's struggles?

Maine-Tennessee was surprisingly a real decision. As far as the South goes, Tennessee is fairly tolerable. But up against a New England State....

First two matches are basically just anti-voting their opponents, though Oregon is legit pretty cool and I hadn't even thought about the anti-vote aspect until after I voted. Good thing it wasn't Texas vs. Utah; anti-voting Texas was pretty instinctive for me, but if I'd put any thought into it, Texas isn't nearly red enough a state to overcome the awfulness of Deseret.
