Period Drama Hero Tournament!

We've come to know them... We've come to root for them... We hope they end up with the girl of their dreams (or that the girl will accept them)... Or maybe not, but they are still honorable and we love them anyways!

This is "The Period Drama Hero Tournament"! Where our favorite heroes and other male main characters from various period dramas compete for the coveted gold metal and title of "Favorite Hero".

Due to high demand and the success of the "Period Drama Heroine Tournament", the Hero tournament is underway!

How it Works: Readers of Elegance of Fashion will vote in polls. The polls will last one week, and once they're over, the winners from each poll will go onto the next round. The first round starts out with 50 heroes with 25 polls to vote in: each poll will have two heroes to pick from. Second round - 25 heroes and 8 polls (the hero with the most votes in Round 1 will have immunity in Round 2: if there are two heroes tied for that spot, they will be randomly selected). After the voting for Round 2 closes, there will be a three day poll to decide a wild card contestant from the already eliminated contestants. Third - 10 heroes (including the wild card) and 5 polls; each poll will have two heroes in it. Fourth Round - one poll with the top four of the five contestants will move on. Fifth - 2 polls and 4 heroes. Lastly, the final round will decide who wins "The Period Drama Hero Tournament"!
