I have votes from 11 people now. The only people who haven't voted are people who did not finish drafting.

Let me know when you want to cut off the voting and how many points to award first, second and third.

Rectified.
I now have 12 of the 16 potential votes.
Thanks for letting me tally these votes. It's been fascinating watching the results roll in. This thing is a barnburner. We may have to go to the US Supreme Court on this one.

All hanging chads automatically go to the guy who set up the draft.
We've said all along 3 points for a 1st place vote, 2 for 2nd, and 1 for 3rd, so I say stick with that... but I'm open to dissenting opinion if you make it quick...
Let's give the stragglers the rest of the afternoon (US-centric) -- bmurphyfl, thanks for tallying. If you wouldn't mind posting the results sometime tonight? In about 8-9 hours or so?
Thanks to everyone - after the final points are posted, I want to hear everyone list their picks that they didn't have room for...!
EDIT: bmurphyfl, would you mind posting the results in a new thread -- the "Official Post-draft Results and Discussion Yada Yada Yada Thread" and then lock this one down? Thanks...

OK. We'll keep voting open until 8pm EST. I'll then start posting results after my kids go to sleep. 8:30ish.

... For instance, I was very familiar with the Greig Peer Gynt suites, but had never heard the entire incidental music with the songs. Thanks to someone picking it (Norsk Troll?) I went to the library and found a great recording by the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Paavo Järvi - wonderful stuff!

Just to second Norsk Troll: the incidental music is fabulous and the best way to listen to Peer Gynt
