Board 8 > Tom Tens Day 98: Playoff runnersup

(+) Yeah! (+)

I tried to figure out a way to make this an even ten and I couldn't and it bugs me :\ Nevertheless! Here are the 9 2nd place finishers from our playoffs so far! They all came up just short of the finals, but a second chance begins here for one of them!

Welcome to the Tom 10 project, where I do a top 10, and you vote on your favorite! Ground rules:
-No stuffing or other jerkiness
-Polls last at least 24 hours, and will be started and closed at my convenience.
-Nominations are welcomed, but I will veto anything I don't know well or that somehow doesn't fit with my other ideas. Or if I just don't feel like if for whatever reason.
-Feel free to gripe about snubs, but don't expect me to change the poll or results unless it's something I legit forgot.
-These are my top 10's, and they're roughly in order on the poll. I won't vote, but I will break ties.
-Help bump please?
-This is not a super serious project and I don't want drama.
