A little bit about the contestants:

Upstart S. Baker represents the trans-gender movement of America. His fearsome battleflag, trademark afro, and high-cut shorts have paved the way for many advances in genetical manipulation and drug manufacturing. With the rise of his cult, the orange potato has become a revered object in many underground cultures surfacing around the globe. The S team has made countless donations and relief efforts to aid victims of discrimination worldwide. However, its not all chocolate and roses for the S team. Recent discoveries seem to implicate S. Baker in the initial terrorist attack on the NI-Train 372, which would indicate he was responsible for the deaths of many innocent idealists and place him in league with Nazi Memorialists.

Not too much is known of challenger N. Baker. From the depths of the Chinese Mountains, this hero has surfaced, fighting to preserve the honor and integrity of his people. Akin to the ancient Babylonian King Hammurabi, N. Baker has taken on the ideology of "eye for an eye", in reaction to numerous atrocities committed against his people. To symbolize his dedication to his cause, he forcibly removed his left eye after mistakenly blinding a laundromat attendant by spilling bleach. His eye is now carried with him everywhere, attached to a golden chain, it has become a symbol of the New Order he seeks to establish. His success in this tournament depends not only on his own ability to make a soufflé, but also on how much interference the Chinese Mafia will be able to provide on his behalf during this epic showdown in Kyoto, Japan.

So now, ladies and gentlemen, in an American Idol fashion (without the pre-rigging), it is up to you to decide who wins the Iron Pin in this once-in-a-lifetime legendary Battle of the Bakers.

I think it's obvious, S. Baker is the clear-cut winner. The NI-Train was carrying some key Chinese Mafia officials; it'll take them awhile to regroup and have much effect on the conflict.

And I think your histories are skewed towards N. Baker. You don't mention, for instance, the accusations that N. Baker actually stole the chain from the laundromat attendant. Those kind of rumors can really take a bite out of a leader's popular support.

Our investigations into both candidates involvement in that incident are still ongoing.

The letter S really pisses me off sometimes, so I vote for N. Baker.

Since S stands for Slovenly and N stands for N-telligent, N. Baker wins.

So far N. Baker is winning. I wonder why?

He's from the Chinese mountains. That's as far as I got before voting for him.

I have yet to vote.

In fact, the probability of my voting in this topic before it is locked is something like 10%.

I think people are turned off by the transsexual part of S. That's why I voted N.

It really does make it a biased fight, but the contestants' descriptions are based off of the people they're meant to describe.
