That's a tough one, but I'll give the nod to El Capitan in honor of Ansel Adams.

FOUL

(There I made it a little less intense.) Chain, y'can't vote for two questions in a row... just to give other ppl a chance.

I think this rule should be changed for the first round, maybe next tournament. The first round is always brutal! But necessary!

AS we're nearly there, do the rules change for the second round. It looks like there are some close decisions coming - does the best of number go up a little?

Aaah, rules not yet decided?

Best of 5 sounds good - think the re-voting restriction should stay

Alternative

as yours above

Do you want a best of 5 on that to decide?

I'm not voting, but just to clarify, I assume we're talking about the cathedral in Paris?
