I know what I have to do but I don't know if I have the strength to do it.....

WillyWonkz

Lake city for the win since cicada was robbed

Bazooka Joe

The Lake City Hit Men, step out of the puddle of Squonk to cross Dyatlov Pass, will they survive?

DrPrattMC

Heated match up… very hard choice to make.

Zach, Babyhands.

Lake city all the way, it started everything that is red web 🕸

Chase Baldwin

Lake city quiet pills is the winner in my heart no matter what. It proved that the idea of Red Web as a podcast works, and to this day one of the most fascinating peak behind the curtains of an internet mystery. Both are great but I give it to Lake City

renwes

Lake City to the end, baby!

Jacob Hoover

My champion is..... SQUONK! Get squonked ☢️ On a more serious note Dyatlov Pass wins it for me. Both are so solid and are Red Web staples, but it just hooked me more!

Brandon Newton

Man both of my loves in the final round, but I know the hard choice I have to make 😪 Lake City for the win

Lyn

This was such a difficult choice, I stared at the poll for minutes before casting my vote. As much as I love a good mystery with no real answers, Lake City Quiet Pills takes it for me. With out that rabbit hole of a mystery we wouldn't have this wonderful show, nor would the Dyatlov episode exist. Great job task force!

GASE0US CLAY

These are both Squonk Tier mysteries. But, LCQP put Red Web on the map… so, it has my vote.

Courtney Brothers

I’m still reeling over the fact that Dyatlov knocked out Cicada. Time for Lake City Quiet Pills to take the win for all internet mysteries! 💪😤

Stephen Helms

Skunk ape concedes to Lake city. He does not wish to take the pills and therefore offers full support

girder

I am so glad that these two made it to the end.

Melanie Adams

Oh Were we supposed to be able to see the percentages?

Santiago Rodriguez

Even though it knocked out our Lord and Savior Squonk, my vote is still for Lake City This has been such an amazing idea. Being a fan since the beginning, it has made me re-listen from episode 1 to now! Thank you guys for everything you do!

NamelessSoul

Oh man. Lake City is the OG but Dyatlov was one that really sucked me in. How do I choose

Angela Rose

True favorite vs the first that got me to follow red Web at all. Tough choice but gotta go Dyatlov

Milkasaurous

Trevor....you'd better say that The Jersey Devil wins....you'd better do it...I swear, if you say that Lake City Quiet Pills wins...ooooohh, Trevor, my sweet Summer child. (And you'd better make sure he does, Alfredo. The Jersey Devil doesn't discriminate when it comes to food).

TheRegulationGlove

I have listened to Lake City Quite Pills literally countless times since it first aired. It's always a good listen and how you present it is fascinating. Absolute banger of an episode.

fancyhazmatsuit

My middle school band director introduced me to this podcast years back with dyatlov pass and I’m going to FREAK the freak out if it doesn’t win :(

TheWolvesGather

I’m just going to pretend that John Titor won.

Red Web

In some new timeline that he created, he always wins

Red Web

Shoutout band directors!

Red Web

Thanks Santiago that means a lot! We've had a lot of fun doing this with you all

Red Web

It's how Patreon does polls. Not ideal, but HEY! Now both sides know how hard to fight haha

The Glimpse

We all know it's rigged. Squonk won as was always meant to be!

AsteroidWalnut

I absolutely love Dyatlov Pass, but going up against the OG... Such a hard choice. Ultimately I must cave and it's Lake City for me

Mr. Nom Nom Nibbles

I knew these two would make to the end but I didn't think it would shake down like it did!

CaptianMben M.D.

Mothman will be avenged.... Mothman is life✊️

Weiss Belladonna

This was so much fun! Can’t wait for next year’s Tournament!

Demoet

Since I've said my piece on what I'm voting. I'll let Trevor know he's always pronounced my username right! Much like a cryptid, I leave my name's pronunciation up to interpretation. So far I've really enjoyed these ones. Dem-moe-et De-moe-t (with a very hard T) De-moat Dem-Oat

girder

I know which one got me onboard this podcast. No contest.

Melanie Adams

Aw next year I'd rather the google forms style! I like not knowing until y'all do your recap and this round should be the BIG REVEAL

Juba2

While I wish it had been Cicada and Lake City here in the finale, I knew there was a 50/50 chance between Cicada and Dyatlov and it was a honorable win on Dyatlovs side. But there was no question on which to choose now as the first public episode with Lake City was a banger of a start and will always have a special place right at the top.

NixieShimo

Lake City Quiet Pills HAS to win it. I mean, Dyatlov Pass was 'solved' with Disney snow?!? How Lamesome (lamely awesome) is that!! I need to see Dyatlov bleed for taking out Cicada 3301 and I need to see the OG episode take the crown!!!

Tyler H

Justice for Squonk!

Eyebones

Dyatlov was one of the first mysteries I rewatched often because of how entertaining and interesting it was, but voting against the OG is unthinkable so LCQP gets my vote this time!
