TAFF 2014

THE RESULTS

100 votes were cast in North America and 39 votes in Europe. These raised a total of $1187.68 in North America and £266 in Europe.

The results of the first-place voting can be seen in the table below. The vote of one fan from the Rest of the World has been folded into the results from North America to preserve the anonymity of the vote.
