Best Player not on Chain Game

Fun stuff from Poz.  This would be quite simple to program.  You create 100 threads, all starting with the same 15 names.  Someone logs in, gets assigned a thread, and has 60 seconds to put in a name, and then the next person in queue gets an awaiting thread, and he puts in his answer.  This way, you’ve also got some open thread.

You compile the results, and bam, 8500 votes later, we’ve got Poz’s answer.
