The mention list could be quite huge if we choose it to be!
For example, this week 111 different teams were at least voted for once. So what Justin and I do is we look at the teams ranked 25 through about 45, and find in our "Totals" column on our spreadsheet where there's a big gap between teams in the 25-45 range. So for this week 201, 245, 359, 1023, 1126, 1503 and 1676 all fell close to the Top 25 (26th-32nd Rank). So the 33rd ranked team after that group of 7 was quite behind in number of votes. If you notice on the website for this week it says "55 Ranking Point Qualifier". So 201, 245, 359, 1023, 1126, 1503 and 1676 all had at least 55 Points). The 33rd ranked team this week had 46 Points. So that's where our steep drop of was this week. Each week the Qualifier number will be different based on the number of voters.
I hope that made sense- it probably didn't though.. If it's not let me know, I can try and clear it up some.

Exactly!
