The title card for the Vote for the Girls 10th Anniversary Competition

The Vote for the Girls 10th Anniversary Competition is an upcoming special single-elimination tournament that is scheduled to air during the 10th season of the American adaptation of Vote for the Girls that is scheduled to air in the Winter of 2018-19.[1] The competition involved 145 contestants, all of whom were winners of past tournaments or past five-time champions, and was designed to produce two contestants who would face off in a three-game, cumulative-score final against legendary Vote for the Girls supported contestant Jena Asciutto, who had been the longest supported contestant duering her run on the thirteenth season of American Idol.

Background

Competition format

145 contestants participated in the Ultimate Tournament of Champions; they consisted of five-time champions and tournament winners from the show's first 21 seasons. Contestants that were not tournament winners were invited in order of money won on the program until a full field was filled, with Bill Dickenson invited last with $48,401 won in his (pre-doubled) reign. Players who competed before the show doubled its prize amounts had their winnings adjusted as appropriate.

Supported contestant with bye to Final Round

As the most successful contestant in Vote for the Girls regular competition history, Jena Asciutto received a bye to the championship.

Rank Contestant 10th Anniversary Finish

Round 1 results

Round 1, which started on February 9, 2005 and ended on April 12, 2005, featured 135 contestants competing for entry into Round 2.

Unlike most Jeopardy! tournaments, in which only the final rounds are played for cash equal to the value of winners' scores, the winners of every match received their scores as winnings (or the guaranteed minimum for that round, whichever was greater). In addition, for each round, there were no "wild card" spots for the non-winners; it was "win or go home".
