Ultimate Jane Austen Hero Bracket: Final Results -- and Bonus Bracket!

You knew it would happen.  It is a truth universally acknowledged (or at least acknowledged by 59.2% of the 120 people who cast votes) that a young man with 10,000 a year and an estate in Derbyshire must be the winner of the Ultimate Jane Austen Hero Bracket. Captain Wentworth will have to pin his hopes on a carefully conveyed letter and his slow progress up the post captain list.

But as we watched all this come to its inevitable conclusion, MrsDarwin began to feel that something with a little bit more of a sporting chance would have been more diverting.  And what would give us that sporting chance?
