It is now time for you to vote for your favourites.

To vote, please U2U me (Matt) with a subject of "Banner Comp", clearly stating the banner you are voting for.

The banner with the most votes will win the competition.

Voting Rules
#1. A maximum of 1 vote per person.
#2. Contestants may not vote for themselves.
#3. Do not cheat. We have mods checking if people are making multiple accounts.
#4. Voting closes Wednesday 2nd January at 11.59pm. Votes cast after this time will not be counted.

RED MOON will be acting as an independent adjudicator to verify the votes. Because of this, votes cast via a medium other than U2U will NOT be accepted.

The winner will be announced on Saturday 5th January 2008.

It's time to get voting - good luck to the contenders =)

Well Good Luck Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, good luck - you all deserve to win!

Voting closes tonight!

Voting is now closed. Results should be posted by the end of the week, pending approval by Red Moon.

Woooo not a long time till we know the winner !! :dance:

Did I miss this - or do we still not know?

Good luck to everyone if we don't. :thumbs:

Still waiting for clearance from Red Moon... if there's no sign of him by Friday then I'll ask another mod

Right, I'm just gonna go and announce the results and get a mod to check later.

According to my figures, which I have checked twice, the voting went as follows:


CathalOS - 0
Darenn - 0
Funky Sam - 0
Matt (One) - 0
Noel - 0
Retroman (One) - 0
Retroman (Two) - 0
Rizwan (One) - 0
Sophii3x - 0
Wasted - 0

andybigbro - 1
Ash - 1
Matt (Three) - 1
Rizwan (Two) - 1
Rory (Two) - 1

Matt (Four) - 2

MarkChap© - 3
Rory (One) - 3

Matt (Two) - 4
mrs_rko - 4


So this would mean that Matt (Two) and mrs_rko would have won.

However, there can only be one winner, so once I have a got a mod to triple-check the votes, I think the fairest thing to do would be to open up one final poll with the two banners competing against each other.

I think there actually can be two winners. Both meand Emilee (i think) won Banner Competition #5.

So it has... hmm.

Sunny_01 has kindly agreed to check the votes and she will get back to me tomorrow morning.

I can now inform you all that the votes have officially been counted and verified and the two with the most votes are Matt (two) & Mrs_rko.

Well Done Matt & Sarah

I'm gonna go ahead and say both banners won, on Sam's advice and to avoid wasting time on another vote.

Thanks to Sunny for checking the votes.

So... well done mrs_rko :wink:

Well done Sarah & Matt! :thumbs:

I made an award for both Matt and Sarah

So if the admin or mods want to use one/or both for there award they can do
