Have you set a day yet for these to happen?

[Z]

Poll expires on Friday I believe, will take the final result from it on Thursday at some point!

[Benjamin]

Ah, cool. Had many more votes?

[Z]

Nope. Find it a bit OTT the number of people who keep posting about how they're not going to submit their list until the last minute. Just gives me more work to do and they're evidently not doing anything better if they're taking the time to post about how they're not doing it until the last moment.

just ban them from voting tbh

Bring the deadline of voting forward. That'll make them move.

[Samuel.]

Why the rush? I don't think many will actually leave it to the last minute. I'm yet to vote, but if you're going to give us two weeks to do it, people are going to use the full two weeks.

[Z]

I don't take issue with people taking their time, I take issue with people bragging about how last minute they're going to leave it - means I can't prepare anything in advance of the deadline because I try to include comments from every forum member that votes in at least some of their nominees paragraphs, and every vote changes the order so I can't even prepare the formatting in advance either - and it's these same people who then complain about how long it takes me to do the countdown on the night.

there's always going to be some members though that accidentally leave it 'til the last minute

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

i hope it isnt spread out over 3 nights again the suspense was unbearable last time

Yeah but those aren't the same people who have been posting in this thread and others talking about how they won't do it until later. It's not like this thread goes unnoticed

Thanks to the couple of you who voted last night, was nice to log in to votes this morning!

1st place is now only ahead of 2nd by 6 points!
1st place is ahead of 3rd by 15 points.

There are a lot of members tying on points at the moment so I'm hoping later votes will break up the table a bit because I hate having to announce joint positions.

[joeysteele]

I hope those yet to vote get their votes in to you quickly Zee, you obviously do have lots of other things you like to do as to preparation rather than just noting and collating the votes cast.

I hope that gets appreciated. You do a great event on this so good luck with getting the votes in.

Nice to see that acknowledged Zee. I for one, am of course joking about holding off till the last hour. I think it's pretty damned ignorant for people to actually do that to be perfectly honest - given the amount of work that's involved.

There are currently ties in the following positions

5th = two way tie
17th = two way tie
19th = two way tie
21st = three way tie
24th = two way tie
29th = two way tie
37th = two way tie
44th = two way tie

27th place, with a 10 pointer, would jump up to 15th place.

The top 4 are now all over 100 points.

49th and 50th have yet to pick up points in Round 2.

There are several 'big names' in the bottom half of the list.

I'd hazard a guess here at Shaun, Ammi, UKT and Niamh.

Last comment there....that's a sneaky clue. It could mean 'big' as in long user names - or big as in 'well known & nost popular' Spill the beans Zee...
