Firstly, the rules.

To place your vote, write "I vote" and the name of the person you're voting for. Try to keep chat to a minimum in this thread.

Only Regulars and existing Notables can vote, no newbies I'm afraid. Likewise, only Regulars can be voted for. You can't vote for yourself.

Votes will be accepted up to 11:59 pm tonight by the forum clock. Any votes after this time won't count.

Only one vote each. Anyone found to be voting under more than one account will have all their votes voided.

Edited posts won't count either. If you need to add/change something, make a new post.

Good luck. Voting starts... now!

I think you right to a point. But Monkey_man was trailing behind FFF and EB till the final hour when he recived a shed load of votes.

I didn't say I would vote against you, I just think the current system's better as this way it's generally a well-liked person throughout the forum that gets in, rather than some Nintendo gayby.

I had anticipated that reaction from you.

A thought for the next election...

Before anybody accuses me of being bitter, yeah, I am a bit, bite me ;-) Obviosuly tactical voting is and always has been an integral part of these elections, but it is also responsible for skewing the results somewhat. A couple of posters have said they would have voted for me, but due to the running results total decided I wasn't close enough to the leaders so they felt they were wasting their vote by voting for me. The mere fact that these elections are usually decided by someone seperating the two leaders at the end with a single vote bears witness to this fact.

In other words, unless you get a lot of people to vote for you very early on in the day, you don't stand a chance. Therefore, I would like to suggest voting, in the true spirit of democracy is conducted privately in future, with any talk of who people have voted for leading to the private votes being discounted. This is the only way we can have a truly fair vote.

Now, please feel free to heckle me.
