With all the Notables behind him pb is duly elected.
There was a close-run battle between Wookie Monster and Time_Warp with some dubious votes on both sides.
The votes which were disqualified are:
Robbie Williams vote for Dan2K1
Mech Warrior's vote for Spider
Munkey2001's vote for Dringo
semajal's vote for &^£something
Titan Warrior's vote for Time_Warp
MJSwerve's vote for Wookie Monster
Cal2K1's vote for Time_Warp
FREAK's vote for Dringo
Mech Warrior's vote for Time_Warp
Dringo is Dead (Freak of the Mr Dark)'s vote for Tony
ssxbro's vote for Wookiee Monster
Dav1d's vote for Time_Warp (voted twice)
Dav1d's vote for Seifer (voted twice)
Big Slow's vote for Time_Warp (55 seconds late)
In addition there were some concerns over absentee Newbies returning to the forums just to vote. These include my wife Fate. These people had the right to vote so they are allowed - and when totted up between the two main contenders they appear to equal each other out exactly! I would have done a little more research on this if I suspected that the outcome was affected.
Although semajal did make a spoof vote I accepted his apology and allowed his vote for Time_Warp.
With all the above in mind here is my final count. I apologise for any mistakes. Clearly some of the lower runners suffered a loss of votes due to people voting tactically for the main contenders.
Wookiee Monster 17
Time_Warp 15
Goatboy 9
pb 7
Dan2K1 7
Your Honour 5
Dringo 5
RastaBillySkank 4
Seifer 3
Turbonutter 2
New Jimmy 1
Delta Java 1
ShockTrooper 1
SnoopDoggyDan 1
jd99 1
In future only regulars will be allowed to vote. With this in mind I totted up the count of regulars for Wookiee and TW.
Wookiee Monster 14
Time Warp 9
The result measured this way is much clearer.
Commiserations to Time_Warp who mounted a spirited challenge, but Wookiee clearly deserves to be the winner and he will wear the burden of a gold name from tomorrow.
Thanks for Voting.

Yeah, hope all goes well Tony. And thanks for the vote that I'm sure you'll give to me next time around.... :-)
Thanks for the kind words Ant.
I'd also like to thank my mum, with whom this wouldn't have been possible. My brother. My dog called Eric. My cat called Eric and my Orangutan who's name is clifford.
I'd also like to thanks my pet clam, called Stafford an-
What do you mean I didn't win? Eh?
Oh....., er sorry about that, it would appear I can't read.
Damn.

Hi there Tony, how come there are no winners announced from Saturday and Sunday yet. Is it my terrible computer? Also what are you doing up do late, please tell me your not working.

Yes!! Brilliant!! Exactly the result I wanted.
But commiserations go to TW, YH and Goatboy, who were all worthy contenders.
I'm really glad pb got to be a Notable, though. Superb-he deserves it.

By the time we have too many, it will be 10 years from now.

No, lets go for notableaday. Why not? Seems like a great idea.
Or how about this:
If you are on the forum between midnight on Jan 1st 1999 and Dec 31st 20(tbc) then you become a notable.
If you do not satisfy this condition, then if your name is either Dave, Fred or anything else beginning with any of the letters A-Z then you are now a notable.
If you are in fact a different nationality or species that either has no names, or different letters, then you are not a notable yet, but will be next month. (Or next week if we decide to).
