Scampy is pretty good, but I reckon CF's writing style is better.

I may be forced into doing an update, in a blatent attempt to get votes:P. I have'nt botherd much in fact the last update was about 6 months ago, due to crappy connections and a general feeling of can't be arsedness.

Cheeky's is probably the best and most consistent one there, pitty a lot of the old posts were lost.

Cheeky Farang's blog has made many a boring enjoyable.

We have made plans to meet, but time wasn't on our side (next time mate).

C'mon guys, who else has a blog that they want to get made known.

Fame awaits you.

I'm surprised - thought your support would go to the "people's champ" :o

Well life is tough, there you go.

A propos nothing: When banned, blog updates are unloggonnable

Thats not good for long-term blogwriting incentive.

Ok, I'll try to explain this slowly as you didn't seem to understand the first two times I explained it.

When someone publishes a blog, other members can rate it. One vote per member.

The board software keeps a running tally of the average rating.

I queried the board software as to which were the top five ranked blogs as rated by our members, as of the time this topic started. The top five blogs were the ones listed in the poll. I didn't play any favourites, I didn't vote, and I can't see how anyone could have a problem with that method. The board's members simply rated the other five higher.

Your blog is quite good, as are many others who missed out on the selection. The big difference is that they took it with a bit of grace. Don't diminish the well deserved attention their blogs are getting by making this a "poor me" thing about you. You aren't a victim here, you just didn't have the votes, accept it.
