Feel free to take it from here Jingthing. I was glad to kick it off but really don't have the time to make 20 posts a day, or to change the rules every few hours.

It appears canuckamuck is truly and duly drafted. My condolences.

Thanks guys, but I am pretty busy at the moment and I am not available for the later hours (prime time) I get up pretty early these days. But here’s what I will do. I will try to establish this year’s format, and compile a few ongoing results. But I am expecting Scott or other mods will continue to oversee the action and be the adjudicators.
Here is the list as I see it so far. I have kept in the names of those who have asked to bow out. If it is an issue bring it up with the mods. We wouldn’t want to expose any MI6 agents by giving them some unwanted exposure in the press.
My name is also on the list, but I would like to opt out for the sake of neutrality.

Perhaps we let these nominations run until Tuesday night, the 12th. And then we need to have a runoff to pare the list down to say 6 victims. The runoff will be comprised of two lists (split from the original because of software limitations on polls) so the top three from each list should give a reasonably fair representation of the front runners. Unless the fourth place winner from either list is higher than the first place in the other list. In that case that person will be added as a wild card 7th entry. 
In case of a tie for third place on the runoff lists, both will be removed, unless of course they qualify for the wild card. In this case they will both be added to the final ballot as wild cards (fantastically unlikely though).
The runoff should end by Sunday the 17th and we can start the final ballot on the morning of Monday the 18th. I think the final ballot should close on the evening of the 23rd , considering that we don’t want this important poll to cause people to miss Christmas.
These are all just ideas, obviously the moderators will need to approve.

Given his condition, but the constantly accurate and humourous posts, you could just give it to colinneil right now.

Yes -- and all his young female helpers at the local BigC would say "Me too!"

While they might help him with a lot of things, posting on TV isn't one of them.

He will definitely be a strong contender but it is a tough list. A lot of posters on there that have also well earned their nom.

So, as all the runners have their numbers, and are jostling on the starting line ...... the young bucks are rearing up, ready to tear off the line, while the old hands are still buckling up their saddles, and haven't even mounted yet!

Well I think the odds of coming second three times in a row is against the odds, soooo you are probably right unless it's "forthe"...:stoner:

You will do just like the other veterans, and sit back, keeping the leaders within eyesight. As you well know, it's a long haul, and there's much dirt to be dug. Energy should not be wasted.....

Yes -- thus the word 'would' in the subjunctive mood.
