But now having JT enter the pity party is beyond delightful. This POTY season is shaping up to be one of the best ever. 2017 karma's revenge. I am preturbed. I am confused. Are you suggesting there is 'tactcal voting' at large? If you are suggesting that there are fishy things afoot then I'm reconsidering my whole position on POTY for next year. Roll on 2018, when I'll muster all the footy followers, or wine lovers, or phonphasi dwellers to vote for just one poster and we can share the winnings..

Jingthing Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) As someone that voted for Craig before, I cannot re-vote in this poll. I reckon that applies to all that voted for Craig. Like I said, FUBAR 2017. It seems to me that an inevitable Transam win is going to be an ASTERISK win unless there is an accommodation for the BIG MESS made by Craig dropping out. A one on one of the two leaders makes the most sense! Edited December 18, 2017 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seriously think that this has been done in a fair way? The rules were the same for everyone - i.e. irrelevant. It was a level playing field, and voters who didn't want blown away should not have gone with the wind.

JSixpack Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) We should post some representative posts from the leaders so that everyone may be sure what they're voting for (but of course, they probably are). I'll start off: 8 hours ago, darksidedog said: Beating the crap out of the very customers you need to generate an income is not a particularly wise move, which is I guess, why it happened in Thailand. Actually, it happens in other countries as well. But all Thais are stupid, you see. darksidedog was one our most virulent Tunnel Flooders (stupid Thais!). Ignored my request for a status update. On 12/15/2017 at 9:44 AM, colinneil said: What plonker comes up with this s++t? Every time we see a story about a dishonest taxi driver within 48 hours we get a story about an honest taxi driver handing over someones belongings, and it is always accompanied by the bit that it contained a large amount of cash. T.A.T. must employ story writers just to make up good taxi driver deeds. Typical. This nonsense is starting to become part of the standard narrative now, picked up by other posters.

Jingthing Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I think Craig ended with over 30 votes. Those 30 votes would have been DECISIVE if given to someone else. Scott said email him if you can't revote. We can't revote. Seriously, how many of those 30 do you REALLY think are going to do such an irregular thing as emailing a mod to vote, and even what percentage will EVEN KNOW that they can revote this way. This contest is totally corrupted now. It can be salvaged with a ONE on ONE final final showdown. Without that, the results are almost meaningless.

My gripe is how this entire "final" poll got corrupted and yes I already said I don't think he should have been allowed to exit. But he did, and here we are, and those over 30 votes WIPED AWAY which with the small numbers here would be decisive ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) I now call on TRANSAM to man up and do the right thing and join me in calling for a final final ONE on ONE contest between the two front runners in this current corrupted poll. That would have a lot of power if TRANSAM who will definitely win in this poll realizes that a win with a dark cloud of a large pool of DELETED VOTES isn't worth much. If not, is he afraid he won't win in a one on one? That's what people will think. Personally, I think TRANSAM would still win in a final final one on one. But if we don't do, we will never know for sure. Edited December 18, 2017 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what people will think. Wouldn't that request be slightly less embarrassingly pointless if it came from a candidate? Wouldnt a fistfight, or a drag racer, be more appropriate? Normally the challenged party gets to choose the weapons'?
