For those of you who haven't voted yet and need an update, as of 10am today 100 votes had been cast.

 

At 4pm local time 109 votes are in, meaning a massive tally of 9 votes in the last 6 hours, or a weighted average of 1.5 vph (votes per hour).

 

....well, come on, someone's got to do the Jon Snow bit, now where's that swing-o-meter (with apologies to our American cousins who won't have a Scooby Doo what that means).

 

 

There are round my place.....

Bit like that big gray animal with big ears and tusks.It's irrelevant.

 

But I know that when you "win" you will man up and hand over the accolades to the guy who would be POTY but for Trump like manipulation.  

In my opinion it is wrong to discuss stuff based around a deceased guy...TVF decides what it wants to do regarding our Christmas fun.

If you want to discuss it in the new year then I will participate...

Really? You won't like this then:

 

What a coincidence . . . I used that very track, some time ago now, when my burglar alarm's bell broke. Was able to switch off the whole system . . . once the word got round. Yes, scary stuff.

You think it was TV's decision? Ultimately yes- but!

 

Anyway, this thing concludes 10 minutes after midnight on 1st January I believe?  So you can do the right thing next year.

To clear the air....Craig, Colinneil and myself have known each other here for many years..The three of us am sure would sit around a table and chat...Win or lose we would all have a smile because you lot like what WE do on TVF......We rock...

But only one will wield the crown, the scepter and the huge power that it encompasses.

Any chance we can have a countdown clock running?

No, the actual minute of closing will be a closely held secret.   Vote early, but don't try to vote often!

The General Topic frontpage is frozen and hasn't uppdated, still showing this topic as on page 18. Looks like TVF website is about to crash due to the amount of traffic with people trying to get their vote in. The advertisers must be cock-a hoop.

As this competition heats up, the entire internet is in danger of crashing.

Just a quick check here mods/admin guys....all the finalists do actually live in Thailand, yes?

We have subcontracted the background checks to the FBI, CIA and MI6.   The NSA is in charge of tracking ALL internet postings and IP addresses.   Anybody caught doing anything out of the ordinary will be severely prosecuted.   Being unusually wealthy, however, will get you a free pass....and a lot of friends.

109 votes cast. Wow! Could that mean that millions of TVF posters find this eighter
- silly
- pointless
- useless
- meaningless
- boring
or all of the above?

I have consulted with my favorite "Mama San". She is a bit "feisty" and outspoken and she said: "When Farangs stop chasing girls, they start doing strange things to pass the time!"
Cheers.

We are now waiting on the returns from the POWER BASE of all Thailand -- PATTAYA.

Craigt3365 is the hometown hero there in the sense that Craig's hometown is somewhere and a hero is a delicious sandwich.

It's well documented that Craigt3365 has never bashed Pattaya!

I went to Hero Market for coffee today, after going to the wet market.  I didn't buy any hearts.

[Jingthing]

POTY contests are always won or lost based on the PATTAYA vote.

 

[StreetCowboy]

POTY is too long for a three-letter acronym.

PATTAYA is just taking the piss.  What does that stand for, anyway?

Hmm.

I'd say family values and Craigt3365 !

I think it is the software they are using which doesn't allow for changing and resubmitting on a setup poll.

 

They changed that because previous years they had a hard time to rig the outcome of the poll.

 

Will be much easier this year

[Jingthing]

Is there support here to DEMAND a MANO a MANO final-final battle between the two front runners? Obviously, Craigt3365 and  Transam (Little Hot Rod Man). I'm asking now when the best man Craig is still behind. It seems like a good deal for Transam now to not have to compete in a one on one,  but at the end of the five person race it might not be.

How can we know the REAL PEOPLE'S choice if all the opposition to the winner is split four ways? 

The only way  to really know the most popular choice is ONE on ONE!
Agree or disagree?

That is totally false. There was one year we don't talk about that was suspicious, but being able to change votes obviously makes it much easier to rig at the end than not! So you've got it bass ackwards.

Now. But it's closer than you think and Pattaya is still to be reckoned with. I'm supporting it either way.

Do the calculation.

 

In previous years the winner  might have needed +100 votes, and all of them could switch vote at the last minute.

 

This year the one with 40 votes will win the contest, next year it will probably be only 15 votes, any nobody can change votes last minute.

 

I didn't count "them" lately but I guess it will be easy.

No, there was one year even a blind man could see it.

Yeah... old tutsiwarrior was suspended for a spell after the POTY champagne bubbles all got a bit too much for him.

aw hell...I wuz just overwhelmed by the accolade...when I tuned in the next day someone said: 'tutsi! wake up!...youse the POTY!!!'

 

and then I went on to be the only POTY to win and be suspended within 24hrs...

 

sorta like setting the piano alight and to say: ' beat that...'

 

 

the legend of tutsiwarrior...now reduced to bean salad recipes in the food forum...

 

 

[Luckysilk]

Okay let’s make this real.

 

JT spent a year proclaiming Madame President ....... we see he backs losers

 

I do believe Trans will be the first POTY from England so what they heck it’s time.
