I think you should treat a serious competition like Poster Of The Year with more respect. Even if you don't like the turn of events, it seems clear that this year's competition has been run carefully to avoid any hint of impropriety, with departed candidates and former mods ruled out. That seems only fair, and anyone that found themselves 'offside' so to speak can fairly take no further part in the competition, You don't get to vote again just because you voted for an inelligible candidate. People have to take responsibility for their own mistakes, and their own stupidity, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, they are condemned by the quality of their spokesman, who said Ï speak for ALL...", if I recall correctly like. At least the British government gave Gerry Adams the benefit of having his words spoken by an actor. If only you had done the same... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there is a one on one final final ... or other practical solution to deal with the disenfranchised voters and no PMing a mod with revotes is NOT that. Ciao!

He should've got behind a credible candidate who had a track record of successful campaigning and compliance management. To be honest, if craig had been allowed to manage his own campaign in the 'softly, softly, catch the monkey' manner that he was doing, he might have managed to make a good showing of it, despite sailing a bit close to the wind eligibility-wise.
