owl sees all Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) I don't think the running, voting tally should be shown. It should be a bit secret and the totals only revealed after the closing time. I want to be in suspence.

Better take it out on here than the pet cat I guess Here's a photo of Hubby and Mr. Bitey that I posted the first year I was in the running for POTY, after other contestants started posting photos of their families. After the controversy this photo generated, it seems that Transam is the only one brave enough to post a photo of his (long suffering wife) Hubby with Mr. Bitey, my little family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dec 30th, assuming midnight but Scott needs to clarify. Voting twice was only permitted for those who voted initially for dead Dave.

I can never remember which it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we can only nominate three and it is well known that we gather here once a year. I think I nominated both Colin and Trans this year but can't remember. It's irrelevant anyway. Yes, you nominated the two front runners. Future nominees should keep that in mind as we seem to have a campaign manager who knows his stuff.

That will give the new winner enough time to go out and by the huge amounts of alcohol for the big party....or to tell everyone to Pee-off....like a real politician would do!

Thanks to the DMZ, an uneasy peace has prevailed for some years. But peas? Imagine the impact on North Korea’s economy. Citizens will no longer survive on a diet of government hand-outs of grass and small stones. Imagine ! Peas ! Frozen garden peas; tinned marrow-fat peas! Imagine the smiles on the faces of the populace - Imagine the wind! Peas trump peace, literally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He claims to have been to North Korea. Why didn't he teach them how to grow peas, so they could enjoy fresh peas? Nothing like fresh English peas and fresh Asian snow peas. Peas, peas, peas for all!

Voting twice was only permitted for those who voted initially for dead Dave. Au contraire! Only those who voted for Craig in the Finals got to recast their votes. Those who voted for Dave in the semi-finals (i.e. the under-appreciated Chiang Mai members) were thrown under the bus and left unable to vote when the powers-that-be decided to award Dave2 an "Honorary POTY". It's a statue that looks like a dog bone, because that's what they threw at him. The winner of this contest are, at best No. 2, as far as Chiang Mai is concerned.
