The general forum, the BBC, Reuters, the KCNA...

As we have so many runners, why not have random groups of 4 and only the top 2 go into the next round?

That only really works if there is a seeding system, not the case here

Prepare it /post it and I will pin it for you.

[geronimo]

Those who are unsure of where to cast their vote, take a look at some posters details, members like OneEyedRaven and Bluesofa are definitely worth looking at previous posts ..... and Geronimo puts out some good stuff on a good day.

Bill, you ARE the truth...

Not really, but I do try sometimes. And I sometimes excel my self late in the evening when I have imbibed a little and find a post that gets up my nose.

I suggest to avoid any suspicion of skullduggery a person in the contest once the first vote is cast is eligible to receive votes and participate to the conclusion

[villagefarang]

Here are my predictions.  

 

Yinn by a landslide, Geronimo in a respectable second place and me far behind in third place for the third time.????

 

Yinn

Geronimo

VillageFarang

I think maybe you overestimate my popularity and underestimate your own, but a good call and we shall soon find out when the poll gets underway.

Just in case anyone wants to vote for any particular member, let's spell their forum names right, eh?  I'd hate to miss out on my 2nd vote.

[toofarnorth]

Weeks ago when Yinn first appeared I suggested POTY , then I thought a vote for Issan Biker.Now changed my mind and am going to give Yinn one.

Hi Geronimo,

You can take me off the list.

I do enjoy the banter, but that's all.

Thanks.

I don't bend over for anything less than one baht. 

Even If you find sam sallung ? 

It's a play on words;
Sam sallung is 75% of a baht ..
You think what you want ... 

you can and must do the approach with bababobo and ting tong

Maybe they could make Geronimo a mod just for this contest. But that would mean he can't enter the contest ...

Count me out!

Oh, I forgot.

I am out.

Well, let's see, a vote for YINN is a vote for me.

If you don't think that I should be POTY for life, then of course you must NOT vote for YINN. 

You really can't afford not to vote for YINN. 

If YINN loses the stock market crashes AND we'll all be deported!

Yinn has already made it clear that, whatever the outcome, she will just roll her tanks into the offices of TVF, send all the members to attitude adjustment camps, and appoint her own mods.

 

CharlieH will recount the votes and declare her the democratically elected POTY.

 

Villagefarang will be her deputy, but he will have to put on some weight for the role.

In the spirit of fairness and so that everyone would have an equal chance  I made a list with all the names hopefully spelled right.

I think we should make this the official list and have it pinned..
