neverdie Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Crickey this is moving fast, the votes cast will stand JT I think my threat to involve Gerben, Hampster and Wheel attorney's really made the difference. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I believe the intention is to reduce the runners to the top 4, votes will remain in place, those eliminated votes will have the option to re-cast. Charlie can you remove all the others bar the top four now please....then may the best one win! Let's hold off on that until I run some tests in a dummy poll. Not clear if members who have voted and the poll option removed if they can still Remove My Vote or vote again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 If I become Poll Lord I would have pure reset runoffs but the exact schedule would be set from the start. No surprises.

neverdie Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I'm not real happy about the alphabetical thing. Surely JINGTHING has earned the right to be positioned at the top of the pole ! Do I need to mention you know who again ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossfinn Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 I have given JT quite some stick in the past I don't know Nancy David, I believe to be a good guy, but I don't think he can win from here Costas has shown himself to be a statesman of late JT, because of the stick I have given you in the past, and I really believe you want it so bad, I will bring the remanant's of my Normandy command to your support.

krisb Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) I assumed he was intending to clear all votes and start a new fresh contest of four. That's the way runoffs usually work. Was I wrong? In either case it should not be done if it wasn't defined from the start. Sent from my Lenovo S820_ROW using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Don't panic JT....the top four will keep their current tally. It will just give other voters the chance to pick a favourite of the top four runners. Who knows what surprise may lie in store? So should everyone who didn't vote for the top 4 delete their vote now? Or will they just be able to vote again? Edit to add, too late, doesn't matter.

David48 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 If anyone's interested ... that Poll Lord Dr Who, Time Lord was an excellent episode.

Gecko123 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) Just to ask before Jingthing asks: Is there going to be another runoff after this runoff if there's no simple majority?

Popular Post Gonzo the Face Posted December 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 26, 2014 What a cluster F&^% this turned out to be..... If this were a country election, and no one had more than 50% there would be a runoff with the top 2 AND all voting starts from zero What now if the " chosen one " comes in 2nd, do we reduce it to the top vote getter and revote with that candidate starting with all the previous vote cast because he beat all others... ??????
