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.

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.

If I become Poll Lord I would have pure reset runoffs but the exact schedule would be set from the start. No surprises.

I wish you had said that from the start. Can't read your mind.

I'm a democrat JT.

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 ?

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.

But please stop whinging, it is yours to take

Could you please address your concerns in writing to the legal counsel @ you know where

Think pink polka dots and matching lipstick David!.....oh and a handlebar moustache!

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.

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.

Vote 1 - JINGTHING !

Tywais is checking that now.

Thanks and kudos to him.

If anyone's interested ... that Poll Lord Dr Who, Time Lord was an excellent episode.

Makes you almost believe that dreams can come true ...

JT ... do you ever watch Dr Who ... you too can then believe one day ... dreams can come true.

Yes, in the spirit of fairness.

Just to ask before Jingthing asks:

Is there going to be another runoff after this runoff if there's no simple majority?

I'm sorry, but this is giving me the runs.

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... ??????

Its a straight run to the finishing line from here.

Hence why I suggested narrow it to top two and be done with it.

Poll Lords shouldn't be eligible.

Maybe next year when you are no longer Poll Lord.

He does have a point you know.

Hey ... breaking news.

These past 48 hours, I've collected 1 more vote.

Sir, or Lassie, you truly are a wise and discerning member, and I warmly appreciate your Vote.

Gentlemen ... I have momentum again.

Jingthing, current Poll Leader ... I now have you in my sights ... I'll be coming from behind you.

He does indeed.

Something to consider by the NEW Poll Lord for NEXT YEAR, when the precise rules and schedule of elections can be set from the START.
