LannaGuy Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) The ragging is OK. I'm not running this year for POTY. Or ever again. That's my campaign promise! I will continue to post a VOTING ADVISORY at least daily through the end of the poll. Not everyone is aware of the DELETE MY VOTE function and how that can make these contests more exciting, especially near the end. so will the 'delete my vote' be counted up? it acts as 'none of the above'? what if it wins? maybe, in future, it's useful if there is a 'none of the above' button?

canuckamuck Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I'd send pictures of our pets but the family keeps eating them. Are you in Issaan??? No in Chiang Rai. I live in a house in a village in a valley with a view... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) Null votes are being recorded. Delete my vote is not the same as null vote. If you delete your vote there is no vote at all not even a null vote. To record a null vote you have to actively choose null vote instead of one of the five grand finalists. This year there is no explicit none of the above choice. Don't think.that was done in the past POTYs either. I have already posted about -- If null vote gets the most votes.

SoiBiker Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I'd send pictures of our pets but the family keeps eating them. If you show yours I'll show mine. I'm looking for self-restraint in a Poster Of The Year -someone who can refrain from sinking to the lowest common denominator, abstain from bragging when lesser mortals crow of their trivial achievements. Someone that puts quality over quantity to the extent of silence.Vote Null - least said, soonest mended. SC Null vote does a lot of work for charity - but he doesn't like to talk about it. Vote null.

'delete my vote' is a null vote right? just seen it... it's not very clear I humbly suggest you might like to tidy it up next time?

Brit_Doggie Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Is this similar to what amuses the thais, because I cant see for the life of me the point in voting for anyone on here, unless of course they win a years vacation away from tvf so that we may enjoy a peaceful 2016.

Jingthing Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) Delete my vote is most certainly NOT the same as null vote. Delete my votes can't be counted. Null votes can. Null votes are counted by subtracting the total number of candidate votes from total votes. Delete my vote actions do not create a record in total votes. Choosing null vote does.

You have things the wrong way round. I was in the lead in the early stages, and I believe in third place with a decent share of the vote when I switched my support to Null vote. Since then I have been actively campaigning against myself, with considerable success! My decision had nothing to do with my position in the vote, and everything to do with the farcical nature of the contest. Null vote is the only sane choice. Vote NULL VOTE!
