If Trans wins this year and gets knocked out of future contests it will make next years interesting. 

Well, he tends to get knocked out at most social gatherings.

I think we all need for Trans to win this year so we won’t have to listen to him sing anymore.  Clearly no one else wants it or needs it as much as he does and it would be just too cruel to deny him yet again.  I would be happy with third like last year but would not turn down second if it were offered.

 

I am extremely grateful to everyone who has voted for me so far but there are a few things I simply cannot do.  I can’t beg for votes, I won’t sing and I love my wife too much to post her picture on ThaiVisa.

Spoken like a true winner!

Trans might have 40 thousand posts, but VF has put in 40 years!!!!!

[geronimo]

For those who are still sitting on the fence, and need some convincing, here are some important things you should know.

 

The POTY award is for the poster who selfishly gives positive advice to others, and all the while remaining distinguished. There aren't many posters who are as qualified as VF, and even though he has stated many times that he is not bothered by the result, I feel it is deserved that he should win this prestigious award.

 

Note that VF has always remained upbeat and digging dirt is an alien concept to such a man.

They won't let me sing, a suspension warning has been given...

Thank heavens for that. My hangover is bad enough without screeching and wailing too

That's where we are different.....I am having fun on this thread, very few have heard me sing and so that's my fun side....As for Mrs.Trans pics, well she can be seen any time, anywhere during our daily life...The assumption that you lot seeing her is demeaning is crap mon ami...Her and I have no problems with you or anyone else knowing who we are or look like..

 

We ROCK ON......

I am surprised Jingthing isn't on the list, surely for the  biggest ignore list! 

 

Well he has my vote. lol

I notice JLC has only got seven dots under his name, wonder how he lost one?

I was penalized one dot for not being reasoned.

Jing won a few years ago and can not be nominated again, never.

Which is why we desperately need Trans to win this year.

Can I ask a question before voting in the 'finals'?

 

What do candidates think about soi dogs?

VF feeds them, and some candidates prefer to eat them.

We have a "soi" dog that looks like a sheep...

That's unfortunate as I'm not keen on VF and would otherwise FAR prefer to vote for transam .

I am just guessing here, but Dick Dasterdly had a loyal mutt (who had a sickening laugh), so my take is that you are pro soi dogs, in which case, vote for the man who keeps them alive!!!!

Trans has a mechanical dog, made it out of an old V8 that couldn't hack it anymore.

I live in an animal friendly zone where all animals live in perfect harmony.  We walk our sois spreading our message of love and harmony.

Sorry Transam, I generally like most of your posts - whereas I dislike many of VFs (assuming I'm not confusing him with a guy that lives in some remote place and posts derogative comments about everyone who dares to criticise anything about living here).

 

But I'm not about to vote for anyone who has no empathy for soi dogs or, come to that, any other creature that is desperately trying to survive in 'our' world .

Harmony with nature!!! Well balanced and appreciates that some living things require a little TLC. I'd vote for VF, but I already put my cross next to his name!

You must be confusing VF with another poster, as the word derogatory is not in his vocabulary.

[dick dasterdly]

I'm assuming there's going to be another thread with a final vote?

[sipi]

Naam also likes dogs, and Canulumuck (I can never pronounce his name)

Edit. And PG and others.

(Nothing against VF of course)

Liking them is one thing, but actually making their lives more fulfilled is a higher level of kindness and compassion, and I am happy to say that VF is on a mission to make all living things happier.

Ashamed to admit that I still don't understand why there are three voting categories , but assume there will be a new thread for final votes.

 

I rarely remember individual posters unless they continually post things that seriously annoy me, or that I like.

 

Naam sticks out in my mind as a 'good' poster, but he isn't on the list (as far as I can make out).

[geronimo]

Of course, I might be guilty of telling a crocodile how to swim, but all the candidate's post histories are but a few clicks away. Listen not to what they say now, check out their original responses to other posts,and also threads they have initiated. This is by far the best way to evaluate any candidate.
