WOW that's a lot of selection! It was extremely hard to choose one that really stood out... they're all stellar and outstanding.

I agree with NewFlyer here. There are so many choices to choose from this time around.

Way too many for just one vote a piece to produce decisive results.

We should have been allowed to do more than one selection in the initial flagship poll, to even out the vote count a little.

I agree. Something like the October 2008 prelim voting where up to 5 choices were allowed would've worked better here.

I like them all, montage please???

Firstly, thanks to Scott for his work in setting up this ballot, with all the choices to cut/paste. Good work.


re the multi-choice option on the ballot, here's a link to the last time we did this, to see how it worked out. There ended up being a clear consensus of which the top-few choices were.
I thought that the multi-choice worked well for that month.

We'll have to wait and see how this prelim ballot's results show. There might just be 2 front-runners and then a bunch with < 2 votes each. I wonder if we'll even need a final-ballot? We'll have to wait and see the results from this one.

Hey, it's not perfect, but we do the best we can for this fun hobby....

The final ballot, rather than 10 choices, could just be restricted to those photos that end up with two or more 'votes'. Currently that would mean choosing between 6 photos on the final ballot. I think that that would be reasonable.

Yes, that is definitely the best plan.

Final vote will be up momentarily.
