I know this qualifies as bitching over something that is meant to be fun, but after missing out for the second month in a row, after having the same score as those at the bottom end of the poll, something needs to be done in the interests of fairness.
Paul suggested an idea, that if any nominations were on the same score and went below the maximum 10 allowed, then all votes and that score got ignored, meaning a small poll, but those on the same score wouldn't miss out, based on the time their last vote was posted.
I don't know what you guys think, but I see it as a fairer option, than basing it on time of last vote, or in this month's case, alphabetical order.

The general concensus is that the first 4 of those 5 to reach their total of 7 nominations goes in. The remaining one is left to complain.

Maybe we should formalize the rules. Thus far, I believe we have: 1) Each poster gets three nominations. 2) Previous winners of POTM are not eligible for nomination. 3) A maximum of ten people are eligible for the final vote. In the event of a tie, all those with the tied score are discounted from that month's poll. Any more that are known? For example, what is the time/date when the nominations are opened, polls opened, etc? Anyway, I'll remember to at least nominate you next month, to make up for my heinous mistake  .

Originally posted by SB: Melllvar agreed that all of us on 7 should have been discounted this month, after me, Ricky and Zed missed out last month under this rule. So I accept he's forgotten the change he agreed to, but I still stick with the rule change come into next months and be written down somewhere. Since when did whatever I say carry any weight? What am I, a moderator? General consesus means that it's agreed by more than one person. Although I said that I thought that Paul's suggestion was a good one, I DID NOT say that it should be put into practice, and since I've already been slagged for taking this thing too seriously, I think that it should stay as it is. ...and you should learn to accept the rules as they are. We have had this debate many times before.
