Doing our job for us Lugo

We'll get it all fixed up.

Congrats to the winners!

If there have been voting discrepancies then the results might be subject to change, just to let everyone know. This is a good time to remind everyone that both your votes must be used.

I like the feeling of knowing that this time it wasn't me that screwed up

**Scottish King** · July 10, 2014, 07:22 AM

Argh! I'll track down the votes!

Yeah, me too, I almost felt like I was using surgical gloves when I made the selections.

Looks like there will be a change in result if the users who only cast one vote are disqualified - there'll be a three way tie between 1 (no disqualifications), 5 and 6 (one disqualification each). Tense!

Sounds like a proper tournament.

I'm excited!

**Justinian Australis** · July 11, 2014, 08:48 AM

I submitted my first vote but after that I couldn't submit the second as the thread poll had said I had already submitted my vote...Scottish King did prompt me the other day about it and I gave it to him. Is that how it works...by submitting your second vote personally? I am a tad confused..

**Lugotorix** · July 11, 2014, 08:53 AM

You make two selections at once for these. I was confused a bit in the same way for the first competition I entered also.

**Justinian Australis** · July 11, 2014, 08:56 AM

Riiiiiiight....I shall remember that next time hahaha.

I should have known really...I've entered this before but its been quite a while!

How do you know which votes are the ones to be disqualified?

As Lugo mentioned, you vote for two at once. If however you only select one, you can PM your additional vote to a moderator - preferably before the voting period closes.

I was pondering this last night: after the poll closes is an ethics question of sorts, due to potential for manipulation.

It is which is why after this one, I will be disqualifying those who only vote once. However, I will also make clear to submit both votes at once not separately so if you screw up its on you!

So with the missing votes:

Submission 1: 3
Submission 2: 2
Submission 3: 3
Submission 4: 2
Submission 5: 5
Submission 6: 4
Submission 7: 1

Ill put up the tie-breaker vote for third place.
