[murf]

THIS THREAD WILL BE BUMPED AND RE-USED EVERY MONTH FOR THE POLL

ok time for a revamp to try and stop the moaning from people,starting from may 1st we will have a new category every month,this will be done based on murfs idea,so people will have today and tom to vote which category they wont gone for may and which category they want voted in in its place,there is a list somewhere to choose from im sure murf will find it,talking of murf you can sort out the voting side of it for me,after may the last 3 days of each month will be the voting period and murf will let me know the last day of the month what subject is going and which one os coming in,the only one that is staying at present will be the saturdsay guest round as personally i enjoy that round so need more people to put a category forward for that.

think thats it

This is the vote IN poll. There are 7 options to choose from. One transferrable vote each. Most votes by Tuesday evening (whatever time I log in!) gets in for the merry month of May.

2nd to 4th will get another chance in next month's poll together with this month's topic voted off and 3 new ones.

Last months vote off - Music
New Options - Sports (general), World (UK), Celebrities (well I had to put something up....)

I'm starting this early as I may not be around much in the next week or two.

I will declare a deadline of Midnight at the end of Friday June 28th if someone can announce the results for me - but if saintmark wants/needs anything different then he can take the result whenever he wants.

JUNE RESULT

Which new topic do you want to be added for July

Animals 21% 21% [ 5 ] x

Same 2nd to 4th as last month and the two polls both just reversed the May result for a double yo-yo.

We'll keep this voting going for now but if we just get more yo-yoing I may think again.

[Moist von Lipwig]

so music gets voted out with half the vote, then gets voted back in again the next month with 40%.

you fickle bustards

A new topic! 2nd to 4th live to fight another month (again) and the three fillers I added got zero support.....

[murf]

AUGUST POLL -
Returning (again, 2nd to 4th)- Animals, Movies, Literature
Last months vote off (again) - Music

I haven't bothered adding any 'filler' categories this month as they never get any votes.

This month's winner will be safe from a vote off next month so we will get it for 2 months mimimum.

I will declare a deadline of Midnight at the end of Friday August 30th - but if saintmark wants/needs anything different then he can take the result whenever he wants.

[Moist von Lipwig]

I'm getting the polls closed in May.
