Posted by B1gfoot: I have not nominatead anyone as yet because its actually quite hard to pick 1 person, everyone above are worthy, but think we are still missing a few names such as calmplay, photolong, awood88 and xpok3rkingx (there are more). I am going to put awood88 in as he is a felllow brit and is always up for some fun, if there are more spaces id love to see photolong and calmplay in there too.
I wasn`t going to put anyone up because I don`t want to play favourites, but I think you are right B1gfoot. Some more people deserve to be up there on the voting list. So I`ll put up Calmplay!

Thanks B1gfoot. Appreciate the mention let alone the nomination.
I haven't nominated anyone myself for the same reasons mentioned above. Too many interesting, helpful, friendly and decent forum regs to single out one person and it's gonna be hard to vote for just one. I can see a few very popular members though getting most of the votes.

totally agree with b1gfoot.... for a mother is hard to make a choice between all her children
but as it is a game ( and a nice one: ty Tony ) I make my choice...and it is an easy one
Manuedo: he is: italian, A.S.Roma fan, nice guy and.......he nominated me.
but honestly speaking I think that me and him don't deserve this title because there are other mobsters more active, more poker experienced, more able to talk than us. every reg here knows who I am talking about....no need to nominate them

Oh yeh, it's gonna be a landslide lol. For us now on the list we're just gonna be embarrassed
FWIW awood88 I think b1gfoots nomination of you was a top choice
ALSO: FOR ADMIN - I know that the standard poll offered by BRM is vote once and then get locked out - but I'd really like to be able to vote say pref 1 pref 2 pref 3 or something along those lines, obviously with each preference being 'weighted' differently - I say this because it's going to bit pretty difficult IMO - to just pick one name from this list - there's a lot deserving - and i'd feel a lot more comfortable picking if I can pick more than one name, in some fashion or another.. Just a thought.

Hey all Being that I choose to not be in this I would like to add my 2 cents. Might not be a popular opinion but really I dont think mine ever is I first must add that although due to the employment position I have chosen, I may not have been or will be in the near future as active as I use to be, I still really care about this forum, and most of who are here. That being said, I would like to ask all who have accepted nomination and hope to be nominated why you think you have or should be nominated?
At this point I have not suggested or nominated anyone. I feel that the winner should be someone who not only has been here the longest or made the most posts or got on the top 20 of posting.... blah blah blah.......
No offense to anyone but I would like to see someone tell me why I should stand behind them. I have thought of a few who have not been on this list and to tell the truth I am surprised.

Unfortunately that's not possible
If only everybody was as neurotically convoluted as I am:
You create three voting threads, each with an identical list, one thread is preference one, next is preference two, etc. See then the existing polling structure can be used.
FYI: I'm not serious about doing that - obviously it'd be a disaster.

Posted by Pjot: As Jess writes above. It would be pretty great if one could vote for more than one person. So, hereby, I start off by I voting for Jess' suggestion.

That could be done But I think we will see the "preference one" poll getting more votes so it might not be totally fair in the end.
For now, I've just made it so the poll options are randomized each time so people don't just vote "the guy in the top" all the time.

Good idea to randomize the vote. Can I suggest if it's possible, maybe you should hide the results of the poll from the people who haven't voted as it may effect their vote if they are one of the later voters. I mean who's going to vote for one of the trailers who has no chance of winning.
Also I noticed you haven't added calmplay to the list, nominated by IslandJack.

I would like to nominate my fellow Finlander "Kristan" . I haven´t seen him here in a while but hope that he comes back soon! He got some great poker skills/knowledge and his comments were always really informative
