Remember everyone that Lunar was 0.03% off the popular vote total and only missed Missouri and NE-2 and ties for first among states predicted accurately within 0.25%!

Ok, good call.  I don't know who I would choose with <3000 posts.

<100 posts would be easy for me, but I actually can't think of anyone at the top of my head that is <3000.

Oh right, you'd be a contender but the libertarian-leaning person always wins in my book against a populist Smiley

I see less of your posts for whatever reason,

labeling JSojourner a cynic is wholly inaccurate, now that I think of it, if you look at what 'cynicism' originally meant/actually means.  Christianity is incompatible with cynicism.

You really want that prize, don't you?

Most civil?  I just called Bono a "cartoon" and antileftist a "fool" yesterday and blew up in J.J.'s face a bit ago. Smiley  I've also called CARL an asshole and creepy, but that's pretty reasonable.  What are you talking about though -- when I have calmed you?  I'm amused by this

There is actually supposed to be one more round of voting.

Do it then!

counted in order of appearence, tried to be as unbiased as possible

I don't think Xahar's indictment matters since these are only nominations and people are still free to vote for whoever they want. 

Some people gave "X or Y" or "X/Y" which I just counted as dual votes since people were allowed up to three nominations even if they didn't realize it.

I believe Torie is disqualified from best Newbie, if not, he should be considered nominated as well, possibly overtaking PiT in total votes.  Nevertheless, if both of them are qualified then they are certainly both #1 and #2, doesn't matter which is which
