Guess which one I voted for? :)

Hey, I'm losing 2-1! Come on, everyone--vote for me! I pay well! Hmmm...maybe this vote-mongering is a bad idea...the Pinky & The Brain fans might get mad... :)

Vote-mongering is fine, just one vote per person, please. <g>

Of course, this begs the question-- what the hell do we do if there's a tie? :P

As the architect of one of the options, in the event of the votes being even, I'd have to try to insist that Joe's option prevail, and then be talked into agreeing to the flip of a coin. Why, any other reaction would leave me ostracised for unsporting behaviour. I'd never be able to wear the old school tie again.

If you want a rationalisation: well, Joe's nomination was submitted first.

It's not the winning, it's how you play the game. (Hang on, maybe that's we don't have an Empire any more. <shrug>)

(Oh, yes, and I *don't* wear the old school tie. Hmmm.)

Okay, as of 12:33 AM Eastern Standard Time on 2/12/98, the voting stands as follows--

Out of 8 votes submitted, 3 are for Joe's Proposal, 5 for Martin's. I fixed the accidental entry that had messed up the numbers. No harm, no foul. <g>

Here's the url again, as promised, from the dept. of redundancy dept.

Click on "Vote Already!" and vote.

Now that I can eat again, I think I'm going to go enjoy a nice big sandwich with lots of spicy condiments on it. <vbgtm> (very big grin to myself)

Oh, and I'm still working on the rate-an-ep script, I've just been way too busy with RL to devote any time to it.
