Just a quick announcement about Superlatives...

In addition to the fact that you only have 4 days left to vote, I just want to make a quick comment...

I understand that 55 categories is a lot, and that it's difficult to come up with answers for all of them...but I've been receiving a lot of votes of just the categories that had picture threads. Granted these are the easiest categories to vote on...but it's not fair to the other categories, because if one category has like 20 girls worth of votes, and another has only 7 girls worth of votes, the results are going to be really skewed. It makes it difficult for me to tabulate, and we're really close to mathematic impossibility of having a unique winner for each category in the two subsets. And if it becomes mathematically impossible to have a unique winner, and we have to change to the actual winner in each category, and we have the same 2 girls winning everything...well, then everyone might get upset, which is not what I wanted in doing this.

So long story short, I don't want to sound like the superlative gestapo, but it would really make all our lives easier and spare drama and hurt feelings if you could all make an effort to vote for as many categories in the list as possible if you choose to participate in this.

Thanks!

I totally get why your getting aggravated!! Why would people want to add more categories if noone wants to vote on them!I got annoyed everytime someone added a category and I still voted on each one! COME ON PEOPLE!! GET YOUR VOTES IN!!!

HAHA I'm with ya gail!

I just reread what I wrote and it sounds kind of b!tchy......oh well! I feel bad for Ali!! She offered to do this for us and everyone was all about it until they started doing it and realized what a PITA it is to pick someone for each category.

Ali....Just use whatever you have! If people get mad because the same people won all the categories, well they only have themselves to blame for not voting!

Gail, you're such a beech!

As for those who have no intention of participating in this anyway, move along.

I have to admit I just pulled a name out of my @** for on at 3am and polls. All polls now are about GTGs, well most and none of us old married women seem to be on at 3am anymore.

I think I looked back at months of posts until I found someone who was, LOL!

Ali I voted and I tried to vote for as many different people as possible, at least in each section.

I agree just cut the other categories. That is just way to much work.

I am trying to search for key words on the last 5, and then choose someone based on those posts. Oddly enough I found myself for one of them and no one else so I guess I am voting for myself on that one by default!

No, if it's really a struggle for you that's fine. As I pretty much expected, we had a last minute rally, so we *should* be OK now.
