WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

  WannaBe: The 'official' count, of votes for Best Handle/Names, as far as <jessicafischerqueen> is concerned, I counted 4 official votes.

They are from <technical draw>, which is first write-in vote, then <ragh>, <hms123>, and <wwall>. Their post, was very distinct, in such that it was a vote. (Even though there was weeks of nomination process, and she was not amongst the nominees, and out of the blue, people decided to start a write-in process.)

The 2 'dispute' vote, as I would consider, would be <talisman> and <benjinathan>, one was written as a question, <benjinathan>, and the other was written as: <votes for Jess in whatever category she is nominated.> Which, she was not!

And I had no clue on how to interpret what those two posts really meant...

So, according the 'official' vote counter, e.g., i.e., for example, moi. The final count was 4 votes each.

End of discussion.

  WannaBe: <SwitchingQuylthulg> I was on the Florida's ballot counting committee, and as a member of the U.S. Supreme Court Justice!!

Imagine that!

Jan-06-11  Boratco: LoL, can't imagine the queen on the ballot, only Gore and Bush.

Switch, more satisfying winning the chessbookie championship leg, let's go get 'em.

I'm outta here.
