I suspect others have done the same, but to save time I copied and pasted the list of nominations into word, whittled out everything except the number and who I was voting for, then copied it and pasted it back into the PM. :wink:
I am playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order!

As far as the organization of the ballot goes, all praise need go to the sheriff. I didn't even know nominations were closed until the ballot thread appeared!

Please, everyone make sure you have read the instructions for voting in the ballot thread and follow them. If you do not, your vote cannot be counted. In particular, you need to post in the ballot thread to say that you have voted so that the mods can verify IPs

So far, I have votes from the following ('X' means you have confirmed your vote in the ballot thread):

ussusimiel X
aliantha X
Iolanthe X
Vraith X
Effaeldm X
balon! X
MsMary X
wayfriend X
dlbpharmd
I'm Murrin X
sgt.null X
StevieG X
Savor Dam X
