This may not be a reflection of your opinions but is of the forum as a whole...
Well not really because if a forum member doesn't have a choice amongst those now available in the categories they either have to choose another candidate who doesn't reflect their feelings or abstain from voting. Fair enough for an 'awards' ceremony, but you can't claim it reflects the opinions of the forum as a whole.

The rules were very clear right from the word go, if you don't like it no one is forcing you to vote. I think your being quite rude actually. If you had a better idea why didn't you do it yourself?

I was answering a point on a claim for the representative nature of it, not triying to be antagonistic.

with all due respect this isn't a thread for debate is it? Show some respect to the OP, who has gone out of her way to put this together. To answer your question though, most of us nominated at least one person who hasn't made the short list I would think, however rather than making a fuss about it we have switched to the nominee that most reflects our views. If your unable to do the same, then don't vote, but please stop disrupting the thread and either vote or leave it be.....

I didn't see the earlier thread. I wouldn't have expected the need for shortening a list when there's only 16 people, I must admit, but I certainly intended no disrespect to the OP. My question was genuine and not a complaint. Now that you've made me aware of this, I will, of course, bow out as I'm not now able to register my own opinion.
