    Since there is a tie at the end of the voting period, the poll will remain two more days.

    (Please note that votes cast by those with less than 50 posts will be disregarded.)

    I'm curious as to why the 2 day delay is necessary. Once the tie is broken, (and I believe it is now) why not go with it?

    Actually, it's now 7 Opium Eater, 6 Hunchback, since two who voted Hunchback have less than 50 posts, and one who voted Opium Eater has less than 50.

    Agreed. Two more days may just allow another tie, lol. Still, maybe Hunchback can pull it out.

    I am not online keeping an eye on the poll round the clock (as much as I would love that to be the case) so I have no way of knowing at which point the tie is broken (if at all).

    If we still end up with a tie, I will flip a coin (or pick a book based on my whim) as usual.

    Well, if it's broken when you log on (as it was when you last posted), why not just let it be determined than? It just seems like this would be a simpler solution for you, Scher.

    But how do we know that it was broken to the advantaged of one book, tied and broken again to the advantage of another one during my absence?



    It is good to have a deadline so that everyone knows what we are looking forward to.
