Bit of a stupid way to pick the winner, why not just go with a random pick?

Anyways voted for Mr Noris, good luck and enjoy the ps4 if you get it

Thanks so much :)

Lol, this is more like a popularity contest now :D Nobody gives a **** about the contents of these nominated threads.

Yeah, and it seems that I'm unpopular :(

Taxes or beer. The choice is obvious! ;)

It's more like "getting money back which you can use for beer, or spending money on beer" ;)
 
I will also vote for Biometrics, because I am a Capetonion and love my beer. :)
 
Sharing experience when it comes to locations, there is only one vote. Beer, can't argue with the thread and is in terms a unique Google search. I vote Biometrics.

^ This is not cool.

Wonder where else..?

Biometrics getting so many new votes in the last couple hours is also fishy to me, but I can't find anywhere online that is asking for people to vote for him, so I won't call on that.

rpm and mods can see who voted though, so it'll be an easy task to work out how many of the votes are legitimate. I'd suggest disqualifying a selection for cheating if it has too many "fake" votes. But that's only because I'm in position 3 right now :P

Sorry, but this is an immediate disqualification in my books. Sorry, but that's just pathetic...


Let me start off by saying that I agree with both of you. However...

- I'm not Killerbyte
- I never knew about those
- I think they're sweet

Saying that, I have no problem being disqualified, as I feel it'll make no difference to the outcome. I lost the moment Biometrics came online.

Most of the day I was leading, until then. This competition went from a "what do you think is the best thread" to a mass call to arms from friends / clicks / clone accounts / who knows what. As the votes "suddenly" turned for the worst (from my perspective).

If I'd known that the winner would be the one with the most friends, I wouldn't have bothered with this competition. I still would have contributed to those threads though.

Lastly, easy with the accusations. There is no need for them. If you have a problem with me, speak to a mod / admin.

I agree. This turned out to be a popularity contest. rpm and the mods should have gone a different route... Hindsight=20/20 though

mr_norris, I lost respect for you. Hope you get disqualified

If he says he didn't know, then he didn't know. I'll give him that benefit.

Poor form to start accusing bio of cheating as well, but I understand where he's coming from.

This sort of comp always ends badly. It is far better to just pick at random - no more bickering and fighting...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

EDIT: Hey peeps, have you considered the possibility that his "friend" started these pathetic threads in an attempt to get Mr. Norris disqualified???

Or just let the mods decide between themselves and klaar without any dispute.

I'd like to have my thread moved to the correct subforum actually as it's clear that I'm not going to win the comp, and I'm also not really that concerned.

The mods will be accused of bias every single time. Ichigo will in all likelihood start stalking them...:D

Just a note, I know that mr_norris is not the guy who posted those requests. A simple google of the two names shows them as somehow associated, but surely diferent people.

Not accusing anyone of cheating, just saying what I said since the start, that dupe accounts must be watched for by the mods. I don't believe for a moment that he was in on the posts linked.
