Voting Thread: 2019 Today's Toons Favorites (Final Round)
« on: January 12, 2020, 06:02:11 pm »
The preliminary round went pretty well. The voting reduced the 180 items in that round to the remaining 34 listed in random order below. As it turned out, any item that received less than 4 votes was eliminated. 45 items received no votes at all.

There are some "rules" here, but not many. When selecting your favorites, use your own criteria. Some like funny, clever, pithy, touching, etc. Some like cartoons, photoshops, animations, etc. So, judge each entry unto itself.

Each entry is numbered (1-34). Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to send me (via comment in this thread/private message) the numbers
in order of preference of your 10 (or fewer, if you can't find 10 that you like) favorites. If you are caught sending more than 10, I won't disavow your existence, but will ask you to remove any excess. This offer will self-destruct at 1 PM ET, Sunday, January 19, 2020. Scoring will be as follows: A 1st-place vote will get 10 pts., a 2nd-place vote earns 9 pts., ..., down to a 10th-place vote getting 1 pt. Good luck!

If certain pics/toons don't download (even after a refresh/reload), send me their numbers (which will show up) & I'll try to help. The detailed results of this final vote hopefully will be posted on Sunday, January 19, 2020 or Monday, January 20, 2020. The decision of the judge (Today's Toons editor-in-chief) is final! Questions? Bring it on! And now, on with the show!!

P.S. If you'd like to inquire about possibly helping with the Best Of 2020, private message me ASAP & I'll tell you what would be involved.

P.P.S. Did I remember to say
in order of preference?

P.P.P.S. If you send me your picks in numerical order, I will ask you if they're really (altogether now) in order of preference...

A much more difficult mission compared to the initial round. Hard to pick just 10, let alone ranking them.

Best effort -  2, 30, 15, 19, 9, 7, 33, 31, 28, 25.

(Initially had #2 back in the pack, but had to move it to first to reflect its importance for this year.)

That’s it. My favorites weren’t anyone else’s. I’m unique I guess. But they are all good.

Thanks, Gefn! Some of my faves didn't make the finals either...

@pookie18

You should have a separate list for your top three. It would be interesting to know what your favorites of 2019 were imho.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-
