Title: Voting Thread: 2015 Today's Toons Favorites (Final Round)
Post by: pookie18 on January 10, 2016, 08:05:09 pm
The preliminary round went pretty well. The voting reduced the 180 items in that round to the remaining 50 listed in random order below. As it turned out, any item that received less than 3 votes was eliminated. 36 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. As the one who adds click-on audios, videos, pics, toons, satirical stories, etc.,  to existing entries, I judge these to be part of that entry as a whole...you, of course, can ignore that if you wish...but only at your own peril ;-)
 
Each entry is numbered (1-50). 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 2 PM ET, Sunday, January 17, 2016. 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 17, 2016 or Monday, January 18, 2016. 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 2016, 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...

Pookie,

45, 11, 8, 14, 22, 50, 21, 15

I like 45 so much I want to vote twice, but that would be too liberal of me.
