Personally, I do like this system that I inherited from Merri. The "first past the post only" system ended up with someone getting 2 1sts while someone can get everyone (10-20 people) to vote them as their second favourite, and miss out when everyone really thought that it was almost as good as their first preference.

So now you have to put your thinking cap on for something that not only appeals to you but will appeal to a lot of others to get them to put up a picture for voting.

Have funbanana rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Wash, Oh dear.... your memory, sigh

It was YOU that suggested this system... this was not mine.. laugh and I took it on to try it out...

I preferred that everyone got a vote, one vote, because it made it fairer, in that it counted everyone who got a single vote..

Ah, never mind...

Obs, as you say "self-built" which means you can find your way out. And getting out to take insect pics in the local reserves is a perfect way of getting out.

depression comes from seeking self happiness, happiness arises whole time your mind is directed towards benefiting others
