Bless you.

I hate this type of beg but I do find this open vote daft and open to abuse. I have not mentioned this on any other forum, just to the folks who read, and know,the story. I hope that makes it a little better.

Not going to win, but it would be fun to be in the top ten

Cheers all

Reef

I don't feel like it's cheating because of the ones available, yours is in the top three, to me (along with "The Yesterday Doctor" and "Someday Arrives at 10:15"). Good luck, Bill. =)

I voted yesterday - notified you Bill, on your script thread.

I'm still curious if winning gets you more than just kudos...?

I just voted again. You can vote once per day.

I'm doing it... but it just seems a waste of time. It's not going to bring any kudos. Why have people voting once per day?

So the poor writer out there without any friends or family, but with an amazing title, must sit back and lose while somebody with a shitty title wins. The logic behind all of this is starting to hurt my head, best I stop thinking about it.

A Headman for a Deadman

That is the current leader. Maybe it's a US thing, but I don't get what's so great about this title.

Yeah, I've got to agree with you there, Dustin. I guess folks just love a good rhyming title...

Thanks all

The more I think of it, the more this is a stupid way of doing things. Hey ho. ( ie their voting system)

Voted.

All I had to do was follow the link and vote. Amazing. I thought I'd have to come up with another feckin' user name and invent a ten character password the NSA would have trouble with, all for a site I'll never visit again. Thankfully there was none of that.

Looks a bit lower in the rankings than would be desirable. Bill's a good lad, if you can, please vote. I know he'd help you, if you so desired.

Good luck fella.

Gave you a couple of votes over the weekend.  I'll say good luck -- but the ranking wasn't looking to favourable last time I checked.  Pity too, it's not representative of quality -- as noted already the voting system seems misguided at best.  


Maybe this is how Corbyn got in...
