Right here's the second round of the Poll for the 2020/2021 Group Build season. I selected all of those that had achieved 10 votes or more in the first round to go through into the second.

You all have 5 votes (you don't have to use them all) and the top 3 choices will go through. I'll keep the Poll open for two weeks.

I seriously thought about it Sandy, but felt that would have been "changing the rules a tad" and that if I'd have done so then arguments could have been raised as to why I'd done it for that selection and not any others ? Could of opened a can of worms.

I have parked it in my brain however and if I'm still doing this next year and if we have any similar situations I will ask the membership for views if similar situations occur.

Right having just voted I can now see the current standings and the leader does surprise me a tad.

No worries, perfectly understandable that you don't any perception of changing the rules.

I too am surprised by some of the leaders!

Gentlemen I need your thoughts.

As things stand we have a tie for third spot running. Now come the end of the week that may well no longer be the case, but if it is then it presents me with a problem.

We only normally run 3 GB's plus the One Week Build during the course of the season so I need to decide what to do and would like your thoughts on the subject.

I don't really want to have a run off poll, I might do though and if so it will be over 5 days max. I have thought about adding the votes received in this round to those received in the preliminary round to come to a decision, but I don't really like that idea if only because knowing my luck they will have got the same number of votes in round 1.

So anyone got any other suggestions or comments on my thoughts above ?

I second that. IIRC, one of the culprits HAS been done in historical times.

Nick, as I think I've said elsewhere I should of done this in the first place. However not having done it before the vote started I can't really do it now or at the end of the vote because people could say, and quite reasonably, that I'm showing favouritism and why couldn't I have done this for suggestions x and y ? Indeed I'm already being accused of fiddling things, much worse actually, over on BTS by somebody hiding behind a user name.  :-\
