Lol. T2W uses the JIT principle

There is one more surprise (or is it a mistake?), I see I got myself a silver medal for my journal again... a journal which hasn't been updated in the past year. I should leave the thread another year dormant and I might get gold next year lol.

Congrats to all the winners.

I am surprised & honoured to collect the silver medal for most helpful member :clap:.
I'd like to thank everyone who voted for me.
I'd also like to thank my parents and my family. If it wasn't for these people I'd.......

I'm not sure if the fact that - my name was on a shortlist of the votes drop-down menu - created a bias in my favour cool:. But if it did, i have got to thank Sharky and the T2W team for the kind consideration - Nice one fella's .

i think the shortlist was based on last years voting?

Yes, see Sharky's post. I think that already creates a respons-bias for voters. And those who are only interested in winning the Ipod will no doubt just choose one of those instead of opting to add a name of their own.

To be honest, I think last year we, formerly known as the Focus Group, came to the conclusion that the MCA could improve on several aspects and the limited number of voters was once of the reasons we reached that conclusion. Perhaps this year is the time to change the concept? I don't want to tread on anyone's toes. After all, it's not in my personal best interest to change anything, considering I'm amongst the winners

This doesn't change anything about the fact that I agree with GammaJammer and I think every winner is very worthy of his nomination.

Conglatualtions to all winners.

2 recommendations for .

1. Why don't you make the votes open. So everybody can see at any point in time who is winning. I think that would make it more transparency and fair.

2. Will be great if you can award winners with something. A certificate, gold trophy for the winner or Something "like MCA winner 2007" written below their name.

 

[Sharky]

Thanks for your comments and suggestions. Bizmanny, point 1) is valid and I think we may well do that this year, it will probably make more sense to have the ability to vote for those entrants that have a chance of winning, to minimise the long tail effect. Either that or we have an initial round of nominations and then vote on those. Point 2) yes absolutely, and it's already in the works - all MCA winners will get a special badge to identify them on the forums.

Sharky Keep up the good works.
