It's time for the reason why we all are here.
No. This isn't an open bar. That's over on the other side.
This week was all about Marching Orders and it's time to see what the voters out there in Vote-land thought. From what I have seen, it's another really good week, so it's going to be even more important to get out and support your favorites.
Before we get to the poll, there is the usual round of bad news. 2011 continues to take it's toll as people get back up to speed. Unfortunately, for some, it just wasn't able to happen here.

Some really great people, and writers in that group. I was hoping to see more of them. But that is the way it works out sometimes.
As for the poll itself, the tribes have stayed the same - and it is still the lowest vote total from each of them are eliminated. As we continue toward the Top 100, the pressure continues to racket up as more and more people start stepping up to the plate and hitting that ball pretty darn hard.
The poll closes Tuesday Jan 18th at 9pm EST.
Good luck to everyone!

Date: 2011-01-15 10:52 pm (UTC)Yeah, I figured that out early on. I generally had been trying to write as soon as I came up with something. It doesn't matter now anyway.
