As mentioned before in this thread, I also would really like to be able to cast at least two votes maybe three. I think this would produce more of a runoff showdown between a few entries. :thumbsup
NOTE: I did NOT enter this contest.

re: 2010 "$1 Store" Lightsaber Contest - WINNERS ANNOUNCED!
I thought of a voting system which could make everything perfect (if it is possible).
We keep the poll (make it member only), but instead of an infinite amount of votes, we have a cutoff vote amount (ex 100 votes is the max one saber can get). Then we make the voting almost like a race, the first saber to reach 100 wins first place, second saber to reach 100 votes wins second place, and so on. This will spread the voting, eliminate ties, and (if possible) we could take it another step, and once the first person reaches 100 votes, a visible "1st" will replace the amount of votes they received, which will make the end a lot easier (figuring out everyone's place). I don't know how possible this is, but if it is possible, the next contest will run a lot smoother.

I was looking for something like that as well but all the Christmas ornaments in my local shop didn't fit the bill.
Good find though!

Hey, gang, Sorry, to be posting this so late. I was unavoidably detained.
I'll be putting the winners list together with the screen names of the builders, shortly. (I hope, at the latest it will be up by morning.)
There were a lot of ties unfortunately. We are going to do the spreadsheet thing, to brake those ties. I know it's not a perfect system, and I know some of you don't like it. But, with the poll being what it is, we do need to brake these ties. And, this really is every bit as fare, as a coin flip, or any other random way of picking one, over another in a tie. I don't like it any more than many of you do, but I assure you, that we will try to fix these problems before next years.

Well, talk about a humbling experience! I had all the confidence (arrogance?) in the world when I emailed jason1976 my pics. Now I find myself surprised, and excited to see my name on the bottom of the prize list. :cool
Thanks to Jason & the Staff for putting the work into making this happen, to the prize donors who made sure we were playing for more than bragging rights, and to my fellow entrants for their great submissions.
This contest RULES!

Well, this makes 2 years in a row, so it's looking that way. However, weather I host next year, or am just a helper, is yet to be seen. My dial up is very slow, and it my be better for some one with hi speed Internet, to do this. Plus, so many folks hated the poll thing so much, if polls do become the standard, there my be very few people that want the contest next year.
Last year, things went a bit more smoothly since I took, at least, a month before the contest to plan it out, and set it up. This year, I was going to set it out, but was asked by the staff, about a week and a half, before this thing started to host, with there help. Wall they were HUGE help, I wasn't ready for the whole Poll idea, etc. So, unlike last year, there wasn't any kind of plan, in the event of ties, etc. We started this year, with no prizes, and just lucked out, that so many folks were so kind as to donate stuff. etc. It is my hope that weather I host next year, or someone else does. That it runs much smoother. I also, hope we can find a way to alter the rules, to where, it keeps the spirit of the contest, but allows those that don't have dollar stores around them, to use othe kinds of stores. (that still carry junk parts, but just might be exactly $1.)
Anyways. A HUGE thank you, to the staff, that truly helped me in a lot of ways with this. A Big thank you to all that donated prizes. And, a big thank you, to All that entered this contest.
Congtatz to all the winners!!!!!!!!
This was fun, I loved it
So now is this an annual contest? If so, I'm gonna have to be in many more
