Apologies for the delay, but the diurnal nature of humans caused a...

Ah, heck... we slept in.

Anyway, the winner has been tallied, calculated, confirmed, and is henceforth announced:

Voting: "If Geeks Ruled the World..."

It's that time, nerds... time to vote for the entries in "If Geeks Ruled the World..."

In other linguistically appropriated sequences of arbitrary symbols, posting is now closed and voting is now open! Looks like the Muses didn't hit the spot with this one, as #6 (Jelly) is the final entry.

Will the participating dorks please list (in a comment responding to this post) their Top 3 (in order of preference)? Remember, we celebrate the Muses here, not Narcissus: don't vote for yourself!

If you've not read the entries already, please do so immediately or at your earliest convenience. However, we prefer immediately.



Repeating previous statements:
1) No voting, no winning.
2) No post, no vote.

Voting closes on the final millisecond of the 28th of November and the new King of the Geeks (or Queen of the Geeks) will be announced on the 29th of the same month.

We thank you for your cooperation. It is sincerely appreciated. Dweebs.

Reminder: "If Geeks Ruled the World..."

It's the 22nd! The deadline for this nerdy entry is in 3 days! So get your creativity in gear and post your blog (you can sign up below; there's no need to check the original topic post... unless you really, really want to).



Also, we've (for now) decided against open anonymous voting, primarily because we feel that 10thDoM should be by bloggers, for bloggers. That, and we've been around long enough to know that those bloggers with fewer followers and subscribers will be at a serious disadvantage when it comes to obtaining votes.

But, we ARE changing the rule that winners can't pick two (or more, if the case may be) topics in row. From now on, winners can run the gamut, as it were. So, Rule #5:

  • Participants cannot "win" two entries in a row. In the event of someone "winning" a consecutive topic, the "second place" blogger picks the next topic.

... is going bye-bye! This rule change will take effect with the next topic (sorry, Nicole!).

Also, we'd just like to note that if you want to write more than one entry per topic, feel free. Just make sure they're clearly delineated for voting purposes.

Anyway, if you haven't posted already, get on it!

"If Geeks Ruled the World..."

Nicole is curious. What would happen:

"IF GEEKS RULE THE WORLD... "


Hmmmm...



Remember, don't sign up until you've posted the entry on your site and link that entry directly (not your blog home page). Also, the previous winner IS eligible to participate and vote, he or she just can't pick the next topic.

Leave a comment and let us know you're game!

Post as soon as you're ready, and we'll post a reminder on the 22nd (along with some rule changes). Voting begins after the 25th!
