I don’t see where/how to vote. I feel dumb, but must ask.

Er…where exactly do I vote? I only see a poll up for voting on a book sequel.

I think we need an Official 30 second time out to reset the shot clock here.

I’m curious, Jayne, who you voted for in the Novel with Romantic Elements since those were two books that you recommended. No need to tell me though. I’ll just speculate to myself. I do want to read the Landon book though.

I hate it when two teams – er, I mean books – I love are up against each other….Ah well, luck of the brackets.

Out of curiosity, how did Magic Bites (great book, BTW) end up in With Romantic Elements as opposed to Paranormal? Not that I'm implying it was a mistake; I'm just curious about the decision-making process.

That was my call. I wanted to include it in the tournament because it was one of my “best” books of last year, but it does not have enough romance in it to be called a romance. I thought Patricia Briggs’ book also was questionable on the romance but stronger so we stuck the Briggs book in the paranormal and the Andrews book with w RE. We had alot of great books in the NWRE section.

Different polling software. Mine is based on wordpress and SB’s is based on a different software platform.

Because our software emails you a confirmation. We’re on EE, and DA is on WordPress, and our polling software are two different animals.

However, if you think it’s intrusive, please let me know. I can tell it to stop.

Hi SB Sarah,

No, not at all. I was just curious how one site asks for it and another doesn’t. In my head, I’m imagining this giant bin with all the votes in it, with some with addys (names) and some don’t. I’m still learning this game, that’s all :).

I’m probably doing this all wrong, but it’s fun.
