Yeah, while I tried to say up front that the poll idea was all about shallow appeal and nothing to do with writing, those people getting the most votes I have found myself looking up. And, I suppose, while the number for Giles Blunt does look a bit fishy, if it's just one person repeat voting, they've done it enough times to make clear they think he's <i>really</i> sexy, which perhaps does count for more than a regular sex appeal that doesn't encourage people to try to cheat the poll.

There might be a link to the poll somewhere else that I'm not aware of, but it is possible to vote again if you know what you're doing. There's only a couple of ways to block repeat votes in an open poll. Can't wait till Ning offers and integrated polling service!

Heh! Either Giles Blunt has a legion of fans out there, or someone's figured a way to log in multiple votes. Still, it's effective; I checked out his website, and while his face and figure do nothing for me, the site got me interested enough to check out one of his books from the library.

I'm sure Jack Nicholson would have got the same number, at least based on the dialogue in The <i>Witches of Eastwick</i>.<br />
<br />
I've added the actual date (doh!) and I'll zap the name right now.

I'd go with the view that 2 votes implies just the right degree of sexiness. More than that is just showing off.<br />
<br />
'Fraid I've got another name to zap - Suw Charman. Charming girl though she is, I'm afraid she hasn't had a work of fiction published yet and her admirers clearly didn't spot that requirement.<br />
<br />
By the way, was it due to close last Friday or this coming Friday? It just looks like people are still finding the poll and voting, so it might be worth leaving it open a little longer.

This is clearly true, since <i>I</i> got two votes.

I think a couple of people are having some fun with the poll or don't understand how it works. I say this because there are a number of names up there with zero votes. I'll clean the poll up as it goes.<br />
<br />
So who keeps adding my name and not voting, huh?

I'll let it run for a week, so last day will be next Friday.
