Bingo! I've kept my mouth shut here, but have been thinking the same thing. It goes hand in hand with the outrage that is voiced whenever ribbon-winners have 1-votes and 2-votes, whilst at the same time nobody whines about also-rans with 10-votes and 9-votes. Go figure...

Or, as just pointed out by shutterpuppy, it's possible that the participants are judging more accurately. ;-) |

Then they came for the non-participants and banned them, because non-participants were assumed to be ignorant of what it means to create a good shot for the challenge, and I said nothing, because I'm not ignorant.
Then the connection to the old poem breaks down, but we're still left with no one being allowed to vote. |
LOL.
How about we strip all voting rights from everyone but me? My vote is the only vote that counts. That is the final solution. :) |

Perhaps I missed the scientific study that showed personal bias was behind all of this? You guys may be right, but at this point since I've seen no evidence to prove it, I can only conclude that you two are guilty of the same personal bias crime you're decrying. Sorry.
