It's tight at the top!
We could do with a few more votes to separate the front runners.
Sorted I hope. Finally managed to find and copy the code.@Stegosaurus
Well done on working it all out. The only bit missing, not that it's very important, is the link to the discussion thread.
Voting is open to any TP member, not just those that have entered.I've only competed in two of these little competitions, but both have ended in a dead heat. Although that is hardly a huge problem, it's nicer to have a clear winner. Although I am a callow newcomer, I wanted to tentatively suggest that maybe the person who sets the challenge should vote last, with the directive that their vote should split any competitors that are neck and neck, or not create a tie. The alternative I suppose, is to try harder to get the wider community here to vote? It seems a shame that only competitors are voting. (At least, I assume that is the case?)
Yes, I understand that, but it seems that the number of voters was the same as the number of competitors in both challenges....Voting is open to any TP member, not just those that have entered.
I didn't get chance to vote this time as I spent the Xmas hols with someone in my support bubble who doesn't have internet connection and mobile phone signal is very hit and miss round there, plus I hate using my phone to access the internet. So I can confirm it's not just the competitors that voted this time.I've only competed in two of these little competitions, but both have ended in a dead heat.

Photographers are very mean. First they frame you, then they shoot you and, finally, hang you on a wall!
I had to give up my career as a photographer, I kept loosing focus! Boom! Boom!
Is there any special reason for the voting to be open for 2 weeks @PeterSpencer ?Challenge voting is now open. Good turnout, would be nice if some outsiders could join in the voting and boost our ratings. Voting ends in seven (7) days, y'all.

I my own personal experience whn I've been the organiser, that's how long it takes before someone gives me a nudge to say I've not updated the voting thread.
My mistake, I wanted to keep the voting period to a week, but I can't count. By the looks of it probably all votes have been cast. So how would I edit the poll to close tomorrow, say, if everyone is happy with that?Is there any special reason for the voting to be open for 2 weeks @PeterSpencer ?

The one vote option per entrant is fine. As Shakespeare once wrote; In striving to better, oft we mar what's well.A thought regarding the limitations of polls on the forum. For challenges we could give each entry/entrant two check boxes. You would then be able to give your favourite 2 votes and have one vote left for a runner-up. If you really can't decide then you could still give up to 3 entrants one vote each.
How does this grab you?
