Hello everyone,
Unfortunately, I have some rather sad news. It seems someone couldn’t resist and has abused the survey. Among the 74 participants, there are at least 15–20 people who haven’t been active in the forum for several years—some of them are very old usernames that had already stopped being active back when I was more active.
Unsurprisingly, these accounts have all voted for roughly the same individuals. I’ve sent private messages to these accounts, but I likely won’t receive a timely response (if any at all).
It’s genuinely disappointing that such a wonderful event is being shamelessly exploited like this.
With that in mind, we will be redoing the vote with stricter security measures. This time, like we’ve done for the Advent Calendar, we’ll use StrawPoll with an IP restriction. To prevent inactive forum users from voting under false identities, I ask that after completing the survey, you confirm your participation here in the forum with a comment. Anyone who does not leave a comment here will be manually removed from the survey by me.
I hope the individuals responsible will take a moment to reflect on their behavior. Enough words for now—let’s focus again on the positive and celebrate the achievements of some of our amazing community members.
Best regards,
Julian
