I think we need to get rid of the 3 vote system. Once it comes down to the top 3 (or 2, in this case) when people vote for the best 3 it USUALLY doesn't actually sway the votes because the people that are deadlocked both get +1. Actually having to choose a number one pick not only helps to level things out a bit, but the person you pick gets more of an advantage. For instance, I voted solely for janglamorph because:

A) I thought the particle effect and view was absolutely kick-ass, nice job and
B) I wanted to help him in what I thought would be a much closer vote; if I had voted for Zip, Livewire, and Janglamorph, then J's vote count gets raised but at this point that's insignificant and then the two votes to zip and Livewire does nothing to break the tie.

Anyone else care to share their thoughts?

Would it be possible to give one person three votes, another two, and another one?

Jest, can we call this one a tie? I don't think it would be fair to just stop it at a random time, votes have been swaying back and forth never exceeding a gap of 2 for the last 5 days, and it wouldn't be fair to just stop it and give someone with a 1 vote lead that would change back to a tie in the next few hours the win.

@ Monkeh; I agree, after two trial runs the 3-votes thing isn't really having the desired effect!

As I've said before, I'm working on a ranking-style system but it's some way off.

I'm officially declaring this a tie between Zip & Livewire: Congratulations guys!

However, I'll leave the vote running for a few more days to see if any more votes come in for the other entrants. If you're yet to vote, please don't vote for Zipfinator or Livewire!
