I say no.

Not that I wish to exclude them, but it's highly likely that each mod has probably already received one or two signature submissions, which would throw the anonymity of the signature contest out the window.

is the anonymity that important? =/

More so a question of principle than an actual effect upon the results.

To your penultimate post, Hessah: Keep in mind that there may be ~2,800 members, but how many of them would actually vote?

Well, I'm thinking that if they entered and the voting is anonymous then they most likely would cast a vote for their own entry since they considered it worthy of entry.

But, even if they see another they think looks better they would choose it since, as I understand it, this is the siggy they will use on other forums for themselves and I can't see them voting a less appealing siggy just to vote the person if it is the one they WILL be using themselves.

well i knew we wont even get 50 ppl voting... based on SOTW evidence..there's usually 20-30 votes... so mod votes are dont dominate...

hmm i would think that as long as all votes are not bias, then isnt that the priciple we're trying to achieve? i dont think any mod would be bias...

but... yeah hahah doesnt matter i've casted my vote!

Probably would've been best if this vote was made before submissions were made and whatnot.

Anonymity is important. Too many people on here would vote yes for somebody just to suck-up to their e-popularity, I fear.

viasta 03-14-2008 02:48 AM

Yes, everyone should get a chance to do something

Hessah 03-14-2008 02:48 AM

but not everyone would know who submitted wat....

we were talking about the anonymity not kept from a few mods coz they may hv received a submission.... i dont think the mods will vote yes to suck up for e-popularity.... (righty might though.. hm... HAHAHA)

if that's a problem them maybe mods can submit and not vote...? (i think spirit said mods are considering not allowed to vote anyway so many that's not an issue)

in the end I guess it all comes down to how serious you want people to take this :P
staff being able to enter = whee-whoo let's all have fun because there's never been anything serious about this !

Hear hear!!
