k...
500 posts per day. too much to wade through every day. Its slightly more
manageble here. about 250. I can then easily cut that in half as i know
which threads are a waste of time. I also know which posters are a waste
of
time.

OT: What I want to know is where is the NG for film users, preferably 35mm?
Any digital dullards who read this can skip the whining about how film is
dead. Your protestations will fall on deaf ears.

That is a lie. Not a single vote has been ruled as "invalid" by the NAN
team.

You have the cart before the horse Bill. There is a 5 day period for
discussion and then NAN may take up the case. Don't you remember the
sequence from Full Metal Jacket?

Even the Stromboli votes, which you have supported in the past, have
been upheld in all past challenges.

I'm not speaking of Tony and his family, I put them in the remaining
1/4-1/3 slice I spoke of.

BTW, with this lax voting system, and Satan winning hands down, you know
what group is up shortly for the shoo in? Yep! talk.kookology Any
more groups you'd like to see, while apparently the ducks are in a row?

Out of curiosity Alan, how many yes votes do you recognize,
or are able to confirm by googling?

I haven't looked at it at all and I'll leave that to those who are
interested in finding fraud to investigate. I'm not a 'regular' at
r.p.d for the simple reason that led me to be a strong proponent of
Thad's original suggestion: too much D-P&S and other non-DSLR material
to wade through.

The obvious frauds (stromboli, *@sneakemail) can be discounted as well
as the obvious 'famous names' [mostly sneakemail's IAC]), and there are
certain to be a few dozen more fakes, and there is still overwhelming
support for all 4 groups.

I might be tempted to say: if you can find a hundred valid yes votes,
I'll *eat* *my shorts* (though I'll pass)
(those boyz hidem up *real* *good*, didn't they!?))

In the FMJ case, someone properly challenged a series of *specific*
votes with compelling evidence and a solid reason for voiding those
votes.

Here is the *official* challenge, with proof..


http://makeashorterlink.com/?E28824999

Message-ID:


The original RESULT..


http://makeashorterlink.com/?Q19813999

Message-ID:


The revised RESULT..


http://makeashorterlink.com/?A1A823999

Message-ID:


In the original RESULT, the group failed. There were 2 challenges
made..to the Full Metal Jacket "no" votes, and to the Stromboli "yes"
votes. In the end, the FMJ votes were thrown out, and the Stromboli
votes were upheld by the NAN team. The group passed, solely due to the
Stromboli block of votes.

Not a single vote has been properly challenged for the RPD reorg vote,
with any offered proof of invalidity. The losing side cries "voter
fraud" on almost every CFV, and nothing is ever reversed without
compelling evidence of voter fraud. Unfamiliarity of a voter name is not
grounds for voiding a vote, as there is no previous posting requirement
for voters. In order for this result to be invalidated, you would need to
come up with a list of roughly 250+ invalid votes, and offer proof why
you purport *each* of them to be invalid, above and beyond the claim
that you do not 'recognize' the names.

The RPD reorg vote will stand, and the new groups will be created within
the next few days.

The burden of proof falls upon the challenger. You have no case. The result
is solid, and accurate..with the exception of the Stromboli votes, which I
have been very vocal against since they started voting on *every* CFV. I
would prefer to see the Stromboli votes removed from the result, but that
will never happen. The NAN team has already investigated them in the past.
It is the official position of NAN that the family exists, and that they
have the right to vote..unfortunately.

Obviously not you, but some people apparently do, so please ignore what you
