    This is really beautiful and an amazing amount of work went into it, thanks you guys.

    Are we going to get a "total votes" number for the entire thing, I would love to know that.

    Do you mean total unique votes, Matt? In that case I'm sure Aaron can whip that up without too much trouble.

    We also still have to hold the polls for our various appended categories, so while the main prize has been awarded, so to speak, there's still plenty of hardware to go around

    And I'm really happy everyone appreciates what Aaron and I came up with. I can't wait to do it all over again, this time with Under the Dome

    That's exactly it, total unique per book so we could have an overall number of how many votes we received to come to this conclusion.

    It's like a survey looking much better when you find out it was 10,000 people instead of 10

    Sweet, great work guys!

    I think it turned out pretty much like I expected. Sure a lot of the books at the bottom have not been read, but a lot have not been read for a reason, like Danse Macabre, which doesn't get great reviews.

    I'm surprised Drawing of the Three is the top DT book though, I always thought everyone loved Wizard & Glass. *shrug*

    some ones to laugh at Roadwork: no one likes this book and I don't know why, personally I loved it and found it to be a very realistic situation that just causes a man to go over the edge. And Wolves of the Calla: I see more people complain how they didn't like this book and that's when the Dark Tower started going down, etc... But then others just love the book (myself included) and have no idea what the others are talking about. lol It's great to see it made a strong showing.

    I've expressed my dislike of DT4 (well, that's maybe a tad too strong - I've enjoyed everything I read by King, it's just that one I enjoyed less than most) numerous times, and so I'm not at all surprised to see where it ended up. I'm also unsurprised to see DT2 just miss out on the top spot. It's prefect.

    ditto here... see the W&G thread in the Baronies, where bears expressed their intense disappointment

    Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
    When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
