Book of the Month

Post by parthianbow » Tue December 29th, 2009, 2:26 pm

Might I suggest that once the poll for a Book of the Month is closed that the site refuses to allow more votes? Otherwise it can appear (e.g. January 2010) that a book won (thanks to votes cast after the deadline), when in fact it didn't? Otherwise it's a tad unfair, IMHO.

It normally is, but this time we overlooked closing the poll. Human error--it happens sometimes.
