I decidedly agree - Invasion of the Triffids (Day of the Triffids) is a really good important famous film, a favorite of a few people I know, a good representative of British film, and appropriately deserving of inclusion of the Best of 1960 Horror list.

Oh, c'mon now... We're already into the 1960's. We're thoroughly enjoying Z's thread and the process. What's the point in rushing through it? Besides, it doesn't escape notice that you don't mind making extra posts and appeals when your pushing films you appreciate... 'follow the rules', 'rules don't make sense', 'slow down', 'hurry up'... wouldn't have it any other way! :)

It's V, not Z. Are you the same one who did that before? Is your keyboard different from mine? I know they're close but it's not like they're right next to each other. :rolleyes:

Garrr!!! Why do I keep doing that!? LOL! Sorry, V! It is a keyboard thing. I know "V" comes from the film V for Vendetta, a great film I own. Oh, well, you know what I mean.

None of what you said deals in any way with what I said. I didn't say people were posting too much, or too often. I said it makes no sense to back more than two films when we're trying to decide on two spots. I have never done so. I don't care how many "appeals" people make- just that they should make sense within the context of the task at hand.

And why are you stirring up this issue at this piont anyway? V has asked us to pick ONE FILM FROM A LIST OF SIX. Any rehashing of past issues serves no useful purpose.

I vote for whichever one is winning. We have seven pages of posts in our attempt to select two films. Can we move on to the honorable mentions sometime this week? :)

Not that I'm complaining. What the hell else are we gonna do.

[neverending]

Ibelieve, at the moment there is a tie.

[_____V_____]

2 members who already backed Little Shop of Horrors have chosen it from the SIX,

2 members who already backed Invasion of the Triffids have chosen that from the SIX (one is for Honorable Mentions),

...yes, it is a tie between them, but in terms of overall votes/backings, Little Shop is ahead (6 against 4).

And even with only 1 vote (by hammerfan), Brides of Dracula is ahead at 8 supporters.

But, in the interest of fairness, and to get more clarification from Giganticface regarding his vote, I am keeping this open for 12 more hours. That will be the final stretch, and if the tie gets broken by then, well and good.

If not, we will seal Brides of Dracula as our 22nd film and move to the Honorable Mentions.

I'm afraid I'm quite confused by how these totals are calculated.

Does each vote count for two?
