There's been a bit of confusion expressed over the voting process. Since
I've had this question asked a few times, I thought I'd go ahead and clarify
things to the list in general.

The voting forms at the end of each chapter:

Yes, I fully expect (or hope, anyway) that each  person reading Ranmadate
who wishes to vote will return the voting form for each successive chapter.
Yes, that means thirty individual voting forms, in addition to the popular
vote ballot at the end of the series.

Yes, that's a lot of voting.

I don't expect everyone to want to fill out the voting form thirty
times--I'm fully aware that eventually, it will become more of a chore than
anything. The entire point of the individual voting forms is statistical
analysis. I'll be factoring percentages of the statistics along with
percentages in the popular vote to determine the final outcome.

Someone expressed to me that they worry this will create a lot of work for
me. Don't worry about that--I certainly have nothing better to do with my
time, and it takes seconds to add new ballots to the totals. Just please
remember to send in the rating form for each chapter if you're reading and
want to participate in the final outcome.

Sorry for the spam. Expect the next chapter sometime....oh...hopefuly before
.hack//SIGN comes on tonight.

Cheers!
