I am a little confused by the statement "the above two positions were decided using shares held by those who thanked: 41531 and 40312 respectively."

bobster007 was thanked by Dream on • Piojito • margaret7 • Eurovisionfan • William Joseph
blythburgh was thanked by borderjoe • Luke_PieStalker • anthonyh • xxxraichxxx • kevinchess1

Now, my understanding the total number of shares held by Dream on, Piojito, margaret7, Eurovisionfan and William Joseph is 41531 whilst the total number of shared held by borderjoe, Luke_PieStalker, anthonyh, xxxraichxxx and kevinchess1 is 40312.

Somehow, it just doesn't seem right.

Sorry not fully awake after a really bad night but if I should have been in second place not third please let things stay as they are.

I am just grateful for all who voted for me and am really happy to be in third place.

The results are correct.

Some 'old hands' may recall that when "shares held by those thanking" is used, it's capped at 10000 shares per person (to avoid one or two "big" shareholders dominating the decisions).

I fail to understand how members are able to workout how many shares other members have, why its important and why they would want to do the sum. Not a sum I am even remotely interested in doing. I would have had no idea whether the totals in the original post were correct. I would trust Richard to get it right.

I know how many shares I have and I know others have far more. Good luck to them but I am happy with my 15, 463 (including pending) shares

Considering that most of the members that vote probably have more than 10,000 shares then the tie break will be decided by newer members. Wouldn't it now be wise to increase the cap to 20,000 or even 30,000 ?
