I would prefer if the member votes did not appear at or after I post the panel votes. I like the free exchange of ideas about the bids without seeing how people (as a group) voted. However, I am willing to live with majority decisoin or even just whatever Elianna decides to do.

I think it would be better to wait till the panel vote is up. May sway the discussion if you post it immediately.

Maybe it would be possible to post BOTH the panellists and the contestant's votes together? but if not I vote for "after the panellists"

Well, it would be possible, but we would have to coordinate it, since two different people (Ben and I) work on two different sides of the contest. Also, this would involve one of us getting credit for the work of the other (let's face it, people like to give credit to whosever name appears on the post), which never makes relationships between people easy.

OOOPS - I hadn't thought of that Elianna -- I think BOTH you and Ben do a terrific job -- and compliment each other :ph34r: ---- I was thinking of the convenience to ME (not you two) when I made the original suggestion B) PLease do what ever is convenient for you both :(

Elianna does a great job, and she would do even better except I hamper her by being too slow in sharing information with her. I will try to do better.

yes she does... so do you, especially when it comes to explaining why a certain bid (usually the one i made :)) isn't best

the only hand i submitted came from actual play... this might be too much trouble, but as much as possible i'd like to see others like that... in this way we can get the panel's views, the spectators' views, and the actual table results...

the danger with that is, with so many great players on the panel it's entirely possible they'd recognize a hand, if only subconciously, and it might be possible to cloud their judgment... i'd still like to see it :lol:
