What I think is that we should not have any run-off vote if the winning vote gets an overwhelming majority vs the 2nd place book. There's no need.

Why is it we are making things more complicated and causing it to take longer? We now have added a second vote that we don't actually need.

Actually, you had the ability to just say no and that would have been it. You still can you know citing that it doesn't actually work.

Is there a rule in place about nominations being available in ebook format?

Books have been disqualified for not being available as an eBook in at least one country.
But I do think it would be good to list the countries a nomination is available in so we won't be having the Black Rain dilemma. People then won't have to go scrambling to try to find a copy as they can vote based on interest and availability. I'm of the mind that if an eBook is not available in at least Canada, UK & USA that it not be allowed. |

Well it makes sense that all nominations should be ebooks!
Its too late to change things now, but how do we prevent a situation like Orloks going forward? Black Rain is not available as an ebook in his location. Quote:

The mods don't have the time to do that kind of search on every book nominated, but if other members bring up that an ebook is unavailable in a particular geographic location, I'll be glad to note it in the second post where the nominations are listed, right beside the Inkmesh search.

Maybe add a note to the nomination thread post "Please comment if not available as an ebook in your area". |
