Are we supposed to give 3 entries by numbers in 3 best OS categories or shall we rank them as per our perception as 1st, 2nd and 3rd?

To be honest we should not allow readers to vote here on the thread actually it can brain wash other readers let me explain how
1. something like everyone is voting for os number four but I didn't like the os but then I will think everyone is voting for os number 4 and writer is the clear winner so I want to vote for the one who is going to win. I do not wish to waste my vote so where the majority support.

2. Everyone like this particular os and I didn't do I belong from mars no I don't I should like this os then I go read it again and then liked it because everyone liked it

3. Suppose someone hasn't got a single vote and the person is feeling down it's been 10 days I haven't got a single no liked my work am I that bad? Well no because taking part and giving your 100% is important winning is clearly so do not let the failure affect you.

4. For an example I came late and results are around the corner I checked the thread and came to know that everyone is voting for this particular os you know it will be more like a review I go and read that particular os because I do not have time to read others so I voted for the one everyone is voting without giving others a single a chance. This isn't fair.

5. Suppose I'm the participant and no one voted for me poor me. So after the competition all might disclose our work and I would not be able to do it because no one voted for me or may be i got two three sympathy vote and even if I disclose my work I might feel down and we are not here to demotivate anyone right so as I said before may the best one win but still we all are great here no one and I mean no one is less than the other specially those who does not have a prior experience in writting so taking part is important winning is not

6. When the participant would see that they are getting less vote they might go to other social media platform like Facebook whatsapp Twitter and tell theit friends or maybe readers to vote for them only if they have any personal contacy with them you would be able to trace india forums pm but not the other platforms right so might give them a chance to cheat.

7. Clearly a waste of time for all of us because after reading the os we are going to check who voted for whom maybe daily

8. It could be offensive for those who can't handle rejection suppose I have a friend on IF a virtual and she happened to vote for someone else then I might feel bad I might not say it but I might feel bad and here people do have bonds and they share a good virtual friendship though I would like to call this point number 8 stupid but still it has the possibility.

So my opinion about the voting is keep everything same people can comment can write reviews but allow them to vote in pms don't disclose the voting.

P.S. - here whatever I said was my genuine opinion and I do not wish to hurt anyone personally so please do not take it on hearts all of you are doing great jobs and you people deserves a clap all of you writers, readers, organisers. And if unknowingly I have hurt someone then I'm sorry but please think about it

Somehow I too agree with you... I also feel that voting should be through PMs as voting here might lead to such instances😳

Hi acwriter,
Some valid points raised by you. My doubts
1) What open voting can do, same thing can be done by reviews? Why do you think reviews will not have same effects?

2)by PM to organiser you are giving everything in our hand, where's transparancy? It should be there right?

One more thing Ross...
Do we have any Mod involved here as we need someone who can keep a check if anyone is asking for votes through them?
Otherwise how would this be assured?
