There were a lot of one-sided contests in the last round of Lovely of the Year, the only tension being provided in the matches between John Smeaton and George Clooney - which Clooney lost by a mere four votes, leaving wardytron as the main eyecandy among the remaining contestants, right ladies? Ladies? Anyone? No? - and between Charlie Brooker and ( Read more... )

If someone else was running LOTY and they declared that they'd spent £20 on a trophy, even if you were a front runner for that trophy, you fully well know that you would claim that they had just wasted £20. "You could have spent that twenty quid on a booze prize!" is what you would say. Come on Andrew! Be objective about these things, for once!

No offence wardytron, you're probably lovelier than Jon Snow but popularity-contest shmopularity-contest and James Ward only got the vote because well, ffs, John Smeaton? Who the hell is voting in these polls? Oh, you mean I could look for myself? WELL I CAN'T BE BOTHERED.

Aw baby otter cub.

Do you have any evidence AT ALL to back up your claim that I am "probably lovelier than Jon Snow"? NO I THOUGHT NOT.

Well the thing is, I'm sure you've bought me a drink in your time, but I've drunk in the Jon (h or otherwise) Snow pub far more times than times you've bought me a drink so - erm yep - not much evidence but what are you going to do?

Shouldn't you have a poorly photoshopped Santa hat in that icon by the way? (MS Paint alternatives are available).

Sorry rhodri, but you don't nurse sick animals back to health. As far as I know.

My fondness for animals knows no boundaries, not even legal ones.

That John Smeaton fella reminds of that actor fella - Max Bygraves? Something like that anyway.

I WANTED CHARLIE BROOKER TO WIN LOVELY OF THE YEAR AND MAYBE JUST MAYBE PAUSE FROM DESCRIBING PEOPLE AS FARTING SKITTLES OR HAM-EYED POLTROONS OR HAVING THE LOOK OF A HAUNTED TREE*, AND TO FEEL A WARM GLOW** FROM WITHIN AND REALISE PERHAPS HUMANITY HAS HOPE, THAT PEOPLE AREN'T SUCH UTTER CONNIVING SH!TS AFTER ALL.

AND THEN YOU GO AND PROVE HIM RIGHT ALL ALONG.

WHICH ISN'T NEARLY AS SATISFYING AS OWNING A TINY CUP. DAMN YOU.

* Fair enough though, John Kerry DOES...

** Like with Redy Brek dragons, but less porridge-based. (N.B. This includes 'man batter'.)

I want me to win, because I bought a trophy on the understanding that people would vote for me REGARDLESS of how lovely or not I might be. But I have a nasty suspicion that instead they're voting for the person they consider most lovely, almost as if they're actually respecting the rules. I've managed to get round this so far by giving myself an easy draw in each round, but it's getting impossible.

Do you think (and I realise that this is an outside chance) that some people are voting for whoever is not wardytron?
