Vote,and let your Voice be heard.

This is a new place to record your votes for the Debate Club. If you have voted on the other threads ,you do not need to vote again,as those votes already cast will be included. Only one vote per person will be counted!

This new post is for those of you that are already aware of the New Debate Club and have already participated,and to include those that are not. It is merely another place to cast your vote in the first of hopefully many more Debates. As some of you have already cast your votes on the: Is Jack Right To Trust Juliet? - Debate Club (For or Against) The votes that have been cast already have been counted,and will all be included in the Final Vote Tally. If there are still votes recorded on the other threads,rest assured that I will monitor them to be sure that all votes are counted.So if you wish to you may still record your vote on those posts. The first vote was cast on Monday April 28,2008, and the last vote that will be included must be in by Thursday May 1,2008 by 6:00am lost-theories time. This allows for the 72 hour voting period that was used in the rules making.

On a personal note, I kind of volunteered for this,and as I am just playing it by ear, any suggestions as to anything, I may have omitted are Welcome.

I also would like to say I think that this endeavor that Lojozz began has been a very welcome addition to this site and has turned out to be a very resounding success.

Remember: Voting will end 5/01/2008 Thursday 6:00am LT time. Any votes after that time will not be counted,so as to get the resultsbefore the airing of Episode 4.10” Something Nice Back Home.”The final votes will be posted Here.

I also would like to congratulate both Angelo Comet and Lojozz for the nice job they have done on presenting a case for and against a very difficult topic to determine.

On a final note this is the link to the rules: http://www.lost-theories.com/theories/2008/apr/23/debate-club-proposed-rules/)

    Nice Job KSJ thanks for doing this.

    KSJ, After reading both debate posts, which I did enjoy, I would like to cast my vote for Lojozz. +1

  4. AngeloComet Apr 29, 2008 10:49 a.m. Comment: 4

    AngeloComet +1

    Ho ho ho! What a cheeky scamp I am!

    Actually, I echo the thanks to Lojozz for coming up with this idea and working hard to see it done right. I reckon it’ll really come into its own after Season 4 ends and we’ve got all those months to fill. . .

    And I also extend a hearty thanks to KSJ. You’ve been, and continue to be, a star.

    Ok, this is good. But should I recast my vote here? I am sure you explained this, but I am still a little confused…I voted +1 for Lojozz on his original post. Are you keeping a hard copy of the votes somewhere, to keep them straight? I am glad you are taking this on, thank you!

    SoLost, If you have recorded a vote(which you have) then that is the only one that will be counted. I think maybe I wll add that to the Intro though. Thanks.

    AC,Thank you for the endorsement, I just hope I am worthy of it ?

    Although I didnĀ“t actually take part in the debate, I really enjoyed reading. My own opinion about the whole topic has changed while watching both argumentations. After all back and forth within Juliets behaviour she always acted in the favour of our beloved Losties, therefore I vote +1 for AC.

  8. Mosh Apr 29, 2008 12:34 p.m. Comment: 8

    I did read both Debate Posts…. but my vote goes to Lojozz +1


    KSJ:Tnx for this post

    Lojozz: Your post intrigued me very much…you said what I thought

    AngeloComet: Nice try though! Nothing personal, but I’m with Lojozz

    And everyone: keep on debating….! me likey likey =D

  9. blonde Apr 29, 2008 12:52 p.m. Comment: 9

    I was leaning toward Lojozz, but AC made the most important point in the debate (and on the harder side). ” I believe he is right to trust her. (He ultimately does get rescued, too. Tangible proof that something went right in that respect!)”. My +1 goest to AC. Hat’s off to both of you.

  10. CB07 Apr 29, 2008 1:15 p.m. Comment: 10

    +1 AC

  11. Obscure Apr 29, 2008 2:29 p.m. Comment: 11

    Yes, thanks, KSJ for creating this thread! I have already voted. This is just to remind you to check that voters are not new members created during the debate period. This comment is not meant as negative reflection on LJ and AC as I TRUST them both (the topic of the day) but really to detect trollish voting and to set this precedent for the future. Thanks :-)

  12. Lojozz Apr 29, 2008 2:33 p.m. Comment: 12

    Yeah good point Obscure.

  13. katesawjack Apr 29, 2008 2:38 p.m. Comment: 13

    blonde, Welcome Back.

    Obscure, Thanks, and for that mention ,it actually was in part my reason for wanting a new post for votes,I have been checking each vote to verify their membership date.

  14. ozzig Apr 29, 2008 2:49 p.m. Comment: 14

    KSJ, did you already get my vote from the other post ? ( +1 AC). I voted after you had already done a tally over there, so wasn’t sure.

  15. katesawjack Apr 29, 2008 3:24 p.m. Comment: 15

    ozzig,You may rest assured, I did get your vote on record, and I intend on monitoring AC’s & LJ’s posts for any that may still be posted on those. :-)

  16. katesawjack Apr 29, 2008 3:47 p.m. Comment: 16

    May I get a few people to flag this as not a theory ,so it will be with the Debate posts.

  17. Tracker Apr 29, 2008 5:45 p.m. Comment: 17

    Kate… are you allowed to give us a tally so far or would that influence the voting??

  18. katesawjack Apr 29, 2008 6:26 p.m. Comment: 18

    Tracker,I am not aware of any rule that prohibits ,it but mine. lol

    Seriously it could,so my answer is, I hope to have the voting results posted by 12:00pm (LT time) Thursday May 01,2008

  19. abstractarzt Apr 29, 2008 6:27 p.m. Comment: 19

    +1 Lojozz

    I explained why in his post

  20. katesawjack Apr 29, 2008 7 p.m. Comment: 20

    AC, I have a query ? After looking at your comment . ” Apr 29, 2008 10:49 a.m. AngeloComet +1 ”

    This may have went right over my head. Are you casting a vote for yourself, to be counted ? I also have not voted as yet, and wonder should I exclude myself ?

  21. LittleOldLadyWhoLivedInAFoot Apr 29, 2008 10:09 p.m. Comment: 21

    AC

  22. AngeloComet Apr 30, 2008 2:07 a.m. Comment: 22

    KSJ - I was joking. Although I don’t recall this being an established rule, I figured neither Lojozz nor myself would be admitted to vote for ourselves. Or each other, for that matter. The Debaters don’t get a vote! So, yes, to be clear: My vote doesn’t count!

    (My gratitude for those that have voted, and especially those that have voted for me - you perceptive, beautiful people!)

  24. Lojozz Apr 30, 2008 4:46 a.m. Comment: 24

    AC i figured that in all likelyhood both debaters would vote for themselves and thus cancal out each others votes rendering them pointless and not required.

    KSJ I have no problem with an update on the vote, Angelo how about you?

  25. dabiatchishere Apr 30, 2008 11:14 a.m. Comment: 25

    I hereby cast my vote for the winner of the debate for Lojozz who kicked it. +1

  26. retroactiveman Apr 30, 2008 11:50 a.m. Comment: 26

    lojozz +1, while recognizing the difficulty in the trustworthy argument
