    There were some other good suggestions, but I think Ben hit it right.

      that I had a hard time voting for my favorite (let alone choosing the top 15 or so).

      I’ve noticed a drop off on the voting numbers though, on my site.

      The first time I did it, there were about 90 votes. The week after that, about 50. It seems to keep dropping each week.

      I’m wondering if there is a different way that people would like the winner to be chosen than doing a poll?

        to vote.

          Unfortunately, I can’t make polls here on RS, so that is why I did them on my site as a test.

          I guess I could go back to picking the winner myself without taking votes.

          Also, what are your (meaning anyone interested) in doing the contest less frequently? How often would be best?

  • Ben Howe

    Thanks for the votes everyone!

      Unfortunately, the economics teachers in Madison probably teach this stuff unabashedly. They wouldn’t even think it’s a parody.

      Great job, Ben

    I tried for a solid two hours Saturday morning to post a comment for the contest, but I couldn’t get it to post.

    Anyhow, here’s what my entry would’ve been.

    Union Thug: “GOVERNMENT DECISION WITHOUT UNION PERMISSION!!!”
    Kid: “Dude, check it…let’s stick a ‘Kick Me’ sign on his back.”

    Even though I didn’t win, you posted my best entry twice in the “other finalists.” I need all the exposure I can get.
    Much appreciated.
