A Frequently Wondered Question

Q.

Just curious… how does your organization go about finding, then selecting the best Canadian blogs???

It seems to me, like Telefilm Canada, a lot of dregs are selected, and the others which are far more worthy (again like Telefilm Canada) are left out in the cold I’m just curious as to how some of these blogs are selected to be “the best” and by whom?

Personal & Overall Up

We have received the polls for the Personal and Overall categories and have put them up for your voting pleasure.

Sorry For The Voting Delay; Overall & Personal Still Delayed

Sorry for the delay in voting. We have been facing a bit of a technical problem.

Since the biggest categories (Overall and Personal) require a customized poll from the polling service, it takes longer than usual to receive those completed polls. We were hoping to receive them by this Sunday, when that didn’t happen, we went for a short delay for the purpose of releasing of all of polls out at once.

However, it is now Tuesday, so what we have decided to do is release all of the other completed polls and get Overall and Personal up as soon as possible.

The schedule has changed as follows:

First Round: December 1 – December 12
Second Round: December 13 – December 19

Sorry for this and thanks for your understanding.

Short Delay in Start of Voting

We’ll be shooting to get the voting up on time tonight, but at this moment I can’t confirm that will happen.

As you may know, the Grey Cup game is on today (and I’m a die-hard Riders fan) so I will be glued to the tube. And Northern BC Dipper who has primary access to our voting system forgot when we scheduled the voting start date that he’d be away for a convention this weekend. So it’s looking like voting will be ready early this week instead of today. Thanks for your understanding and patience.
