Um, because I'm not interested in how many mundane friends you have? I'm
interested in what your *peers* (as in LEGO fans) think of your work.
Even then, I'm only mildly interested in the *outcome* (winner). I'm much
more interested in the *process*, that is, in all the entries.
I didn't have time to enter this but I did have time to look at entries and
once again, I am amazed at the amount of talent in the community. Just amazed.
While there are folks that entered who would not mind if your entry won so
you get the egoboo, not everyone is that mature, and by stuffing the process
with mundane votes, you are denying the folks who worked hard to make a good
model, knowing that their peers would judge it as such, (and not on how many
friends they had or how good they were at stuffing ballot boxes) the chance
to win fair and square.
