And that's it for this month! Remember to check in again around the last week of this month for the "Best of the Month of August"!

While you are waiting, you could perhaps check out the Fics of the Month Showcase Thread for all the lovely stories (and other non-sense) published in July! You could also check out Liberty's ongoing Greatest 100 films of All Time project.

And finally, like they say in the Village, "Be seeing you."

@SupahForeigner @TheAcidSkull @Mucklefluga @Katie24 @knighthood @MadeinBangladesh @htb106 @RUKM thank you all for voting!

I would also like to thank:

• @RazzaTazz for nominating our wild card this month (and for other things...)
• @cosmo111687 for creating this and originally hosting this (we got it pinned!)

I also need to call out:

• @etragedy because I said I would call him out when the results were released...

@etragedy: I'm glad you find this helpful...

oh, I should say this now...

@SupahForeigner and @TheAcidSkull as you guys voted for the winner of this month's wild card, you have the chance of suggesting next month's catagory. As long as I approve of the category, we can use it as a category for August. Anything you guys want to see be a catagory? remember you both have to agree on it.

@SupahForeigner: @knighthood: thanks guys :)

oh, two fun factoids:

• FIRST: not next poll, but the poll after that (the sept. one) will be the first anniversary of the first Best of the Month poll (then hosted by Cosmo). I suspect I'll have to do something special (maybe a collection thread with lists for each of our categories)
• SECOND: it seems now that we are pinned, we have gotten popular enough for a copy cat troll (a troll who copies bits of others posts) to copy part of the intro onto another thread. The fellow was dealt with, but I only locked the thread (instead of deleting it), because I am amused by it: Comic Vine Votes! - Best of the Month.

Can't say you are successful with a poll until trollers try to copy you :P
