Because of the poll option. Only the Assistant Admins can change a poll, and with the regularity that we will be running contests, as i discussed with Jelly, it was thought that a new poll thread in the word games forum here would be more suitable than pestering them to change it every month or so. Im not keen on the option of PMing votes and the idea of having a visible poll may spur the contestants on to attract more voting if they can see that it is close. The poll option is also unable to be manipulated without the coordination of many people too. It seems safer and fairer and more transparent this way is all.

Congratulations too Sora on a second win! I will sort out the prizes and such tonight when i get home from work!
