Is it at all possible to lock a thread but keep its poll open for voting? I'm not very familiar with the vBulletin system but if it was possible, perhaps people (kid1213, EBAiscool, пзо) would actually VOTE IN THE POLL</subtlety>

I don't think its possible, I may be wrong. Its important for the community to have a place to have discussion so even if it were possible I wouldn't do it. Besides if people aren't taking the time to read the thread then its pretty hard to imagine they'd put a lot of time into their decision on who to vote for. Overall I think it works out quite nicely.

EDIT: I'll reply to your other suggestion a bit later.

Right, a discussion area would be nice. However, most of the posts in this thread have been people simply stating who they are voting for and why, quite unnecessarily. I haven't seen much discussion yet; more on the system of the HotM, not the hacks themselves. However, I'm not even sure that this is possible. Still, you bring up an excellent point about the types of people who aren't voting in the poll. If they choose not the read the first post, their votes shouldn't be counted in the first place.

Oh and take your time with the other idea. It's not something that can be implemented instantly; it'll take quite some time to work things out (if you decide to even use it).

Hmmm...Interesting. I like colcolstyle's idea because then my hack is up next month but it's sorta confusing. The one they have right now is clean and very efficient... Hmm...

I just think we should have more than three hacks to vote for. Seeing as it's pretty popular (68 votes in one week), it wouldn't really sparcify the votes that badly. Maybe 5 hacks? I dunno. :\
