New poll: would you enter a honing contest / survey

As requested by bart, here is a new poll.
Fwiw I really think the contest is a great idea.

Thank you, Bruno, for putting this poll together, I was unaware that it was even possible, the creation of multiple entry polls.

For clarification:
the original idea was doing a fun little contest. http://straightrazorpalace.com/advan...g-contest.html

But if the fact that we will announce a top 3 and give those participants a prize, scares too much guys away, then we will do exactly the same, without announcing winners, which will turn the thing into a survey. The goodies will we donated to random participants in that case.

Gssixgun is already in the jury/assessment committee.
And if we get at least 20 participants, I volunteer for the job of executor (keeping track of the razors, making sure everyone gets his one back, sending the bribing bottles of single malt to the jury members, and such)

Bart.

Instead of creating 2 separate threads of discussion why don't we keep this one for just the votes on the poll, and the original one for opinions either For or Against....
Since I can't close this thread and leave the poll open you are just going to have to follow the link in Bart's post to the original thread and I will move the last two comments there....

Thank you in advance for your cooperation

Count me in! Mine can be the "See... here's what you don't want to do...." example. :)

That reminds me of a plaque a friend of mine used to have. It said "No man's life is completely wasted--he can always serve as a bad example for others!"

I'm in. Looking forward to hearing some feed back.

I thought we had stopped kicking this horse. An inter-continental contest like this seems to be way, way beyond our amateur abilities to manage and assess.

Oops, the horse just twitched! Could it be that our pedal ministrations have given it life? Up, up my steed; on your hooves, up brave Lazarus.

Let's ride, Bruce. There be razors in them thar hills, and they aren't going to hone themselves.

Come on guys! just 5 more and we have ourselves a contest. :)

I'm in for either a contestant and/or a judge (provided it's not overly expensive). Seems like fun!
