Right, thankyou all for yr nominations in the Poptimists Birthday Poll. Before the poll can start PROPERLY tomorrow, we need to whittle down some of the ALSO-RANS. Eight of these will go through to face the Big Guns in round 1 proper of the AMAZING BEST POP STAR EVER KNOCKOUT POLL. Get ready to spend the rest of the week arguing what makes a great pop star - music? style? attitude? looks? contemporary relevance? indieness? YOU NAME IT! YOU VOTE FOR IT!

Caution: what lies under the cut is BIG because of photos.

Did Tom actually sit at his desk at work and do this draw by picking names out a hat?

It's a cruel lottery. Esp. as I couldn't let fab Oakey in over 'mazin Dusty >:(

I picked names out of the futuristic cyber-hat that is the Excel RAND() function.

Speaking of that marvellous function - seeing as the Antic-Reacti polls are finished, I think it's time for diggerdydum to get into AM I CANON OR NOT...

They'd have to be pitted against each other sooner or later.
