I had a stupid moment: I looked through the 0 vote selection thinking "I hope there is nothing in here I really like..." Given that I have voted in every poll, this was clearly not a risk at all. I think Together In Electric Dreams is the highest ranked number that I didn't vote for.

I still think that number of favourite votes minus number of worst votes (often none for the top ones, I would imagine) should be a tie-breaker, before asking us again.
