That has been the top 5 since the last tally (almost 5 months ago). I decided to go with a new list to give some people a glimpse into what has been the most-voted-for since the last tally and to satisfy what some feel would be a more accurate snap-shot (more modern, I guess). No list will ever be conclusive, but at least this one doesn't contain old data. It's not as easy to just add this list to the last one since many of the posters have voted many times prior to that last list (and NK has all that data), and if I would've added this to NK's list (even with amendments), the overall top 5 wouldn't have hardly changed (same in the top 5) -- I doubt anyone would've wanted to see that. Also, I will do my best to check all the numbers with all the other votes I tallied from the master list (all-in), but I never intended on having "participation awards." I will add everything up (as best as possible), but it will be a little less accurate than this one. I did my best to make sure the numbers are correct though.
Here's something to note: Overall, no vendor, since this
thread has started, has consistently gotten votes like AVE. The previous year or so has seen a huge influx of HHV and it's only kinda tapered off in 2014 (but not enough to change their standing on the master list). Ahlusion has come on strong last year and this year, but this year has been huge with Nicoticket (considering the previous counts). Nico hasn't edged out the most votes this year (or it's too tight to say right now), but they are about neck-and-neck with Ahlusion and Good Life Vapor for most votes
this year. Since the last 5 months though -- the part that I am most focused on, and according to those that have posted here -- these are the Top 5 Vendors (based solely on most votes).
I may have more to come one day regarding this tally and the master list, but if it comes, it will come when it does.
[Note: I would appreciate this post not being quoted for a couple days just in case I have to make a change.]
