Poll of the Year 2011
There are a couple of new categories to make it even more exciting than usual (yeah, like THAT'S possible), and we're piloting a special category for our international readers. Read on!
Contents |
Instructions
The first four categories all work in the same way:
- In each category you have five votes.
- You may use up to three votes for a single show if you feel particularly strongly about something. If you do want to vote for the same show multiple times, please put each vote on a seperate line as it make it clearer for counting. You do not have to use all your votes.
- You are invited, but not obliged, to leave supporting comments. You will have more chance of being used in the final write-up if you get to the point.
- You are not required to vote in every category.
A list of all the shows we believe elegible can be found below, but if you think we've missed something then please let us know. You are free to vote for remakes.
The Categories
- The Hall of Fame - New UK shows for 2011 you really liked.
- The Hall of Shame - New UK shows for 2011 you really disliked.
- The UKGameshows.com Golden Five - You can vote for any UK show where at least one new episode was broadcast during 2011.
- Best New International Show - What were your favourite new non-UK shows of 2011? This one is for our international friends, although anyone with knowledge may vote.
- Finally we're interested in what your favourite UK gameshow-y moment of 2011 was. This one is not a popularity contest particularly, we will use the more interesting comments and moments.
Got that?
Good. There are two ways you can vote. You can send an e-mail to poll2012@ukgameshows.com or (preferred) you can use the form set up at Bother's Bar. Just one form per person please, and we reserve the right to exclude dodgy looking voting slips. Members of production companies are advised to reveal their affiliation.
And don't hang around, the polls close 11pm Friday 13th January 2012, look out for the results soon after. Thanks for your time!
