And really, it's encouraged to make an informed vote for the best candidate here, so I will not be at all chagrined if you vote for some other worthy blog. If I lose, though, the orgy* is cancelled and you might as well tear up your invitation.
*And you ought to see the other attendees…va-va-va-voom.

Just a reminder that you can still vote for Pharyngula in the Koufaxes (if you haven't already done so) in 6 different categories! You could click on the link and leave a comment that just says "Pharyngula!", or, since their server is rather heavily overloaded, email the name of the category and…
Voting ends tonight, so this is your last chance to vote for or against Pharyngula in these categories:

If you've already voted, ignore this: you only get to cast one vote. If you haven't…
Ummm, well…seven eight Koufax nominations is rather flattering. These are the semi-finals, though, so it may well be that none of them make it to the finals, and to then actually win one is an even more unlikely eventuality, but hey, here I am.
If you want to vote, all you have to do is follow the…
I have been writing my class syllabus (conservation genetics) for awhile today and as a reward, I thought I'd peek in on you all to see what you are doing. I just learned that, for reasons that escape me, the Koufax Awards voting deadline has been extended until tonight. I think this is great!
So,…
Ah, but how many attendees will be vertebrates?

What do you have against tentacle sex? If Japanese schoolgirls can learn to love it, why not you?
Well, I just emailed them with the recommended votes. I am woefully ignorant about this blog competition, but like any true democracy, my vote counts as much as any Ph.D-toting squid lover. :D
I didn't receive my invitation, so I'm voting early and often for Michael Berube. That'll learn ya.
Did anyone keep tally of how many votes each blog got?
Presumably the folks at Wampum kept track. The respective comment sections are all still available. But it's not possible for us to see all the votes since a large number (likely a majority) are received via email. There's never been any cause to doubt their integrity (and hard work), before or now. But if someone wanted to re-enumerate the votes in comments they could certainly do so, though apparently the Wampum folks use unpublished information (IP, email address, and likely technical browser data) to help spot and remove irregularities (which they have complained are worse this year).
It's all Bérubé's fault.
Well, as long as Lindsay wins both best blog and best writing, and PZ wins best expert, I'm happy.
Holy cow you sweeped the awards! Right on!
I meant "swept". Mee no speeky engrish none too good.
Umm, no -- that isn't a list of the winners, but only a list of my egotistical recommendations. We'll have to wait a while to see who actually won.
