I had no idea Feimo's art has been in covers, too. That was nice to see, as I've been following her progress for quite a long while (even if the art-style is not for me that much ;) )
Anyway, I tried to keep my votes in a minimum. But it ended up being harder than I thought. So each slot ended up getting two votes from me.
How come this doesn't seem fair to bring these jury votes in... NOW?????
So many different book covers could have went a LONG time ago. NOW, when votes are REALLY counting, something like this, just blows everything out of the water, because, our votes don't really count anymore. They can take the covers they want to win, and ignore the ones that us readers, and voters, REALLY want to win, and NOW they won't.
Try to explain to me how these covers that had TOTAL points from the beginning, of 129, 129, 133, 133, 134, beat out covers that had TOTAL points of 141, 151, 155, 158, 159? So, TWO book covers with 129 votes WON over a cover that had 159 votes???? Where is the fairness in all of this????? If you want a jury to vote, that's what should have voted from the start. Not after us regular people have been voting for weeks! WHY don't they just pick a winner? I am so disappointed with your NEW rules...
I wonder if the 5 authors and cover artists would like to know they got booted out, when by rights they should still be in??? I should list the books, so everybody would know who's being cheated!!!
I'm sure there won't be a response to this, so I won't hold my breath.
