| Sorry, I just wasn't clear on whether I could vote or not, since I've got more than 25 posts, but they're all from several years ago. |

Zach, it was me that wasn't clear. You can definitely vote. 
My post was actually for Raving Lunatic, who said "Another vote for Reinventing." She has only 19 total post which is below the 25 post minimum threshold, but also she only cast 1 vote and the polling method we use allows for the casting of 3 total votes distributed over the 3 book choices however the voter deems appropriate.
Raving Lunatic, you can vote in this poll because you've lately been posting quality material on the forums and will probably (hopefully) participate in the book discussion. Usually we require 25+ posts because, from experience, many people with low posts will vote in a book poll and then never participate. I've been reading your posts and have a good feeling you'll be around for a long time. So please know you're welcome to vote and your vote counts.
But please let us know how you want to distribute your 3 points. Would you like all 3 to go towards Reinventing? This is usually what I assume when someone votes for only one book. Let me know. |

I have decided to change my three votes from Limits of Power to Cry for Myth.
