If you could have told me about parential issues now, you could have told me way back when I called you out on skipping 9 categories in a row instead of telling that "nothing in the rules tell me that I can't do so. Fix that loophole next time." If you think suddenly bringing that up now is going to change my mind, you're wrong. You had time to inform me that something was up, yet you wait until the last second to bring it up as a shield after I've made up my mind. I will not be swayed.

You're also wrong again about that unspoken rule. No one is required to forcefully finish their votes before submitting. I don't know who told you that. If something that big was an actual rule, it wouldn't be unspoken . The thing is, I know not everyone can actually finish. But if they drop out with a valid reason to do so, or just simply fail to meet the deadline, they should have the privelage to keep their votes because in the end, they did try. I know this allows for that loophole that you're so insistent about bringing up, but I can still give them the benefit of the doubt.

Since Vote Moderation is still in effect, I had been trying to give people a little extra time to fix their votes. People like Neo, who fell out without a word, still had time to come back and continue, (regardless of what the blog says,) which is why I held off on passing judgement on that.
