You picked the one from the America's. Find me 1 american not voting for a (north-) American. Richard obviously is 2x better than his north-American counterparts, otherwise he wouldn't make a chance. Actually i remember elections where there was at least 5 persons from Europe which are up to Richard's standards. Elections online are always a joke. In any forum i always saw mostly Americans win. Example suppose i would nominate these 5 : 1 Ulf Lorenz (Germany) 2 Bradley Woodward (USA) 3 Remi Coulom (France) 4 Richard Pijl (Netherlands) 5 James Tennohan (USA) Which 3 out of 5 get picked? With 95% sureness i can assure you it's number 2 and 5 among them. Richard is most likely the number 1 picked, simply because of ACHIEVEMENT. However i lied about 2 things. First lie was that Bradley is not from USA but from Australia actually and one of the coolest guys i ever met in computerchess. So the list is now like: 1 Ulf Lorenz (Germany) 2 Bradley Woodward (Aus) 3 Remi Coulom (France) 4 Richard Pijl (Netherlands) 5 James Tennohan (USA) Again we go have elections. Now i'm 100% sure number 5 will get picked. Probably Richard gets picked again for the same reason and Remi probably gets picked as he is assistant Professor. Ulf despite being doctor will end close. Now lie 2. Person 5 is a name i just invented myself. So what we have is. Ulf Lorenz. Someone whose objectivity, whatever the subject, is without question. He is around already very long in computerchess. Remember p.conners he wrote and nowadays involved in Hydra and organizer of the yearly IPCCC tournament. We have Bradley who is one of the nicest guys around. We have Remi, also someone whose objectivity in disputes is without any question. He is around in computerchess a long time already. Has his own program TCB. We have Richard Pijl who we all know who has a freeware program The Baron which lately is kicking butt. And we have someone can know nothing about but has USA behind him. So he'll be picked. That's what i mean.
