Currently at 89 submitted votes and 232 nominated books.

Hello /lit/, it's that time again.

Time to record our favorite reads of the past month. Use the link below to vote.
All answers are acceptable whether it is a poem, essay, play, novel, philosophical text or anything really as long as it was something you read this past January. However, spam and duplicate answers will not be counted.

In an effort to get more interesting final results, we ask that you are more specific in your answers. For example:
If you were going to vote for 'The Bible,' instead vote for the specific book of the Bible which you read, such as Exodus or Ecclesiastes.
If you were going to vote for 'The Poetry of John Keats' instead vote for a specific poem, such as Ode to a Nightingale or Endymion.
If you were going to vote for 'The Dialogues' instead vote for the specific dialogues you read, such as Crito or Gorgias.

The votes will be tallied and results put into a chart at the end of the week. I hope you all had a good January, happy reading!

I read Call of the Crocodile among other unrelated books. I don't see it on the results, anymore. If you're deleting it because you think it's a joke answer, this is not the case.

>> No.17448807

It's bullshit. Lot's of people are reading Gardner's books because of the ads. The guy running the pol is removing all the books he doesn't like.

>> No.17448956

>>17448796
In that case I encourage you to put you vote back in. There was a large influx of votes for Horror's Call books over the course of a short period of time, and so it was clear to me that someone or multiple people were just spamming it. I'm sorry that I deleted your vote if it was sincere, go ahead and plug it in again and I will count it.

>>17448807
This is not true, the only ballots I have removed were the Horror's Call spam votes, two duplicate votes, and a handful of blank ballots. I am willing to believe that a number of people have read the books, however this poll had been going for three days with no votes for them, until a four hour period in which over a dozen ballots were cast towards the end of the third day of polling, and nearly all of those ballots exclusively voted for Horror's Call books with no votes cast towards other books. Do you really expect me to believe they were real?

>>17448956
I can only speak for my own submitted answers. The only one of those books I read was Crocodile. Obviously there were spam submissions, but you're dismissing them all as spams.

>> No.17449029

>>17448956
Alright. I'll put my vote in again, I guess.

You shouldn't be kowtowing to these meme spamming retards. They're getting mad because you're ruining their lame joke. They could care less about this poll. They just think it's going to be "hecking epic" when you publish your gay chart with their troll vote. Grow a spine.

Not true. I don't care about the memes. I read Call of the Crocodile because I remembered them being posted back in the Writing Generals. I like to support others from this board.

The chances that I will put Horror's Call into the final chart are very unlikely. It will get an honorable mention if it gets anything.

Ah, I see. Look like you're proving the posts right, about you only selecting only the books you like. Next time you decide to make a poll, try to leave your bias aside.

>> No.17451363

>>17451279
The reason for this is that it is impossible for me to tell which votes are spam and which ones are not. You have your peers to blame. I don't owe you anything.

you put this one >>17450808 in there?

>> No.17451774

I haven't because nobody has submitted a ballot for it.
