Someone please check my arithmetic.

And if I'm right - what was going on?
It's possible some members did not use all 5 slots. :)
But is it likely that all the members only used one slot - and in most cases, not even the top (5 votes) one?
That would at least explain the numbers.
None of the really dumb people I knew when I was young are young any more.

If not, enlighten me.
Well if you ask me I'll put it straight, I was just thinking that everyone involved could get some consideration, even the last one classified. I respect anyone, even people that put nude girls in VST backgrounds, I guess it's not an elegant move to ignore developers below the podium and I am realing wondering about my class, I was hoping something like 12-15thbut I can't verify because of an annoying "winning-mentality", that's all.. :D

How is a 'winning-mentality' any more annoying than a 'ranking-mentality'? Aren't they the same thing?

First question: yes it is more annoying.
Second question: evidently not the same thing. :D

The first question was 'how'.
The second question clearly indicates that it wasn't 'evident'.

To put it another way, those who just start developing software need every possible way to get feedback on their work, and the amount of votes given is indeed a valuable one.

Absolutely. But 'number of votes' and 'ranking' are not the same thing.

Well, I personally would like to see everyone's rank too, because that's actualy a good market research :)

Nearly made the top 40 there!

The bottom 2 came from the same developer. The manual wasn't in English. They were a little on the small side for most screens.
And may well be among the most useful contributions this year (at least as far as I'm concerned). If I can figure out how to use them ... Their site is bookmarked.

The 'real' winners are not yet known!

Hang in there GaryG. As they used to say about the Lottery: It could be you!
