A very popular game on internet fora, one that I'm surprised hasn't made its way onto PCM.daily. It might be uninventive of me just to recycle standard rules, but I'm genuinely interested in the outcome (more on this at a later date) and think this is a good and light-hearted way of deciding our favourite recent GTs. If there's enough interest in this I will expand it to other things (monuments etc).
Here's a list of the Grand Tours in the past 7 years (any more and it gets too cumbersome). You are allowed to 'heal' one candidate, giving it +1 point, and 'hurt' another, giving it -2 points. When one gets to 0, it is eliminated, removed from the list, and we carry on until we are left with just one race. Rankings will be added later to show the order in which the races were eliminated, so the first one to be eliminated will be considered the 'worst'. You are allowed a vote once every 24 hours, with voting resetting at 00:00 GMT.
30/10: Additionally, you are not allowed to vote for a race that you voted for in your previous entry.

I'm voting different editions than before otherwise it's just going to be 'the most active users' favourite GTs'. This should be a rule

I did this as well, but yes that's probably a good idea to stop people with a vendetta constantly voting down one race in particular, for example. I propose: you're not allowed to vote for a race that you voted for in your previous entry (effective from now on, although I think everyone has followed the rule up until now anyway)
