    The graph is broken in two. The top section shows each members names, but click lower down, and the bottom section opens up with the books/points. Notice how there is a gap running through the graph, side to side.

    As for the results so far, i'm not surprised.

    Do you see it now? The votes/results will ascend from 21st place slowly towards 1st place. One result per post/image.

    Can you send me a printscreen of what you are seeing? It seems IMGUR becomes a bit of a pain in the ass....

    I see that top, with the voter names. On the pc, nothing else. On the phone, some random photo below.

    Why not just type it out?

    I can't really see it either. The last one is a bit clearer but it's still confusing me as it seems to go 20, 19, 10 (guessing that's a typo)? I also don't understand the members names with the numbers. Is that where they ranked it in their top ten?

    Would you mind just typing out the full results instead of doing these graph things one at a time?

    No, the scores are at the end, so:
    009 points (19th place)
    005 points (20th place)
    000 points (21st place)

    The nr's at the start are the publication/chronology nr's. So "The Hildebrand Rarity" appeared earlier than the other two short stories.

    So:
    10. 1960: Ian Fleming's "THE HILDEBRAND RARITY" (short story, chronology: 1958) --> 009 points (19th place)

    19. 1963: Ian Fleming's "THE PROPERTY OF A LADY" (short story, chronology: 1961) -->
    005 points (20th place)

    20. 1963: Ian Fleming's "007 IN NEW YORK" (short story, chronology: 1961) --> 000 points (21st place)

    You can zoom out / in of the picture. I do it this way, because I want to give full transparency. People need to know how they voted exactly.

    To be honest I think people just want the results. It has been two years after all. Couldn't you just type out an easy to read list of the finished results and then do another post afterwards with the extra details for those who are interested? Or even if you want to do it this way, I don't understand why the results have to be spread out over so many posts rather than just posting the full graph.

    For the excitement ;-). It also forces people to focus a bit on the book/story that's being revealed atm. Thus creating some extra discussion material. Just have a look at this poll:
