Photos Minipoll Result

Well the Minipoll on photos has now closed and I can reveal that 98% of votes were in favour of having photos of the T-shirts on the blog. And so, as J-L Picard would say, we will 'make it so'. The votes were 100% in favour until the last minute when a last straggler voted for only showing the winning T-shirts - perhaps a backlash to seeing Nick's 'bodybuilder' pose in today's T-shirts?

So a new poll begins. Over the weekend, a keen observer asked 'How about if someone (partner, friend, doting parent) gives a contestant a new/different T-shirt to boost their Longevity chances?'. Thanks, Mrs Pitman for your question... let's put it to the masses.

Can friends/family unilaterally affect the result of an otherwise just contest, or should we ban the giving of T-shirts during the contest? Or should we only allow presents when presents are appropriate e.g. birthdays, weddings and Bar Mitvahs?

Vote now, and keep voting through the week.

Gifts of extra T-shirts should only be permitted when appropriate - not for the purposes of bolstering the supply of available T's for use in the competition.

You need to lock down on the rules here. Otherwise there will be all sorts of shenanigans, people "picking at the seams" of a previously worn t-shirt, and claiming it is now a different shirt...and perhaps other devious T-shirt tampering!

Who will be the first to "take a bung", deliberately wearing a boring, misshapen, dowdy T-shirt, and throwing the match?
