Final call for preseason votes!!!!!!!!

Since I now have a somewhat consistent Internet connection, I will
offer to run the rsbb.college poll this year.  I plan for this to be
a bit better run than last season's, as I don't expect to lose my account
halfway through the season.

For those who remember, this will be the same as the poll was run over the
last 3 years or so, started by James Armstrong and continued by me after
he went to the West Coast and lost Internet access.

At the end of this list appears the 298 Division I teams you can choose
from.

I'll post this announcement every week or so up until the first week of the
season.  The poll will be run every week of the basketball season until the
end of the conference tournaments.  There will be an interruption the week of
Christmas.

I will accept preseason poll ballots until November 10, and I will post
the results on Wednesday, November 11.

****Email your ballots to me at:

A sample (please fill in 6-23, too):

1.  Duke
2.  Michigan
3.  Seton Hall
4.  UMASS!!!
5.  Kentucky
6.
...
24. Princeton
25. Prairie View


------

Basically, any team name that is reasonable (UNC, North Carolina; UConn,
Connecticut; Massachusetts, UMass, UMASS!!!; West Virginia, WVU) will
be counted by the software.


You may vote for up to 25 teams.  Less is fine; more is not.  Points are
tallied as (teams on ballot - voting position + 1).  That is, if you submit
25 teams, the top team will receive 25 points.  If you submit a ballot
with 3 teams, your top team will receive 3 points.


I plan to have the software automagically email you a vote request after
you vote the first time.  In this way, I hope to keep voter participation
high.

I have about 20 ballots now.  That's a good start.  Keep 'em comin'!

Thank you for your support.
