    Well done Mattheww.

    But a small question for the sake of MSE democracy, why did Mattheww's post win with 20 votes when alanshave's wine thread got 23 votes?

    The winner for April is Mattheww for his cheap freesias post here.

    I would like to thank everyone that voted for my post. I've only just discovered MSE and it is the best thing since sliced bread. I vow from this day forth to tell everyone I know about MSE and its obvious virtues.

    So, what happens next?

    In fact its not a case of "voting" for the POTM, members are asked to nominate a POTM and then Martin makes his choice from those nominations icon7.gif

    I think alot of the people voted for, deserved something and they got it, thanks from people who liked their post. But in the end only one person can win.

    Well done mattheww :D

    why should martin get to make the finaldecision?

    I'd say that posts that are more relevant/ useful to us all were nominated this month..surely those should be the 'top' and surely you should base the winner on m.s.e users votes!?


    edit- but still..well done matthew - must have been a nice welcome to the board for you! hope you stick around..
