Edit: Look at it this way. Would Batty allow someone to vote in his Metal Survivor thread who decided they wanted to vote after the deadline set? For all his slagging of me about rules, it's his own rules that allow his thread to thrive and go forward, and you can be sure he wouldn't change them or make an exception for one person. I believe his answer would be something like "If you don't like it, **** off out of my thread."
I spent a lot of time and energy putting this together and trying to make it work, and I'm not about to dismantle it or change it because one newb isn't happy with how it's run.

Depends on the elapsed time. If other people have already started voting on the new battle then hell no. You're officially interrupting the thread. But if they're a few hours late, even if I've already done the pain in the ass work of counting the votes and updating the OP, then I don't mind. I'd rather get a more representational result than be a slave to the rules.
