18 votes so far, well done to everybody who voted
I agree with you Blue Swan, I would like to see about 40 votes. The possibility to vote will remain at least until the end of this month.
With 642 registrered members, I'd say 40 ought to be possible.

If you deduct the number of registered members that are aliases of a particular member and a couple which are aliases of his maid of honour, we probably have about 150 'real' members, so making 40 entries could be a bit of a struggle.

You you count those who post regularly the number is even lower, 40 is difficult to reach

Don't be so pessimistic - the top 100 users have all made at least 359 posts, which would make them fairly active, I'd say.
30 should be very possible, at least.

Just out of statistical curiosity: Why 40 votes? And what do you mean be reliable?

But of course not. I was merely hoping to benefit from your insights

OK then, I simply applied the formula:
(N + E) / (G x Q) = W
Where N is the number of PSB chart hits (38 )
E is the number of PSB forum members (642)
G is the magic number (3)
Q is the reliability factor, which, naturally, is 5.6667
W is, as any mathematician can see, the minimum number of user votes it would take to make the poll "reliable".
As one can easily see, it all adds up to 40!
