I have to say that Con voting still looks weird to me, esp. Con voting by nominees. Here's how you game the system: pick a language that has no chance of winning, and Con everything but that one and your own. Which is equal to Pro voting for yourself for all practical purposes.

 * Hence it is forbidden The Emperor Zelos 17:31, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * ? I vote Con on all but two, mine and someone else's (losing). Or do you mean I would have to pick two losers? I don't think it's going to be difficult either :( Adagio burner 19:20, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * You can vote con on more than one, just not all but your own, atleast 1 else must be non-coned The Emperor Zelos 19:50, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Zelos, you don't seem to have read the above. Let me repeat: I vote con on all but my own plus some language that is bound to lose. The result is equivalent to self-vote. Adagio burner 20:13, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * What is the problem here? You voted on all but yours and one more, then you did fine The Emperor Zelos 20:39, April 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * That is equivalent to self-voting. Then, why ban self-vote? I hate (and won't be) playing the con game, it feels dirty, trying to find flaw in every one's creation. Adagio burner 20:46, April 29, 2010 (UTC)

Voting Rules
To make things clear, you can start voting before the 21st and until the last day (28th) change the votings whenever your heart so pleases. You will vote con or pro for a language, you don't have to do both, if you think it has only con then you vote con and describe why its con or pro. The rules will be these thought:
 * 1) Self voting does not count to the total (There are far too few of us to dilute the effect).
 * 2) Pro vote on oneself is self vote
 * 3) Con vote on everyone else is self vote
 * 4) You may vote cons on all but one as a non-nominee, as nominee it is all but two. Pro votes may go to all but ones own conlang
 * 5) Unregistered voters don't count, but are welcome to post comments and such.
 * 6) Try voting what you think looks best in accordance to these criterias.
 * 7) Realistic, it looks as if it could be real
 * 8) Goal, it reaches the goal it is meant to fullfill, if it intends being universal judge it in accordance, if it tries being natural judge it in accordance.
 * 9) Completeness, how close is it to completion?
 * 10) Bots (ZeBot and Fakultinj) cannot vote at all.
