Well...
hope you don't mind me joining in on the 'kind of bummed out' theme here --containers and beyond--

I do know how the results are presented--it is the same as last year where lots of folks wondered the same questions.

The results are ordered according to the number of votes received, and in the case of containers that is a high of 27 and a low of 1.
The photos that received no votes are not displayed.
So, the first few pages are photos that received multiple votes and the last however-many pages are photos that received a single vote. Vote numbers after fifth place are not publicized so there is no way to know when the two-vote photos end and the single-vote photos begin.
Photos that have the same number of votes are displayed in random order.
With all of the single-vote photos in random order, essentially tied for "last place" if you will, it can certainly give the impression that a bucket ranked higher than a propane tank that ranked higher than a container with plants in it, when they may have ranked exactly the same.

Hope that helps.

...and I also vote for more votes! three is just not enough

When I saw that glorious bird Lovey dubby I knew I didn't need to vote for it in the first round because I would see it in the second round and vote for it then--so I voted for my distant runner-up little bee because I love that little bee and I didn't want her to be left out Crying is that terrible?
