This is my favourite skyscraper in the world and it's recognized everywhere as an architectual triumph, yet these people seem to think it's a pile of crap. Interesting eh?

I don't think it's unnecessary. The only people who would seriously give the Bank of China Tower such a low rating are people who are being dishonest. If you notice, not a single person actually admitted in this thread that he or she voted "3 or less" for this tower... before you of course, but you wouldn't have voted that way if I hadn't posted my list anyway, so that doesn't count

And Nygirl always says how much she loves the Bank of China Tower and yet she voted 3 or less! I love catching people like that.

As to how I found out who voted... it's a secret

There's only 34 ppl voting 3 in NYskyline, but there's 81 ppl voting 3 in HKskyline.
But so what, this kind of poll does not mean anything.
D-Mac, you are a computer master.

Oh, btw, i have a drawing to share:

With regards to how much of a "hater" I am of HK, and my maturity level, let my conduct thus far and from this moment on speak for itself.

Granted, I do live to regret my moment of folly months ago in not taking these polls seriously. Never was I to realise that a few seconds of totlessness could have such a major repercussion after such a long time.

There was more then enough time to regain one's senses. If there is an option to change the vote, I most probably would today.

Actually I'd like to make some things clear:

-everybody has a right to vote any score they want
-everybody has a right to say what score they gave or keep silent

Now huaiwei has already mentioned that he voted 3 because he wasnt taking the poll seriously. Now he didnt have to but he did, so give him a break. The sad truth of any poll here is that the '3 or less' poll always throws up many surprises, as well as biased voting for '10'. This applies to other buildings and cities as well.

@DMac, now it was a very juicy thing to do, revealing confidential poll results in public, but you know that is against forum etiquette. As a former mod I am sure you know the extreme importance of being confidential here. Please dont do this again.

Lets move on from here and rate this building!
Great drawing by Sher!
