Update Vote Count: “Best Cryptozoologist”

Thank you for enjoying yourself and voting for the “Best Cryptozoologist.” We have now broken all records set in 2006, thanks to Cryptomundians.

As you may recall, Paul Kimball opened his “2007 Zorgy Awards” for voting, based on the nominations he had received, a few days ago. He included a new category for voting this year (9th down on his list): “Best Cryptzoologist.”

Here’s an update: Kimball reports that the folks from Cryptomundo are “rocking the vote” in his tallies. Of all the polls, as of mid-November, the “cryptozoologist” one is getting the most votes. The others have barely brought in half as many votes, and yet your involvement has garnered over 455 votes for cryptozoologists. Thank you for your support of me in the voting, and it appears I have an early lead. But, there’s about 45 days to go and I can’t let my guard down.

If you decide to click for me, I would appreciate your vote. Hey, I’m not above continued campaigning. It runs in the blood of most Americans, I suppose, and it’s an election year. As it turns out, I am the only American on the list, and a Scottish-Cherokee-American to boot.

The three other nominees are from the UK, and one, Nick Redfern, is also running for “Best Ufologist,” so his fans have a backup plan. (Indeed, as an update, Redfern is making a good run at taking over the ufologist, ufomystic, and ufo hall of fame voting. I’m watching my cryptozoological flank against that ufo dude.) 🙂

So go vote. No comments here. Let your votes do the talking for cryptozoology. Have fun.

Let’s see if by the sheer numbers of cryptozoology votes, a statement can be made, as the Zorgys become the new Oscars in this genre.

Loren Coleman About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015. Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
