It seems that the best solution is to reset the entire poll. Let it run on an extra week to make up for the lost time. I cant see what harm it could do. Regardless, what community there is that is currently active have voiced their opinion on the matter and it does seem to suggest that they disagree with what has happened. That alone does not warrant a reversal of staff decision - however it does warrant looking at a possible solution that would be fair for everyone.

For what its worth - I think that the mods made the best decision at the time with the information they had. However there are times when the best intentions are not always the best solutions. Be big enough to say 'crap, I miscalled that one.'

Also for what its worth - after the hoo haw, I downloaded both systems and from my point of view, v3arcade is far better. Its coded from scratch, far cleaner and better written. Thats not to say the other isn't good and has its merits - its just to point out that regardless of my preference, fair is fair. You cant punish someone for a rule that is unpublished and enforced sporadically.

Reset the entire poll, and leave it open until the end of January. Leave January's as-is normal. Who cares if the two overlap?

Just my yule log for the fire
