In June, 2010, British Sci Fi magazine announced the results of a "Top 50 Vampires of all time" poll which had Josef Kostan and Mick St. John positioned at #17 and #4 respectively. (The results are linked at the reference below.)

They are redoing the poll given there has been so much activity in this genre. Voting continues till Jan 3.

At the very least, you will have to clear cookies. I tried voting twice, and got told "thanks, we already counted your vote."

Pretty good for only sixteen episodes that aired in 2007 and 2008 is all I have to say.

Well, that and the fact that style, class and quality...endures. :teeth:

Where on earth could they find nineteen vampires better than Mick????????? Now that's just bizarre...

Actually, Mick was #4 the first time they ran this poll. So he dropped a bit. But considering the number of years that have passed, 20 is pretty good.

And many vamp fans were astounded to see him as #4... I think even the publishers were shocked. So maybe 20 is more in line with the reality in the general vamp fandom. But he didn't go away. So. :biggrin: .

Mick dropped 16 and Josef dropped 15, but just think about how many "new" vampires came on the scene since the last poll. Eight of the vamps that came in ahead of Mick are "fresh blood" with current and active fan bases. I think it's a darn good showing. :teeth: :hearts:

...And we weren't allowed to vote multiple times like we did in the poll 18 months ago.

Moonlight Forever!

Exactly. We were at our clicking best back then. But even old and tired, we ranked him. :devil:
