Rules for this Poll:
- Anyone is allowed to participate (must be a valid member of Listal, though)
- You can provide up to five authors, the first being your favorite of all time. The first receives five points and the last receives one point.
- If you do not put them in order (and please say if you do not), each author will get three points.
- Only the first 100 reactions will be counted.
- When two authors have the same points, the author with the most voters goes ahead.
- When two authors have the same points and the same voters, the first one added goes ahead.
* Copied mostly from Mr. Saturn.
- Any author on Listal is eligible for voting.
- Once your vote is counted, it won't be changed (this goes for me too).

I will attempt to update this list at least once a day, schedule permitting.
