I think Moon Gate has been boosted to the top artificially. Everyone who voted for it has only voted for one book, and I can't see where any of them have actually notated that they read it. I could be mistaken, but just FYI.

Well caught. They are also all upvoting the same books on different lists. Removed.

I messaged but had no reply. Perhaps someone else should do one? Or do we just let it go? I've got my own to run so I'm hoping someone might take over running this yearly one since it's now 20th January? Post here with the link if you do?
