You've probably answered surveys in the past about your favorite (and unfavorite) cards or what you consider to be the most powerful/most useless cards in the game. This contest is something of a popularity contest with a twist – you're going to select a card that you think will be most unpopular for selection by other entrants in the contest. Here's how it works:

Select the one personnel card which you think will be selected by the smallest number of other contest entrants. If there is more than one personnel card with that exact name (e.g., there are three Deanna Troi cards, from premiere, First Contact, and The Borg), you must identify which set your selection comes from.

Your entry will be worth X points, where X = total number of contest entries (including yours) that listed that card. The entry with the lowest X score will be the winner. So if the personnel card you choose is also named by 9 other people, your score will be 10. If you manage to come up with a personnel card that no one else selects, your score will be 1. In case of a tie (everyone could get a score of 1!), one winner will be selected at random. Remember, only one entry per person.

The Winner

We received 702 entries. After eliminating 24 that did not include an email address, 3 that did not list a card title, 12 that were multiple entries from the same entrant, and 12 that were not personnel cards (including three votes for Barber Pole!), 651 valid entries remained. Of these, 441 were for cards that received more than one entry (X was greater than 1). Mot the Barber was the runaway leader with 29 entries, with Wesley Crusher a distant second with 11. But even such obscure personnel as Makla'Gor got multiple entries (4 for that particular Jem'Hadar).

That left 210 cards that were so unpopular (for this contest, at least) that they received only one entry each. A random selection gave the prize to Ryan Yaeger, of Lacona, NY, whose entry was The Traveller.
