I know. Just find it surprising. Also surprised Vintage MX Blacks isn't on there either.

Those two would have had my votes :)

Right. Like I said, I just find it surprising that they weren't nominated.

Haha, I don't think of MX much, so I didn't nominate it, but Vintage MX Black is my favorite MX switch for sure.

Ergo Clears are also what I'd consider another top tier switch in the MX world. :)

It's all a grand conspiracy. I also have President Kennedy's brain.

I would have welcomed further nominations, frankly. I'm sad to see that some people missed opportunities to nominate things they like. On the other hand, you can nominate those switches every year for the foreseeable future.

Visit again next year to nominate the things you think are missing!
