There's no need to roll your eyes at me Baz, the reason I said that is because people indicated to us that they prefer to know the entrants during the Challenge, not at the end.

The general consensus was that it was more pleasurable to run it this way than having it anonymously.

We were also asked to allow the voting progress to be viewable during the voting period, people didn't want to see the poll results only at the end, they preferred to watch the 'race' as it unfolded, in their words "it added excitement to the Challenge."

As I said we ran the Challenge in anonymous mode and the entries dwindled to one or two entries per month, this and the feedback we were getting indicated to us that the majority preferred the original format back so it was changed back to what it is now.

This is a friendly Challenge (not a trial) and I can't for the life of me understand the attitude that has been expressed here for such a basic thing as this.
