Got my Moonlight, John Doe, and Red Dwarf nom's in.

A Surface or two more, as well.

Upcoming VOMP (Surface) in 20

Probably won't be able to post, so thought I'd let you know ahead of time, that I'm still right there for you guys (and us)

Wacky - Thanks so much. It's so good to see the support.

I was really bummin' about these low totals for the last couple of days. (See my above Daily Report post if you haven't)

You really rock.




Heyya, Jstn! Hang in there; you're among Browncoats, and, we remember our friends!

As for WackyNephew, he's a great guy, and, a good example! I remember his help when Dark Shadows was still struggling to get out of the Noms and into the Top 40.

We hold VOMP!

A long work day comes to an end. A good voting goes a long way to making it all better.

It feels good to vote. Do it today, do it often.

Take two votes and blog in the morning.

I lied. Posted anyway.

#14 VOMP for today.

Can anyone explain to me how it is that my crew of a dozen, is giving Firefly about 80 votes a day, but Firefly fans are giving us 9 or 10 out of the roughly 1000 cast for your show every day?????

Somehow that doesn't seem right.

Hmmmm

Well, lessee... Awareness, and, inclination. Awareness, as in, of the couple hundred folks worldwide who vote for Firefly, how many do you think follow this thread, to know they oughtta be noming Surface?

Inclination, as in, how many Surface voters do you think actually also vote Firefly, or, feel any real need to?

Sad truth is, you can't reach everyone with the message about a friendly exchange of help. That's why I've never liked "vote trades," where quid pro quo is mandated, so, feelings get hurt, when the expected 100% participation isn't forthcoming. And, even those you do reach, not all of 'em are ever gonna participate. Some folks, like WackyNephew, are the soul of friendly generosity.

Others, you might consider yourself lucky that they're votin' for Firefly, let alone anything else, for a variety of reasons, which are purely their own, and, not to be questioned by the likes of you or me. Bottom line, even among the informed, participation is seldom more than a small percentage, at best, in an arrangement such as this.

For my part, I still haven't had time to watch all (or, even most) of Surface, but, I recognize kindred spirits, and, so, I am happy and proud to help out, and, when I look at the daily numbers for Surface, I share the elation and the disappointment, depending on how the votes came down, that day. I cast two, mebbe three of my Noms for Surface, in addition to those I cast for other shows whose voters happen to be friends of mine. The rest, a somewhat reduced majority, I cast for my choice, right now, the guy with the pointy teeth.

So, I think we're doin' about as well as we can, what with those we've informed. Me, I'm gonna help my friends, including the Surface fans, not 'cause I expect them to generate a lotta votes, but, 'cause they're my friends... VOMP!

(Surface!)

Manual mornin' stats VOMP!

(Ruddy stumpy!)

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote

http://www.richlabonte.net/tvvote

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/index.html

ALL three links work for voting, so if you have trouble getting into the site in heavy traffic you can try an alternate address instead. I recommend bookmarking them all, for rapid transition, if you have trouble voting.

You can only nominate one show per hour, at:

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/nominations.html

Voting efficiently (i.e., with minimal time between votes, over the requisite 60 minutes) is crucial to maximizing your voting power. Download FlyVote by FlyVote (a fellow Browncoat voter, so, you know the program is good!). It'll remind you when it's time to vote, each hour: http://usbmicro.com/misc

Top two shows as of this morning:

(Statistics in parentheses are previous day's stats, for comparison purposes)

Total votes Firefly: 580,194 (579,135)

Total votes Xena: 473,000 (472,294)

Yesterday, Browncoats voted 1,059 times (1,069).

Yesterday, Xenites voted 706 times (702).

(Xenites voted 353 (367) times less than Browncoats, yesterday.

Yesterday, Browncoat votes fell by 10; Xenite votes rose by 4.

Firefly is 107,194 (106,841) votes ahead of Xena, more than the vote total of #23 show House MD 107,089. That puts us at 17,806 (18,159) votes away from a 125k vote lead, about 50.44 (49.48) days!

We got our next banner, for 580,000 votes, today! Shiny!

Our next big goal, 600,000 votes, is 19,806 (20,865) votes, and, 18.7 (19.52) days away!

6,191,156 (6,177,618) votes have been counted as of 03/06/08. Yesterday, 13,538 (13,394) votes were cast. In order to take ownership of 10% of all votes cast in that period, we needed to vote 1,354 (1,340) times, of which we fell short by 295 votes. Our share fell to 9.3713361% (9.3747298%) of all votes ever cast. Our share of the voting pie remains at 9%.

-Raycheetah =^[.]^=

In other TV Vote news (shows whose voters also support Firefly):

#5 show Battlestar Galactica got 589 (567) votes, and, is currently receiving enough votes to overtake #4 show, Gunsmoke, which got 381 (362) votes, yesterday, in 180.33 (183.99) days. BSG is also in pursuit of the 5th Hall of Fame slot, and, is 24,832 (25,421) votes, and, 42.16 (44.83) days, away!

#7 show Buffy got 589 (589) votes, yesterday. Currently, Buffy is receiving enough votes to pass #6 show Farscape, which received 385 (407) votes, yesterday, in 98.23 (109.74) days. Buffy is also in pursuit of the 6th Hall of Fame slot, and, is 52,369 (52,958) votes, and, 88.91 (89.91) days, away, while Farscape is 84.68 (81.05) days from getting there, first.

Buffy's still hard charging in the Hall of Fame race!

#11 show Angel got 494 (499) votes, and, is currently receiving enough votes to pass #10 show La Femme Nikita, which received 235 (217) votes, yesterday, in 1.61 (2.4) days. #12 show Little House on the Prairie got 378 (348) votes, and, is not currently receiving enough votes to pass Angel.

#33 show Dark Shadows got 454 (425) votes, and, is currently on track to pass #32 show, Star Trek: DS9, which received 244 (215) votes, yesterday, in 16.73 (17.73) days.

Thanks, again, for your time, and, for your support of these great shows!

P.S.: For those who are interested in Moonlight in the Nominations Poll:

#52 show (#12 in the Nominations Poll) Moonlight Total votes 18,122 (17,804)

Moonlight got 318 (301) votes, yesterday, not passing any shows. It will take at least 7 days to pass Supernatural.

AND...

Surface 3294
Nash Bridges 3235

Only one show passed, BUT, 113 nominations votes! Great job! The shows we're coming up against are starting to have occasional wide gaps between them. So, even if we do as great as we did, yesterday, there may be times we don't pass many shows. Keep your eye on the daily vote total (which is VERY respectable!) and, on how high the aggregate total is getting.
