Firefly, a present from two DS Firefly Fans.

Thanks again, DSF54! That's a mighty shiny picture of our Captain! Oh, and those other fellas...

Mornin', Browncoats! GLORIOUS SHINY stats BOMP!

Alright, here's what we got for our efforts, yesterday: WE DID THE IMPOSSIBLE! 2,858 VOTES! We beat Xena's top score, 2,803, by 55 votes. SHINY SHINY SHINY! Moonlight has held the top daily vote totals for the past 22 consecutive days; we also beat their score, yesterday, 1,654, by 1,204 votes, another record, this one for best positive daily vote differential over the next highest voting show! Our previous record in that category was 999 daily votes over Xena, last year.

The missus and I put in 24 total votes on our IP, yesterday (6:49am yesterday-5:53 am today, as well as the 11 votes she put in from work), including Bonanza, BSG, Buffy, Jericho, Angel, Babylon 5, Ponderosa, Dark Shadows, Blood Ties, all our friends with whom we share our success. We're on a sprint for the finish, Browncoats! Let's make sure the whole team gets across the finish line!

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

Also many thanks to those Big Damn Heroes who have been adding votes for Ponderosa and Bonanza! With our help (which our new westerns friends are graciously returning) Bonanza has reached their goal of 500,000 votes, and have been awarded a stand-alone, all day banner for their achievement! Congratulations to the Cartwright clan and their fans!

Dark Shadows is fighting hard to reach 150k, at 5.54 (7.06) days out, EXACTLY on schedule, with no wiggle room. However, with sustained intensified weekday voting, they could still find themselves behind, again! The Barnabas Browncoats were instrumental in helping achieve our unbroken record of 75 consecutive days at 1,000+ daily votes; many thanks to those who are boosting our friends towards their goal!

Babylon 5 is also 3.95 (5.67) days from reaching 200k, just TWO days ahead of the projected end of the Poll! They may be quiet, but the Babylonians have been good friends to us. Let's help get 'em over the finish line!

An estimated 5.69 (7.33) days remain to vote, based on current rates of voting, and Firefly is now FOUR days AHEAD of schedule!

Our ultimate goal, 750,000, is 4,437 (7,295) votes, and 1.55 (4.22) days away (based solely on yesterday's total)! We need to maintain a minimum daily average of 740 (912) votes for the balance of the Poll to stay on track.

Total votes Firefly: 745,563 (742,705)

Yesterday, Firefly received 2,858 (1,730) votes, 1,128 more than the previous day. We should all be very proud of that, Browncoats! We're closing in on the end of the Poll, and with the help of all our friends (now including the Bonanzais and Jericho Rangers), we're gonna make it to 750k!

We'll get our next banner, for 745,000 votes, tomorrow!

Especially now, every vote we fail to cast is lost forever; we won't always have "tomorrow" to make it up! Let's keep up the hard burn, show everyone our Browncoat Fan Power, and clinch our final milestones!

ALL three links work for voting, so if you have trouble, you can try an alternate address instead.

You can vote for more as many Top 40 shows as you like, once every hour. You can only nominate one show per hour, at:

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

Download the FlyVote voting timer, a NEW version of the program. It'll remind you when it's time to vote, each hour: http://usbmicro.com/misc

Votes are counted per network IP, so, don't go to the library or your office and vote hourly on each computer on the subnet, or all votes will be thrown out; multiple votes on rotating IPs will likewise be rejected.

8,239,954 (8,217,479) Top 40 votes have been counted as of 08/07/08. Yesterday, 22,475 (20,335) votes were cast.

In other TV Vote news (shows whose voters also support Firefly and the Whedonverse, so, let's return the favor, shiny? We accomplish more together than we would separately!)...

#5 show Battlestar Galactica got 869 (618) votes, not receiving enough votes to pass #4 show Gunsmoke by the end of the Poll.

The Colonials need urgent help! Please lend 'em a hand!

#6 show Buffy the Vampire Slayer got 1,229 (802) votes, yesterday, not receiving enough votes to pass #5 show BSG by the end of the Poll. Buffy's numbers are still sufficient to hold off #7 show Farscape.

#9 show Angel got 1,071 (813) votes, yesterday, not receiving enough votes to pass #8 show Jericho by the end of the Poll.

#13 show Babylon 5 got 565 (493) votes, yesterday, not receiving enough votes to pass #12 show Little House on the Prairie by the end of the Poll. B5's numbers are still sufficient to hold off #14 show Stargate SG-1. B5 is also 2,231 (2,796) votes, and 3.95 (5.67) days from reaching 200,000 votes!

Lets help the Babylonians reach their final goal!

Dark Shadows got 529 (490) votes, yesterday, passing Star Trek: The Original Series, which got 397 (389) votes! Dark Shadows is the new #23 show, today!

Dark Shadows will reach 150,000 votes in another 2,932 (3,461) votes, and 5.54 (7.06) days. At current rates of voting they are just EXACTLY on schedule to reach that final goal before the end of the Poll!

C'mon, Browncoats! Let's help our friends the Vampire Flans achieve their final goal!

#34 show Blood Ties got 687 (780) votes, yesterday, and is on track to pass #33 show The Man from U.N.C.L.E., which got 264 (292) votes, yesterday, in 2.43 (2.97) days.

Let's help the Fitzroyals advance, and mebbe stay ahead of Moonlight!

#35 show Moonlight got 1,654 (1,861) votes, yesterday, and is on track to pass Blood Ties, which got 687 (780) votes, in 3.07 (3.64) days, as well as The Man from U.N.C.L.E., which it will pass at about the same time, in 2.87 (3.43) days.

Yours in the cause,

-Raycheetah =^[.]^=

P.S.: I snerched this quote about us, 'cause I am never disappointed in my shiny Browncoat brothers and sisters when opportunity arises to prove it:

"Once again, the Browncoats have proven to be both an intelligent and generous group of people in a world where each quality sometimes seems to be in very short supply." - Chris Buchanan

Part of the reason we got the record is by the
support from Combat! fans, who have been voting
for Firefly. Please return the favor and vote
for Combat! so they may reach 250,000 and enter

Many congratulations to our Bonanzai friends, Ellen... And I happen to have it on good authority that our triumph yesterday was in part due to those very same folks. Nice to be able to contribute to and to share in each other's successes!

Happy dance VOMP!

Slipping behind here, though.

Perhaps when TVvote closes shop, efforts can be re-focused at tvtally?

You know what the first rule of flyin' is? Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds. And love keeps her in the air when she oughtta fall down… tells ya she's hurtin' 'fore she keels… makes her a home.

WESTERNMARSHAL

Congratulations Firefly fans for such a huge get out the vote turnout yesterday. I even voted the few times I could yesterday for Firefly and I've been voting mostly for Gunsmoke, Bonanza and Combat! Speaking of which, both Angel (never really watched a lot of Angel but surely love David Boreanaz as Agent Booth) and Combat! are neck and neck for the 250,000 TV Hall of fame, it would be a shame for both shows to have come so far and miss it by maybe a few hundred or thousand votes. So while we vote for Firefly to reach their goal of 750,000 could we all vote Angel and Combat! into the 9th and 10th place in Rich's TVHoF? For those not familiar with Combat! it is a WWII military show that follows a tight knit squad of men on their journey through Europe just after D Day. Many of us oldtimers remember watching Combat! in its original run with our dads who had been there. Thanks to all who take up the challenge and once again a huge congratulations to Firefly for achieving so many goals and setting so many benchmarks for other shows.
