Jericho Fans Seem To Have Noticed We Broke A Record
(OK, actually we achieved a milestone)

We are now less than 2,000 (1989) behind Jericho. At this rate, in 84 days we pass them. Early May. But it appears that they might becoming aware of their impending doom.

From the TVTally "Top 25 Shows" overall score page ( http://www.tvtally.com/shows/overalltop.php?top=25),

Date Gain Jericho Firefly Daily Votes
2/1 14 65 79
2/2 40 55 95
2/3 24 38 62
2/4 15 43 58
2/5 15 43 58 (identical stats are a coincidence)
2/6 42 41 83
2/7 22 54 76
2/8 7 78 85
Overall the total vote at the beginning of the week is Jericho 44281 (43919 last week), Firefly 42167 (41565 last week) We are 2114 behind, versus 2354 a week ago. A year ago, we were ahead. Over the last few weeks, we have been closing the gap.

The absentee operator of TVTally, or someone with sysadmin privs, showed up in January to do some site maintenance. Several things have changed. First, the cookie monster has been tamed somewhat. By using a browser with cookies turned off, you can now only vote three times for one show every six hours, not six times. Second, the message boards have disappeared. This was the only way, in theory, for the site admin and users to communicate (no one ever responds when tvtally@gmail.com is used). Now it's all gone (and I posted the last message, last November, I hope that wasn't the cause). There was sort of, it seems, a third fix. The weekly totals are not yet correctly returning to zero, but they are apparently returning to the same bad numbers they did last week (and maybe forever after. This nonsense began three weeks ago, where tvtally weekly numbers did not roll over to zero. Instead what showed up was larger numbers, with Jericho in the lead. Many other shows got numbers other than zero. This does not have any impact on the overall totals. It's just confusing. But apparently the Jericho fans believe it, because their voting has slacked off. Ours remains strong. Let's keep it that way.

If you turn off cookies on your browser, when you go to TVTally, you can vote up to three (used to be six) times (and for more than one show, or all for one show). You can also vote more than once in six hours (unpredictable, tends to happen early in the day, and after 6 PM). Some consider this cheating, some don't. Either you're a cookie monster, or you ain't.

At BBC today we are; Serenity 41.54% Star Wars 29.79% Blade Runner 17.28% Planet of the Apes 1.84% The Matrix 9.55% 42187 Votes Cast
