Considering his whole shtick is, "ironically espouse views I disagree with" this is a good thing right. If he disses something he must really like it.

(snip) colbert has about 200,000, but it's the same people voting over and over again, serenity has about 100,000


According to news reports today ( http://tinyurl.com/c8gz4o) Colbert has about 115,000 and Serenity 98,641. We're still close!

And according to the rules, we can vote everyday right? So lets vote over and over again too!

I highly doubt NASA would go with Colbert, even if it gets the majority of votes, but let's win this thing all the way anyway!!

Great idea, but must have wrong flash player or just doesnt work with WIN2000. You see pix of the station but no place to vote. Might have a prob at the other end, almost half a million votes logged already. Will keep on it.

I guess Colbert resurrected this thread. Soon as I leave here I'll go see if I can't help Serenity get up to 90%.... Space Station Serenity, I like the sound of that.

The Venerable Veteran Hello.

Indeed. Vote Vote Vote. Even though, as ma brudder said, "That dudn't look like Serenity."

It's the life support module for the station, so even though it doesn't look Firefly-ish, it will be Serenity taking care of her crew.

Slipped down to 73%.
Wonder if typing in the search box 'Serenity' (with the enter key held down) would put Serenity on the front page (when you are not voting of course).

Vump.

Back up to 72%. Hold the line. Good thing some of the top votes are MyYearbook, Xenu, etc. Votes like that discredit the write-ins. Serenity will hold. 5 more days people.

Holy..... we're down to 59% ?? Seems someone decided to make us lose on purpose by voting for another name (seems to be Legacy) as much as possible, rather than doing write-ins anymore. Or maybe that's just me being a conspiracy theorist. Why in the world would Serenity be losing by so much unless some of the other campaigns decided other tactics?

There seems to be an error with the counting. I have reloaded the page about three times 2 day and we've been up as high as 83% and down as lo as 48%. Either way, the write-ins are being discredit because of the stupid write-ins like MyYearbook, and Serenity is too far away to be touched in the next 4 days if we just keep voting.

We shouldin addition to voting for serenity also write in "Colbert Crapper" to embarrass the comedian, and maybe have him drop his support.

How awesome would it be to have Serenity's logo on the side of the module?

I mean, they'd have to when Serenity wins the name contest, right?
