The thread is http://bonanzaworld.net/forums/showthread.php?t=21587, but you have to be a member to be able to read beyond the first page.


ps: When I try to vote now, I'm getting a Error 404, Page not found. Is it just me?

29th - Firefly(5): 78,210
30th - Firefly(5): 79,318

Only 1108 votes - so disappointing

If tomorrow really is a big voting day, and we can break (dare I say it) the 2000 mark, we might just hit 4th place.

Let's be bad guys!

And I read on their message board that others are experiencing the same problems.

I haven't been able to vote for the past 3 hours!!

I've gotten that error a few times (first thing this morning in point of fact). I went back to the vote page, refreshed it, reselected the shows I vote for, and voted.

Once I did that, there haven't been any problems today. Been voting every hour since 0530EST (GMT-5).

Let's get these bugs worked out folks. Spread the signal as far and wide as you can. I want everyone who wants to vote to be able to vote as often as they can (within the rules). No claims of cheatin' or riggin'. I want the world to see that Browncoats can win a stand-up fight with any and all comers (not just the smartest/most tech savvy).

Hit the 'Delete Files' button (next to Delete Cookies)

In Firefox:

Hold CTRL and then click on the refresh button should reload without using cache.

Otherwise, Tools -> Options; then the Privacy Tab, and then Clear Now button. (If you only want to clear the cache, and not things like stored passwords, then change the settings first)

Thanks, just when I posted the previous one it made a liar out of me.

I'm now able to vote again.

I've blackmailed a few, uhm, friends, into voting tomorrow on VOTE DAY. They all owe me big favours and are repaying it by voting tomorrow. They don't yet know what they are voting for, but I promised to explain.
This is now the new plan for conversion..

It's perfectly normal for the numbers to be so different, since they are so big! We're speaking about hundrets of voters here (including some bulgarians after I joined ;) ) So it's nothing to worry about and I certainly wouldn't call a day with over 1000 votes a spoiled one ;)

Thank you for helping Lexxians too! I will now post a message on our bored telling them how grateful we should be and that we should return the favor :) Besides there is a browncoat among us and he's been there for a long time ;)

I just had to join Bonanzaworld.net to see what they are saying about us. There lame attempts to bring us down are too funny. For example, they predict us youngster will lose steam for voting because our show was on for only half a season. If they only knew how big the following is. From the tone of the posts, they are pretty worried about us squishing them. They also have a conspiracy theory going, saying that the Sci-Fi Genre is teaming up to push Firefly to number one. Hey, great if they are, still honest votes.

Oh yeah, I just voted too!!!

Happy Big Damn Vote Day!
For those of you that don't know already (both of you), today is the day we're hopin' to set a new record (in the 1,500 - 2,000) vote range.
To make that happen, we will need everyone to vote every hour all day long.
Today isn't the only day that you can vote, so be sure to keep voting tomorrow, and the day after and...

Call in your markers, and let your debtors work off a bit of their juice by voting today!

Now then, let's go show Bonanza how to properly 'crush someone like a bug'.

If we tweak our daily closure rate just a bit (as if it were accurate at this range), we could go from 3rd to first on the same day!

Plot the intercept day where Bonanza should pass Xena, and we moon 'em both at the same time.

I wonder what time zone the site uses to determine what day it is. Many Browncoats to the east of wherever midnight is at the richlabonte.net server could be voting in a different day and not even know it.

Well, whatever. Every vote counts no matter what day it is.

Just been over to the Lexx board to see if they where going to enter into a deal with us and someone (posibly fedexxx) has posted to say we are helping them so hopefully they will honour the arrangement.

The funny thing I read was this comment by the same person (again I think it might be Fedexxx, correct me if I am wrong.)

Quote:

Firefly might now make 400 votes, but it's temporary, in a matter of a few weeks they'll be back to 100. While we, die-hard-lexxians will always produce more than 120! Let's keep it that way and make Brian Downey and all other lexx-stars happy!

A little more than 5 hours until the end of the 1st december in Bulgaria, but so far I must have caused at least 50 votes for Firefly!!! I hope this campaign is going to be profitable for Lexx too :) You should know I skipped some of the more boring classes to show some support in exchange for yours :)

BTW less than 1000 votes the last day?!? Perhaps whoever doubled the voter to 1365 got tired? Real shame, imagine if you could get 1500 votes every day... Two slideshows every week :)

OK,

It's 20:30 here now. For me the voting day is over. I just checked the totals on the site and it shows for 1/12/06

Xena: Warrior Princess 156876
Bonanza 121354
La Femme Nikita 88796
Farscape 81849
Firefly 80212

But that is the figures FlatTop posted for the beginning of the day, so maybe we here in Africa get the info a little slow.

Can't wait to see the figures tomorrow!

A little more than 5 hours until the end of the 1st december in Bulgaria, but so far I must have caused at least 50 votes for Firefly!!! I hope this campaign is going to be profitable for Lexx too :) You should know I skipped some of the more boring classes to show some support in exchange for yours :)

BTW less than 1000 votes the last day?!? Perhaps whoever doubled the voter to 1365 got tired? Real shame, imagine if you could get 1500 votes every day... Two slideshows every week :)



I threw in some votes for Lexx as I was voting for Firefly. I must admit, I've never seen Lexx but I wanted to thank all of you for your support.

On a Bonanza note-This from the Bonanzaworld.net:
Firefly hit the 80.000 mark today they had 894 votes, I think they had a goal as well to get the 80.000 together by today so perhaps they stop flying!
Those geezers really don't understand what we are up to here, do they?


Thank Universal for airing Firefly in HD at

Heh, to try to introduce a little "pc" here...
old-geezers - "the great generation"
the folks a bit younger than that "baby boomer"
Younger folks... 'gen x'

I've read with some amusement the characterizations of who is voting for what. "The great generation folk" probably haven't seen a lot of firefly. ... so we are young jobless folks, eh?

Personally, I'm a tail end of the baby boom... 43 year old professional. Been voting for firefly for several weeks now; tho I don't bump regularly I watch this thread for the stats, and closure rates, etc. Work a 45-55 hour work week generally. Mostly vote 3 to 5 times a day; sometimes a bit more on weekends; especially if I'm working sat mornings.

Why vote for firefly? It reminds me a lot of the original star trek series; it is "different" from what is out there; has some good social commentary embedded in like the original trek show, yet good entertainment. Social commentary? Yes sir! Trek featured the first interracial kiss on TV. The episode with the light/dark; dark/light races at war with each other making it so apparent how foolish our current racial bigotry is. Many other examples.

Firefly pokes fun at the big government; intrusive government. I could go on, but I'm sure you can draw out your own observations. I would -really- like to see it be more than the first 14 episodes and a movie. Good stuff here.

BTW, I like Bonanza. It has its own charm, but I just can't see it in the same light as the classic shows I appreciate over time.

Today I'm at 11 votes, and still pushing. As a one off, I don't mind it for a fun day of a "big push"; now you start having "vote ins" every day, and I'll just fall back to my normal habits ;-)

One final comment, I know folks have said you can vote every 58 minutes; but are you sure that hasn't changed? The best I can tell it is a strict 60 minutes.

Later folks!

Hello Fireflyimnotwholewithoutit:

You know your name is longer than some posts.

A bump is just posting to keep a thread on top of the discussion forum. So if you like a thread and want others to see it you just post on it. You don't even have to say anything.

Your post I'm responding to on this thread is a bump and this post I am creating is giving this thread a bump.

Just joking about your name. We have plenty that are as long as yours. And since we have never met before; Hello again FIREFLYimNOTwholeWITHOUTit.

I hope you join in and become an active member. We do discuss Firefly, but we also like to have fun here.
