Huh
The math is correct. And I'm not one to borrow trouble, but...
In keeping with my personal Hope for the best, plan for the worst; I hesitate to get overly excited lest we look tomorrow and find we've been stripped of most/all of those votes. Breaking 800 is a BIG deal, 900 & I'd be buying a round of drinks. Smashing beyond 1,200 without ever touching close to 850? Does that seem right?

Did someone find a way to get some major bonus votes in? Not that I'm expecting details here, but give us a heads-up please?


Proceeding as if all were well.

Today's numbers:

Votes Gained (Total)
Firefly (5): 1,315 (76,845) We'd better have these when I check tomorrow!
Bonanza (2): 672 (119,244)
Xena (1): 638 (155,105)
Farscape (4): 227 (81,257)
LaFemme (3): 201 (88,194)

Closure Rate (Distance)
Bonanza (2): 643 (42,399)
Xena (1): 677 (78,260)
LaFemme (3): 1,114 (11,349)
Farscape (4): 1,088 (4,412)

Days to Intercept
Bonanza (2): 950
Xena (1): 599
LaFemme (3): 23
Farscape (4): 9

To those that voted for the first time yesterday (a few hundred or so of you?), THANK YOU!! You are doing good works

Keep it up Browncoats!
Unless you're deceivin' us, 'cause nothin's lower than a low down dirty rotten deceiver.

my days to intercept calculations (using the last days votes not an average) give us

Xena 116
Bonanza 66
Nikita 11
Farscape 5

using an average

Xena 732
Bonanza 732
(Third to first in one day, that would make it exciting)
Nikita 21
Farscape 8

If you like sci-fi, please vote for Lexx as well! We're far from a thread to you with our modest 120 votes per day
I'll also vote for Firefly, we don't stand a chance against you anyway... Plus yours is a very good show too!

EvilBungle,
How far back are you reaching for your average calculation?
If our votes hold, I may shift to a 'weekly' average instead of my current 'since I began keeping track (late Sept./early Oct.' average.

I take mine from a 20 day average.

when you said that the votes might not be there in the morning, has that happened before?

Now think real hard. You been bird-dogging this township a while now. They wouldn't mind a corpse of you. Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will bump you.

"Yeah, that went well..."

Yes, it has. On October 9, 2006 Lexx gained 2,134 votes. On October 10, 2006 Lexx lost 1,856 votes . They kept more than their average number of votes, but not near what they had apparently gained.

I do not know what kind of vote verification process is used by RichLabonte.net, but it appears that numbers that are too far out draw attention, and if fraud is detected it is corrected.

I encourage everyone to learn the rules of whatever game they are playing, and to walk right up to the edge of what is allowed. But when Shinanigans is called, make sure you know you are on the legal side of the line.

OK. Dung ee hwar... Before you start freaking out and yelling about
Firefly's record vote today - the Browncoats got 1,315 votes in one day
and believe me when I say we checked and double-checked and this number
is correct - please read the posts at these two Firefly fan boards:



they gave away our secret for 1st December as well, so we have to make sure that is really special now!! I guess our target of 850 will have to be re-thought



Vote Day 1st December 2006 http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/index.html
Together we will triumph.
