Observation:
The other day I was rearanging my desk & had to unplug my hub for a few moments. I plugged it back in, and a bit later FlyVote pops up to remind me another hour has past. When I tried to vote, I got the 500 Error. I had to reboot my computer anyway to get my email back (Lotus Chokes can't deal with a loss of connection (as installed here)), and when I restarted FlyVote the vote went through clean.
This morning I came in, and got the 500 Error again. Rebooted, and was able to vote again.

Posit:
Connectivity was lost at some point, and one end or t'other can't agree on whose to blame so you get an error, and can't vote.

Test:
If you ever get a 500 Error, reboot your computer and try again.
Post results here until we get enough (good or bad) to decide if this is a fix or I'm just gettin' lucky.

Thank Universal for airing Firefly in HD at
http://universalhd.com/Firefly/

Heh. tvtally episode votiing is a complete joke. Yesterday none of the firefly episodes were in the top 50; today it is back to the top (well, #2 behind the buffy episode).

Personally, I recommend boycotting the episode voting until they get their act together. It is a true waste of effort and -is- engendering bad feelings amongst the fan communities... look at the forum there.

Note: I appreciate JLIN is taking the high road and suggesting we vote up Firefly episodes.

If you want to help foster good feelings with our buddies over at buffy, I recommend -instead- that you vote for "Once more with feelings" (or perhaps "as well"), then post in the forums you are doing so since you understand the episode voting there is so poor you won't vote for firefly episodes in protest; but will help out our buffy buddies in helping defend their show from "1 spammers".

First - instead of a full reboot - try just restarting FlyVote.

There was a thread that I think was active less than 10 days ago that had a reply posting listing Firefly / Serenity merchandise. The subject I don't remember, but the reply basically listed all of the "things" that you can buy related to Firefly. I remember that it has a picture of the current Firefly guide book (first few episodes) and the next Firefly guide book (Volume 2?), the DVDs, the comic, as well as a graphic of a reaverized Serenity (a purchased model?).

Can anyone help me find the thread? I'm having a hard time finding it again.

Was it this thread you were looking for?
www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=27388

A few posts down Anonymous1 lists all the merchandise that's currently available.

Now, don't get distracted by all the shiny goodness, we need you voting and bumping.

That's it! I LOVE YOU! Well, as much as anyone can love a turnipy odour... Perhaps "love" is a bit strong...

-cough-

Many thanks, fellow browncoat. I probably just didn't scroll down far enough on all of the threads that I checked (and checked again). A big mug of Mudder's Milk for you!

Oh hell - a round of Mudder's Milk for everyone.

(I'm working on a Mudder's Milk recipe.)

I won't get distracted - I'm a voting, bumping machine!

Well, I'm using a machine to vote and bump.

I bumped into a voting machine once...
