Anyone want to do the math properly and see if there's any way we could pull that off?



I hope we can beat them to 200K as well but they've stepped it up as well. Its hard not to be happy getting 3 or 4 days straight at 1400+ but the Xenites are just really kicking ass lately. I mean, 1555...wow.

Just ran the numbers using weekly averages:
Bonanza is averaging 796 v/d. They are projected to hit 200K in 8 days (Saturday, March 24).

Firefly is averaging 1,272 v/d. We are projected to hit 200K in 10 days (Monday, March 26), overtaking Bonanza the following day.

We need some combination of:
Bonanzai maintain weekly average votes, we need
1,547 votes/day to tie
1,754 votes/day to win

We maintain our weekly average votes, Bonanzai must fall to:
663 v/d for us to tie.
589 votes/day for us to win

As our beating them to 200K also means us passing them for the #2 slot, I wouldn't plan on the Bonanzai backing off. If anything, I'd expect them to rally all the harder. That leaves it for us to step up.

It's a good day to die folks. 'Course that isn't plan 'A'. Let's smash a few records!

Well the 'B's are pulling about 800 votes a day and with 5310 votes to go they should break the 200k mark in 7 days. we need 10523 votes so to tie them we need to put up a bit over 1500 votes per day. To flat out beat them we need a bit over 1750 votes per day.

Does anybody know 30 people who can put ten votes a day in that aren't already voting?

Every fear has a history.

Well, I'm trying to do more today. I can vote 6 times per hour right now using other peoples computers at work. Of course, I'm going to be able to that most Friday's for awhile.

Another bump in honor of Alan's B-Day!

It would be I would get most poetical about my bump.
