Can you imagine how many votes that would generate for both? Just enough to get us all even. I'd like to see the voting if we were all neck and neck. I'm talking ludicrous numbers here. Then it would really be a fair contest.
I posted on the Bonanza forum congratulating them on a good fight and mentioning that our little show has western elements and they might like it. You can see the post (sans formatting) here: http://bonanzaworld.net/forums/archive/index.php/t-21587-p-7.html although to see it properly formatted it seems an account on the site is required. The first half-paragraph is a quote from one of their members earlier in the thread, but you can't tell that on the archive page.
Let's see if that helps us at all :)

Aww. Just got this response to my post on bonanzaworld, from Ellen:
"Hey, sab39 - please pass on to the other Browncoats our congratulations. Hopefully a little banter doesn't offend anyone.
It's really great that there are so many fan communities out there - something for everyone!"
Nice of them :)

Just a thought--maybe we could try shuffling the name of the thread around. When you're used to seeing similarly named threads, you just stop seein' 'em, if you take my meaning. E.g., I'm not one of the Imponderablers, so I hardly even notice their threads. Maybe if we mixed things up on that front, we'd recruit some more. Also, adding a line to your signature about voting for Firefly might raise awareness.
I'm definitely giving it some thought... Problem is, the one time I changed the name completely, even I had trouble finding it!

Hmmm, perhaps "Xena kicks Firefly's tookus" or some such... That should generate a few hits

Yea...that might get you a little attention. Might get you labelled a troll too.

If you read the whole page on the Bonanza site, you'll find that a lot of the westerns are voting as a block, and that even Combat! is part of that group. The Bonanzai are even voting for shows that have nothing to do with Bonanza except that old cast members appear in them.
I don't understand why Joss's fans aren't voting for all of his shows every time they vote. Buffy, at least, is a match for Firefly's excellence, even if Angel fell a little short IMHO. Can you imagine a Whedon/BSG/Lexx/ etc. alliance?

Thank you for the support! By the way, I forgot. Did I mention the deal with Roswell? They are voting for you too, they joined our block.
Perhaps someone could mention the block on the Whedon site?

That's right kindly of them! Regrettably, I can do nothing more for them since I've been voting for 'em ever since I bought the series box set.
