ON#vote_6518795



How ever on the BBC site, there is a poll going on.
Currently Serenity has: 19.78%
and Star Wars has: 42.66%

So we need to get voting on the BBC site!

Y'know, all this 'multiple voting' has given us Browncoats a bad reputation in the fan community.

Whatever happened to "one vote per person"?

People would lose interest in them fast if they couldn't stay involved. I'm sure other fandoms mass vote their shows as well.

I vote to improve the exposure of FF/BDM. Hopefully a few folk have rented/bought FF/BDM based on its exposure in the TV_Vote.

I don't think it's possible to have a worse reputation than the multiple voting other fandoms.

I'm not disagreeing with your point about playing fair... I'm just sayin'. I'm also not sure that the point is playin' fair. For either the site asking us to vote or the voters from each fandom.

I think we're all voting for exposure and because we're loyal to the things we love.

There's fair proof that this did get us exposure!
There's a thread on here re: a morning show being aware of this vote and Serenity's win.
There are folks who will read this poll and the article and think that they might like to check out the upstart movie that beat Star Wars. Perhaps they will even guess that there were rabid fans voting that may have influenced the outcome.
Maybe they'll be intrigued. I would be. I'd want to know what engendered such loyalty. Besides, ultimately they've been given a gift, IMHO. They'll discover Serenity, then Firefly. They'll never be the same whether it touches them enough to join us here and other sites and hope with us, or it just leaves a lasting impression of our little spaceship and crew who can deliver a whopping good story!






From here to the eyes and the ears of the 'Verse!

Mutlipule voting???????????

You can only Vote once on the BBC site when using the same IP, so in order to vote again you would need to use many different IP addresses.

I voted once, and I was simply saying maybe others should vote aswell!!

Agreed. Some of the other boards I go to use Browncoat as a bad word, due to our overzealousness from time to time.

I voted, but just the once.
