I think that mass voting shows how comitted fans are, i wouldn't do it for anything other than a show that truely deserved recognition and i thought others should see, so i think its still proof of just how good the 'verse is.

Too right But I do think asinle vote sistem, so every one can only vote once Gives a better Idea of the Fan base but multi voting gives a distorted view
How come things never go smooth

I've just been reading the feedback on SFX and what I see is this. Yes, there are people posting to say that the Browncoats have squewed the results, but there are more people saying that, despite that, people should go out and rent or buy Firefly and Serenity because they are good sci-fi and worth seeing. If that's not good publicity.....

I may have a bad memory, but I coulda sworn you could only vote once on the original SFX poll. Was it the same one that was added to Flyvote? It would be extremely ironic if it turns out that we didn't "stuff the ballot box" on that one. On the other hand, you can vote as much as you want on the BBC poll, and look who's winning now. Does anyone remember voting more than once on the SFX poll? Just curious.

There's a thread on here re: a morning show being aware of this vote and Serenity's win.
Yep, that's my thread.

I'd been trying to "convert" those guys for ages!

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

Hell, I thought people that got this obsessive about something had a screw or two loose. And then came firefly and the injustice of no more firefly. And now I'm one of those people.

The thing is, with firefly, with Serenity, I think we have damn good reason to be. If it gets more people to see it, it's all for the good.
It'll be hard to stick to the one vote thing though: To be moral or to be publicising firefly?
