They may take a break for a while, let us close up the gap a bit; but I'm sure the ol' competitive urge will hit 'em when we threaten to pass. That's when we find out who's got THE fanbase - Long haul, keeping the numbers up. Y'know, fanatical fans.


This part isn't really directly in reply, but...

Sure, they can beat us in a sprint (very dangerous over short distances; dwarves are natural sprinters (ehem. Sorry, wrong fandom )), but look at the overall average votes that I post daily. Day in, day out since last October we've averaged 1,002 votes per day. Xena 842. So despite getting our collective teeth kicked in a few times here & there, we're still winning overall (in the last 7 months). If you reach back far enough, obviously Xena has a higher overall average (or they wouldn't be in 1st place), but since we first got organized... It's Firefly all the way.

Yes Firefly has a great fandom, but I had to post and correct a couple of things. First off you are not doing it with just Firefly fans, you have got alliances with fans from other shows that all only voting for your show so you vote for theirs. From what I have read you still are looking for more alliances. We Xenites did it alone. So it's not Firefly all the way. Don't forget to give kudos to the Sci Fi block for helping Firefly fans make it into the HoF second. Even some Xenites helped you out because we loved Firefly too!

Unless you were monitoring the vote, there is no way you could know who voted for Firefly and who didn't. You can only infer from the posts here and elsewhere that there was the intention to form an alliance. You can't prove that it actually came to fruition. All the shows, including Xena, probably received quite a few votes from other fandoms that had people who simply enjoyed that show, in addition to their favorite. So this notion that Xena did it alone and we didn't is hogwash. Besides, the alliance thing was a fairly recent developement. Only one thing kept us from getting to the HOF first: Apathy. Go back under your Xena rock and stop pretending to be a Firefly fan.

The above is my opinion, and my opinion only. So don't go raising a fuss about "what those Firefly fans are saying". Its just me.

If you mean me, my apologies. I don't mean to act like a troll. I'm just stating my opinion. I'll happily delete if the regulars here ask me to.

Wanna do something a little bit strange for me?

Go to:

Find the column for "Piano", and under that find "bob". Click a vote for "bob". That isn't me, but it is a family member and Firefly fan.

Many Thanks!

I don't know where I was only yesterday. I'm lurking now. Sometimes not effectively.

Thanks for the vote.
