Won't rest until we've got a ten-point lead...

Yep, I'm still checking and voting as well; we've continued a positive trend, and I am glad to know I'm not the only one still voting here ;-)

Well, I finally got off my duff and asked them if there will be a follow-on story to the poll.

I doubt I'll get answered, but if a few of us asked (copy the URL before you hit contact as they do ask for it in the web story comment form)...

I think I might have asked once already; but perhaps if a few folks did around the same time...

Well, they don't seem to have any intention to ever used this story unless something else comes up.

And yet... I'm still wanting the ten-point spread...

What? No one else wants the ten-point spread??? I leave for 3 days and the thread disappears off the board?? Paint me all kinds of indignant.

I think we've proved as much of our point as we're gonna on this one. We got the Beeb to write about us in the first place and we got to the top of their poll too. A ten point spread doesn't really get us anything special. I'll still vote when it comes up but I don't feel the need to shepherd the thread. Unlike on tvvote where there is still something to accomplish.

Thanks for the reply. Sorry, I was just being silly. I didn't think anybody read this thread anymore. Although, truthfully, I guess I would still like a ten point spread because then I feel I can go away and leave it alone and safe.

I'm sorry, but I can not in good conscience pick Serenity over Blade Runner.

The two pictures they have there are awfully similar, aren't they. Are they trying to say that Wash is like Chewbacca?

:p
