Well, Tex, bottom line is, the studios in the TV and motion picture industries don't want to pay the Writers, like Joss, for example, either a fair (though miniscule) percentage of the DVD sales of their works, or, ANYTHING AT ALL for what is shown online by the networks and studios, or, that is sold for personal digital storage devices (ITunes).

The studios claim that they make no money (!) on those transactions, so, they don't want to promise the Writers a share of even nothing.

Here's a thread you can visit with a lot of information; later posts have more up-to-date information:

Welcome to the party, Kirk!

It's nice to meet one of the legion of Browncoats who ain't us who's been voting, all this time. Thanks for fighting the good fight!

Heheh... Hey, stats freaks, looky what I found:

http://tinyurl.com/36jttf

This is a stats breakdown from 02/19/06 to 08/21/06, from the TV Vote Group archives! Be sure to read the second post, as these numbers may not take into account a 4 day hiatus in July of that year.

A lot has changed, in all that time!

Blast from the past VUMP!

With that, and, 23 votes at our house, today, I bid you adieu.

'Nighters!

US Thanksgiving mornin' manual stats VUMP!

What am I thankful for? Among other things, all my shiny Browncoat brothers and sisters! I love you guys!

Top two scores as of this morning:

(Previous day's stat)

Total votes Firefly: 475,185 (474,114)

Total votes Xena: 423,049 (422,481)

Yesterday, Browncoats voted 1,071 (1,089) times.

Yesterday, Xenites voted 568 (599) times.

(Xenites voted 503 (490) times less than Browncoats, yesterday).

Firefly is 52,136 (51,633) votes ahead of Xena, more than the vote total of #40 show Hercules: The Legendary Journeys 49,761!

Browncoat votes fell by 18 yesterday, 1.65%; Xenite votes fell by 31, 5.18%.

We got a shiny 475,000 votes banner, today!

Our next, big goal is half a million, 24,815 (25,886) votes away, still about 23.17 (23.77) days out as we are currently voting.

4,982,239 (4,970,965) votes have been counted as of 11/22/07. 11,274 (11,715) votes were cast yesterday. In order to take ownership of 10% of all votes cast yesterday, we needed to vote 1,128 (1,172) times, of which we fell short by 57 votes. Our share fell to 9.5375799% (9.5376645%) of all votes ever cast.

Despite the Thanksgiving holiday in the US, this week, we did alright, yesterday. For those of us who celebrate it, have a safe and happy Thanksgiving, you and yours! Everybody else, have a shiny day!

going to the neighbor's for Thanksgiving dinner...(in the south, for some reason, ham, mac and cheese (?) and sometimes roast beef are also part of the 'traditional' meal...very strange). Also..with my apologies to southerners here; cornbread dressing?..please, it's dirt with celery. Every year we have gone to the same family's home for Turkey day..and she makes an enormous pan of cornbread dressing (see dirt with celery above). Since I make the basic Yankee dressing to take..it's always eaten up and the cornbread dressing is left with maybe a spoonful or two taken out. Is it wrong of me to be somewhat gleeful about that?

Nothing wrong with being gleeful, so long as you're quiet about it. Smirking at the hostess and/or commenting on how yours is more popular than hers (ahhhhh no ' to indicate possesion because "your" and "her" are both self indicative of singular third person! Sorry, it finally clicked) would be high on the rude scale.
She knows, but continues to make it because it's traditional.

Have fun today vump!

Mornin' manual stats VUMP!

Top two scores as of this morning:

(Previous day's stat)

Total votes Firefly: 476,019 (475,185)

Total votes Xena: 423,514 (423,049)

Yesterday, Browncoats voted 834 (1,071) times. A clear-cut case of L-tryptophan poisoning.

Yesterday, Xenites voted 465 (568) times.

(Xenites voted 369 (503) times less than Browncoats, yesterday).

Firefly is 52,505 (52,136) votes ahead of Xena, more than the vote total of #40 show Hercules: The Legendary Journeys 49,940!

Browncoat votes fell by 237 yesterday, 22.13%; Xenite votes fell by 103, 18.13%.

Our next, big goal is half a million, 23,981 (24,815) votes away, still about 28.75 (23.17) days out as we are currently voting.

4,990,886 (4,982,239) votes have been counted as of 11/23/07. 8,647 (11,274) votes were cast yesterday. In order to take ownership of 10% of all votes cast yesterday, we needed to vote 865 (1,128) times, of which we fell short by 31 votes. Our share still rose to 9.5377655% (9.5375799%) of all votes ever cast.

We can expect TV Vote to reach and pass 5 million votes, tomorrow, assuming 9,114 votes or more are cast today, a landmark for the Poll, itself!

Well, I wanted to get in on a "price leader" deal (something they advertise to "lead" you into the store) on a 42" flat screen for my missus for Christmas; I got to WalMart early, so, the crowds weren't at "full ugly" mode, yet.

But, as supplies were "limited," i.e., they ran out immediately of the only 5 of the model I went in for, I ended up with the 32", for substantially less money. It'll fit better in the living room, too, so, it all worked out.

Otherwise, I only go out among the crazy shoppers to watch.

Comsumerism-voyeurism VUMP!
