Firefly has gotten more votes EVERY DAY than any other program for just over a year now. Way to go Browncoats!
Jerichos Rangers appear to want to put an end to that (Take a look at the Daily Votes chart below). I don't much like the idea, so I'm asking for you lurkers to toss in an extra vote or two each day. You choir members keep doin' what you do, a few extras on the weekends though would be nice.
Somone's trying to kill us. I say we kill 'em right back.

Another "Midnight Ride," better numbers...

Manual mornin' stats VOMP!

[Surfnom!]

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote

http://www.richlabonte.net/tvvote

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/index.html

ALL three links work for voting, so if you have trouble, you can try an alternate address instead.

You can vote for more as many Top 40 shows as you like, once every hour. You can only nominate one show per hour, at:

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/nominations.html

Download the FlyVote voting timer, a NEW version of the program. It'll remind you when it's time to vote, each hour: http://usbmicro.com/misc

Votes are counted per network IP, so, don't go to the library or your office and vote hourly on each computer on the subnet, or all votes will be thrown out; multiple votes on rotating IPs will likewise be rejected.

Top two shows as of this morning:

(Statistics in parentheses are previous day's stats, for comparison purposes)

Total votes Firefly: 636,069 (634,865)

Yesterday, Browncoats voted 1,204 (1,120) times, 84 more than the previous day. Way to hold the valley, Browncoats! Let's keep it up!

Total votes Xena: 505,662 (505,185)

Yesterday, Xenites voted 477 (547) times, 70 fewer than the previous day.

(Xenites voted 727 (573) times fewer than Browncoats, yesterday.)

Firefly is 130,407 (129,680) votes ahead of Xena, more than the vote total of #22 show Star Trek: Voyager 125,452. That puts us at 19,593 (20,320) votes away from a 150,000 vote lead, about 26.95 (35.46) days.

We got our next banner, for 635,000 votes, today! Shiny!

Our next, big goal, 650,000 votes, is 13,931 (15,135) votes, and, 11.57 (13.51) days away!

6,880,413 (6,867,286) Top 40 votes have been counted as of 05/01/08. Yesterday, 13,127 (12,572) votes were cast. Our share fell to 9.2446347% (9.2447732%) of all votes ever cast. Our share of the voting pie remains at 9%.

In other TV Vote news (shows whose voters also support Firefly and the Whedonverse, so, let's return the favor, shiny?):

#5 show Battlestar Galactica got 490 (455) votes, and, is currently receiving enough votes to overtake #4 show, Gunsmoke, which got 333 (312) votes, yesterday, in 160.6 (177.42) days.

#7 show Buffy got an astounding 690 (637) votes, yesterday. Currently, Buffy is receiving enough votes to pass #6 show Farscape, which received 365 (361) votes, yesterday, in 23.5 (28.85) days. Buffy is also in pursuit of the 6th Hall of Fame slot, and, is 20,766 (21,456) votes, and 30.1 (33.68) days, away, while Farscape is 35.97 (37.38) days from getting there.

Buffy is blazing ahead, in the Hall of Fame race! Let's up the vote and keep her on top!

#11 show Angel got an amazing 620 (548) votes, yesterday. Angel is currently receiving enough votes to pass #10 show Combat!, which received 357 (342) votes, yesterday, in 17.21 (23.52) days.

#15 show Babylon 5 got 411 (371) votes, yesterday, and, is on track to pass #14 show Stargate SG-1, which got 278 (263) votes, in 34.83 (44.13) days.

#30 show Dark Shadows got 431 (434) votes, yesterday, and is receiving enough votes to pass #29 show Charmed, which got 213 (182) votes, in 1.5 (2.17) days.

#41 show (#1 in the Nominations Poll) Blood Ties got 516 (548) votes, yesterday, and is on track to pass #40 show Cleopatra 2525, which got 158 (178) votes, in 28.37 (28.41) days.

#46 show (#6 in the Nominations Poll) Moonlight got 406 (419) votes, yesterday, and will pass #45 show Rome, which got 174 (168) votes, yesterday, in 2.94 (3.64) days.

Thanks, again, for your time, and, for your support of these great shows!

AND...

Maverick 12410
Surface 12164

Surface got 175 Nominations votes, yesterday. That was better than 5 of the Top 40 shows got! That beat 12.5% of the Top 40 shows!

It's another 246 votes to pass Maverick, which got 43 votes, which means it'll still take us at least another 2 days to pass, at these voting levels.

Morning everyone VOMP (Surface)

Ongoing

Nom support Doe/Dwarf/Surface

Vote support Bonanza/Angel/Buffy/ Dark Shadows/Firefly (of course)


The Daily Surf Report


Yesterday we got 175 Noms. That's down 15 from the day before. Putting our average at 183

Maverick came in with 43 Noms, down 4 from the day before. Putting their average at 50.1

I admit I'm a little disappointed that we dropped 15 Noms yesterday, as I was hoping we'd be able to raise the totals, and do in two days, what everyone had predicted for 3 (2.67 as of yesterday)

Nonetheless, 175 is still a great number and we are still on schedule to pass on Sat., so be sure to come by the site and post Sunday. They'll be cake and confetti.

Great job yesterday. Keep up the energy Nimsters. We're almost there. Vote like crazy for the next two days

Ray from FFF.net tells me that, we did better than 3 shows (12.5%) on the Top 40 list.
(Make sure you are voting for Firefly every time you Nom. They are helping us)

We are 246 votes away from the #20 spot on the Nom list. It will take us 1.71 days to pass at our current rate.

We only have 20 more shows to the top of the list. 1 more to the Top 20.

To see the Top 20 Nominations Chart, click the "Click here for daily totals" link below the Top 40 box. Scroll to the bottom.

Let's keep our numbers above the 200 Nom level or better. Ask your friends to help. Have them sign up at savesurface so they'll receive these reminders too.
--------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------
Targets

The number in parentheses, next to each show, is the previous day's nom total (if available)
Between each show, is the number of noms to the next show.

Emergency 12717 (19)

307

Maverick 12410 (43)

246

Surface 12164 (175)

Many thanks to the delurked votes, folks! Please don't hesitate to join us noisy vumpers!

Thanks for the heads-up, Jstn; I'll have to do that (wish Luna a happy one) later, after I crash out for a while. Still recovering from Tuesday's dental adventure.

Saw Forbidden Kingdom; if you like that sort of thing, you'll love this one!

Bump (first, and then) vOTE


I find that kinda awkward, mentally, and usually only BOMP (bump, with a promissory vote+nom) if I'm in the last part of a vote cycle when I post stats.

Otherwise, I'm kinda on the hook to get that vote in, and, if something delays it, it throws off my next VOMP (vote+bump+nom), and so on...

So, I like to VOMP whenever I can.

" I'd like to thank the guy who wrote the song
that made my baby fall in love with me...
Who put the bomp in the bomp-a-bomp-a-bomp
Who put the ram in the ram-a-lam-a-ding-dong
Who put the bop in the bop-she-bop-she-bop
Who put the dip in the dip-de-dip-de-dip
Who was that man, I'd like to shake his hand
He made my baby fall in love with me (yeah!)
When my baby heard bomp-bomp-a-bomp-a-bomp-bo-bomp-bomp
Every word went right into her heart
And when she heard them singing ram-a-lama-lama-lama-lama-ding-dong
She said we'd never have to part"

(Xenites voted 678 (727) times fewer than Browncoats, yesterday.)

Firefly is 131,085 (130,407) votes ahead of Xena, more than the vote total of #22 show Star Trek: Voyager 125,664. That puts us at 18,915 (19,593) votes away from a 150,000 vote lead, about 27.9 (26.95) days.

We'll get our next banner, for 640,000 votes, in another 2,810 (3,931) votes, and 2.51 (3.26) days!

Our next, big goal, 650,000 votes, is 12,810 (13,931) votes, and, 11.43 (11.57) days away!

6,892,499 (6,880,413) Top 40 votes have been counted as of 05/02/08. Yesterday, 12,086 (13,127) votes were cast. Our share ROSE to 9.2446877% (9.2446347%) of all votes ever cast. That's the first increase we've seen in our piece of the voting pie in a while, Browncoats; great job! Our share of the voting pie remains at 9%.

Overall, yesterday's voting looks like another edition of what we saw last week; many shows took big hits, though some weathered whatever was behind it (possibly nice weather?) fairly well. Today is Friday, so the weekend doldrums officially start today. Let's see if we can take advantage of the opportunity it presents to make up some lost ground for our shows!

In other TV Vote news (shows whose voters also support Firefly and the Whedonverse, so, let's return the favor, shiny?):

#5 show Battlestar Galactica got 442 (490) votes, and, is currently receiving enough votes to overtake #4 show, Gunsmoke, which got 313 (333) votes, yesterday, in 194.46 (160.6) days. The Colonials have been struggling since they entered the Hall of Fame, and could use some help!

#7 show Buffy got 626 (690) votes, yesterday. Currently, Buffy is receiving enough votes to pass #6 show Farscape, which received 341 (365) votes, yesterday, in 25.8 (23.5) days. Buffy is also in pursuit of the 6th Hall of Fame slot, and, is 20,140 (20,766) votes, and 32.17 (30.1) days, away, while Farscape is 37.5 (35.97) days from getting there.

Buffy holding on to her lead in the Hall of Fame race! Let's up the vote and keep her on top!

#11 show Angel got 506 (620) votes, yesterday. Angel is currently receiving enough votes to pass #10 show Combat!, which received 375 (357) votes, yesterday, in 33.56 (17.21) days. That was a significant drop for Angel, matched by a surge for Combat!, which led to a near doubling of the time to pass. Let's get Angel moving, again!

#15 show Babylon 5 got 357 (411) votes, yesterday, and, is on track to pass #14 show Stargate SG-1, which got 249 (278) votes, in 41.9 (34.83) days. Looks like the Babylonians could use some shiny Browncoat help, too!

#30 show Dark Shadows got 425 (431) votes, yesterday, and is receiving enough votes to pass #29 show Charmed, which got 206 (213) votes, in .5 (1.5) days. Dark Shadows will be the new #29 show, tomorrow!

#41 show (#1 in the Nominations Poll) Blood Ties got 530 (516) votes, yesterday, and is o

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Freakin' HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO VOMP (Surface)

Ongoing support for the usual suspects.
Doe/Dwarf/Surface
Bonanza (are you watching your ass Xenites)/Angel/Buffy/Dark Shadows/ and of course our beloved Firefly



OK Guys I am so excited. Today's the day we make the Top 20 Nom list, thanks to a record day yesterday. SAB needs to redo his Surface stats.

Gimungous hugs of appreciation for your help, but read on...


The Daily Surf Report


Yesterday we got a incredible 231 Noms. That's up an astounding 56 from the day before. Putting our average at 188.3 And a new record. Nimsters rock.

Keep reading, because this has changed everything...

Maverick came in with 48 Noms, up 5 from the day before. Putting their average at 49.9

You guys did so well yesterday, that you not only increased our Nom totals, but also diminished Maverick's totals by one days worth of Noms. In other words, WE WILL PASS THEM TODAY INSTEAD OF TOMORROW. See what a good day can do.

BUT NOT ONLY THAT...

We had been scheduled to pass the next show on Monday, a little tidbit, I was going to surprise you with this morning, however, yesterday's voting was so good that we will pass them on Sunday instead. That means we will be at #20 for only a day before we actually pass Emergency for the #19 spot (the numbers will show that Mon. morning)

Nimsters, so totally rock.

YET MORE

Ray from FFF.net tells me that, we did better than 18 shows (45%) on the Top 40 list. Unbelievable.
(Make sure you are voting for Firefly every time you Nom. They are helping us)

We are 63 votes away from the #20 spot on the Nom list. It will take us .59 days to pass at our current average rate.
We are 342 votes away from the #19 spot on the Nom list. It will take us 1.93 days to pass at our current average rate

We only have 20 more shows to the top of the list. 1 more to the Top 20.

To see the Top 20 Nominations Chart, click the "Click here for daily totals" link below the Top 40 box. Scroll to the bottom.

Let's keep our numbers above the 200 Nom level or better. Ask your friends to help. Have them sign up at savesurface so they'll receive these reminders too.
--------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------
Targets

The number in parentheses, next to each show, is the previous day's nom total (if available)
Between each show, is the number of noms to the next show.

Emergency 12737 (20)

279

Maverick 12458 (48 )

63

Surface 12395 (231)

http://www.richlabonte.net/tvvote

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/index.html

ALL three links work for voting, so if you have trouble, you can try an alternate address instead.

You can vote for more as many Top 40 shows as you like, once every hour. You can only nominate one show per hour, at:

http://richlabonte.net/tvvote/nominations.html

Download the FlyVote voting timer, a NEW version of the program. It'll remind you when it's time to vote, each hour: http://usbmicro.com/misc

Votes are counted per network IP, so, don't go to the library or your office and vote hourly on each computer on the subnet, or all votes will be thrown out; multiple votes on rotating IPs will likewise be rejected.

Top two shows as of this morning:

(Statistics in parentheses are previous day's stats, for comparison purposes)

Total votes Firefly: 638,251 (637,190)

Yesterday, Browncoats voted 1,061 (1,121) times, 60 fewer than the previous day. Still over 1,000, not bad for a Friday!

Total votes Xena: 506,495 (506,105)

Yesterday, Xenites voted 390 (443) times, 53 fewer than the previous day.

(Xenites voted 671 (678) times fewer than Browncoats, yesterday.)

Firefly is 131,756 (131,085) votes ahead of Xena, more than the vote total of #22 show Star Trek: Voyager 125,861. That puts us at 18,244 (18,915) votes away from a 150,000 vote lead, about 27.19 (27.9) days.

We'll get our next banner, for 640,000 votes, in another 1,749 (2,810) votes, and 1.65 (2.51) days!

Our next, big goal, 650,000 votes, is 11,749 (12,810) votes, and, 11.07 (11.43) days away!

6,903,943 (6,892,499) Top 40 votes have been counted as of 05/03/08. Yesterday, 11,444 (12,086) votes were cast. Our share ROSE to 9.2447321% (9.2446877%) of all votes ever cast. Our share of the voting pie remains at 9%.

That's two days in a row in which our voting share has increased, rather than decreased. That appears be related to the corresponding drop in votes received by other shows, particularly the other big-hitters. We saw a similar drop-off last week; still not sure what's causing it, but, Firefly is holding onto great numbers. Unfortunately, the other members of our family of shows have been hit with the same voting blight, and need some support.

In other TV Vote news (shows whose voters also support Firefly and the Whedonverse, so, let's return the favor, shiny?):

#5 show Battlestar Galactica got 424 (442) votes, and, is currently receiving enough votes to overtake #4 show, Gunsmoke, which got 290 (313) votes, yesterday, in 186.2 (194.46) days. The Colonials have been struggling since they entered the Hall of Fame, and could use some help!

#7 show Buffy got 563 (626) votes, yesterday. Currently, Buffy is receiving enough votes to pass #6 show Farscape, which received 317 (341) votes, yesterday, in 28.89 (25.8) days. Buffy is also in pursuit of the 6th Hall of Fame slot, and, is 19,577 (20,140) votes, and 34.77 (32.17) days, away, while Farscape is 39.34 (37.5) days from getting there.

Buffy is holding on to her lead in the Hall of Fame race! Let's up the vote and keep her on top!

#11 show Angel got 467 (506) votes, yesterday. Angel is currently receiving enough votes to pass #10 show Combat!, which received 339 (375) votes, yesterday, in 33.34 (33.56) days.

#15 show Babylon 5 got 361 (357) votes, yesterday, and, is on track to pass #14 show Stargate SG-1, which got 227 (249) votes, in 32.77 (41.9) days. The Babylonians could still use some shiny Browncoat help, too!

With your help, Dark Shadows got 437 (425) votes, yesterday, receiving enough votes to pass #30 show Charmed, which got 175 (206) votes, to become the new #29 show! Congratulations to the Barnabas Browncoats! Dark Shadows is on track to pass #28 show CSI, which got 171 (186) votes, in 3.91 days!

#41 show (#1 in the Nominations Poll) Blood Ties got 514 (530) votes, yesterday, and is on track to pass #40 show Cleopatra 2525, which

Yeeeeeee Freakin' Haaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwww !!!! VOMP (Surface)


We did it folks. We are in the Top 20 Noms.

Thanks for your help getting there.

Let's not waste time. Here is...

The Daily Surf Report

Come by and celebrate here...

http://www.savesurface.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=5204


Yesterday we had another great day at 208 Noms. Putting our average at 190.3

It is terribly important that we don't let up though, as we can pass Emergency today if we get at least 181 Noms

You guys have done an amazing job, and I'm incredibly Nimpressed with you all, and that includes poor Jan, who has had a terrible time getting the vote page to work for her (Damn AOL) and yet jst keeps on trying anyway.

We have another decent gap ahead of us after Emergency, on the way to taking down The West Wing, however they average about a quarter as many votes as Maverick did, so it should be pretty quick. Then the next couple of shows will fall fast.

Great job everybody. Don't forget to keep up the momentum today, then we can relax a bit, if we need to, (but not too much LOL) after that for a few days.

Ray from FFF.net tells me that, we did better than 17 shows (42.5%) on the Top 40 list. Outstanding..
(Make sure you are voting for Firefly every time you Nom. They are helping us)

We are 157 votes away from the #19 spot on the Nom list. It will take us .94 days to pass at our current average rates

We only have 19 more shows to the top of the list. WE ARE IN THE TOP 20 in jst a hair over 2 months..

To see the Top 20 Nominations Chart, click the "Click here for daily totals" link below the Top 40 box. Scroll to the bottom.

Let's keep our numbers above the 200 Nom level or better. Ask your friends to help. Have them sign up at savesurface so they'll receive these reminders too.

Man, FT, why would you even write that?

Why not just paint a target on your show?

You may have fired 'em up real good. Better get Vera now to hold 'em off.



Hope everyone reads the Surf report today, and drops by later for a "party"

I was wondering if anyone would ever read that

Our vote numbers have fallen off quite a bit since we passed Xena (39 weeks ago), and we're still pulling away from EVERYONE. Not that I mind or anything, but for us it's not really a competition anymore. Fans have come & gone, some are still active on other threads, but since we don't /need/ the votes they got bored and aren't voting anymore. I understand.

The Rangers might actually make a run at us, shake things up a bit. Give me something to write other than "Keep up the votes".
I'd like to see what we could do vote-wise if we had someone breathing down our necks.

That my friend FT, is a mighty risky strategy. Good luck with that.

OK, the party is getting started at "our place"

Ray dropped by already, but that was before the coffee and donuts showed up, or the band for that matter.

Please come by and post something, if you've been helping Surface.

I have complete faith in the Browncoats Jstn. They'll turn out in force if needed.

I think I may have waved a red-ish flag, but not very bright. Didn't say I was a Browncoat, didn't claim Firefly was the best show ever aired (was, but didn't say so), etc., etc. Just pointed out a few interesting numeric facts.

Hung a target on Firefly: Probably.

Maybe I should have gone with the alternate post:

This is a JOKE folks, smile when you read it, and remember the days of clawing towards the top (if you were here back then), before we became all civilized.

The easily offended shouldn't read this:

Select to view spoiler:



"Firefly is #1, has been for 39 weeks, and we've been #1 in the votes for a year now. Our daily votes vary by more than most of you get on a GOOD day. The rest of you go ahead and quibble over slots 2-40 if you must, we don't look that far down anymore. Don't get too full of yourselves Jericho, plenty of other shows have had a good flash in the pan, but they don't have any stamina. Call us after you pass Xena & we might notice."



I'd consider /that/ to be waving a RED flag & not only hanging a target, but lighting it up, transmitting homing beacons, and running a soundtack of "Nyah, nyah, you can't get us!".
