Up and at 'em, VOMP!

The one record which has eluded us is most votes in a single day. Xena holds that record, dating back to March 30, 2007: 2,803. Firefly topped out on March 7, 2007: 2,359. We could still beat Xena's total, but it would take doubling our current best daily vote totals to do it.

I propose we give this one, last shot. Our best voting already takes place mid-week; I think we should shoot for a concerted best voting day ever a week from today, next Wednesday, August 6, for the approximately 24 hours between 6am ET Wednesday and 7am ET Thursday.

Even if we don't get a best day, or break Xena's record, it would be one helluva Crazy Ivan on the way toward 750,000 votes.

So, whattaya all say?

Like you had to ask?
Vump yeah I'm in! Let's get to misbehavin'.

Those of you in the viral marketing department (yes, I mean all of you), please spread the word.

Anybody left with an account over at Whedonesque? We haven't bugged them in a year or more. Let 'em know.

I'll post to the 76th soon's I'm done here. I tried to contact FlyVote, but dunno if I had the correct address. Anyone know how to reach DerangedMilk?
There's a few other places I'll try.

We gotta start the signal before it can be unstoppable!

I'm trying to work up a "Press Release" to send out to every Browncoat website I can find. Sunday, for post on Monday sounds like a solid vump.

Mornin' stats BOMP!

The missus and I put in 23 total votes on our IP, yesterday, including Bonanza, BSG, Buffy, Jericho, Angel, Babylon 5, Ponderosa, Dark Shadows, Blood Ties, all our friends with whom we share our success. We're on a sprint for the finish, Browncoats! Let's make sure the whole team gets across the finish line!

Many thanks to those Big Damn Heroes who are adding votes for Ponderosa and Bonanza! Bonanza, in particular, was fallin' short of the totals they were gonna need to reach their goal of 500k; now, they stand to make their goal, with our help (which our new westerns friends are graciously returning). It's the neighborly thing to do, and all it costs is an additional click or two when you vote. It'll give us a little something extra to share in celebrating when the Poll ends. Xie-xie!

About 2 weeks remain to vote, and Firefly is now 2 days AHEAD of schedule!

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

An estimated 14.49 (15.06) days remain to vote, based on current rates of voting.


Looks like day before yesterday's voting performance was no fluke, as the numbers were similar, yesterday. We're on the fast track to the finish!


Our ultimate goal, 750,000, is 17,488 (18,885) votes, and 12.52 (12.98) days away! We need to maintain a daily average of 1,166 (1,181) votes for the balance of the Poll to stay on track. At this point, every vote we fail to cast is lost forever; we won't always have "tomorrow" to make it up!

Let's keep up the hard burn, show everyone our Browncoat Fan Power, and clinch our final milestones!


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.

Time to stop looking behind us, and focus on what lies ahead!

Total votes Firefly: 732,512 (731,115)

Yesterday, Browncoats voted 1,397 (1,455) times, 58 fewer than the previous day. Still mighty shiny numbers, Browncoats! We're closing in on the end of the Poll, and with the help of all our friends (now including the Bonanzais and Jericho Rangers), we need to keep the daily votes up!

We'll get our next banner, for 735,000 votes, in another 2,488 (3,885) votes, and 1.78 (2.67) days!

8,082,752 (8,063,194) Top 40 votes have been counted as of 07/30/08. Yesterday, 19,558 (20,066) votes were cast.

In other TV Vote news (shows whose voters also support Firefly and the Whedonverse, so, let's return the favor, shiny? We accomplish more together than we would separately!)...

#5 show Battlestar Galactica got 529 (597) votes, not receiving enough votes to pass #4 show Gunsmoke by the end of the Poll.

The Colonials need urgent help! Please lend 'em a hand!

#6 show Buffy the Vampire Slayer got 749 (805) votes, yesterday, not receiving enough votes to pass #5 show BSG by the end of the Poll. Buffy's numbers are still sufficient to hold off #7 show Farscape.

#9 show Angel got 709 (761) votes, yesterday, not receiving enough votes to pass #8 show Jericho by the end of the Poll. Angel's numbers are still sufficient to hold off #10 show Combat! until the end of the Poll. Angel is 19.68 (19.27) days from the Hall of Fame, about 5 (4) days behind. In order to enter the HoF before the Poll ends, Angel needs a daily average of at least 931 (917) votes.

#13 show Babylon 5 got 460 (490) votes, yesterday, not receiving enough votes
