Quote:That's like saying there's no point voting for any show that isn't Firefly. 39 other Top 40 shows, whose fandoms know they'll never catch us, still vie for the best position they can get, enjoying the thrill of passing other shows, when they can, as well as holding off rising rivals.

THough I'd like to see a lot of fine programs in the nominations, Hercules can't get on with 56,000 noms pretty much spells no hope for any of the low voted noms.
Anyway, a very long and weird Monday getting better with nearly 550,000 firefly votes, a few of mine in there tonight.
Paraphrase Joss, "Sometime you have to decide when holding on becomes necrophilia."
In the Nominations, it's a lot the same way. I've been enjoying the progress some of the Noms shows have been making as they move upward, even though, mathematically, they will never get into the Top 40. They can still shoot for the Top 100, Top 50, even Top 20 of the Noms, with a decent chance of getting there.
So, I'll keep nom'ing, and, encouraging those who do likewise, just like I'll keep holding on for more of the 'Verse VUMP!
(And, another nom for Moonlight!)

Mornin' everyone.
Got up early and started VOMing.
The reminder just came up so I Nom'd Moonlight this time. Will do John Doe again next time.
As Ray knows, I finally got that mass email out to everyone signed up at my site.
No way to know hoaw many will join, but at least a few have as of last night. Watch Surface start to climb that list now.
Look out Golden Girls, you ancient old biddys, you. LOLOLOL
I really appreciate the help with the Noms for Surface.
I agree that 50,000 votes looks like an impossible goal, but the thing is with dedication, and by picking up more help, all the while, the numbers start to add up.
When we did another voting poll last year, Surface was way down the list, but ended up holding 3rd place against Xena and Lost, which was at it's peak of popularity, at the time.
It can be done. A few shows at a time, and before you know it, the Noms are in the multiple thousands. Consistancy and dedication are the keys.
It also helps to have a great guy like Ray, leading the charge.
Three cheers for Ray. 21 gun salute later, if Jayne will loan me Vera. LOLOLOL - Jstn
