Well, if there was any doubt about Jericho on TvTally...

8:30 Firefly 108, Jericho 98
8:45 Firefly 108, Jericho 99
9:00 Firefly 111, Jericho 110
9:04 Firefly 113, Jericho 136

(And I just noticed that yesterday's tripling of Jericho's score was immediately followed by a post on their board by "flowerlady11" saying, "I am voting now and tally tv looks better" and she posted again two minutes after this latest jump. Anybody want to take bets on the source of their inflated scores?)

Bote at the Tally site. I'd hate to accuse a fellow fan-base of using shady tactics to win a friendly contest but the numbers show otherwise. Too bad they can't win on integrity alone.

Coffee run. Can I get a latte for anyone??

Yeah, there is some kind of cheat(s) at work here. At one time, one of the PCs I used at the office allowed me to vote for one show six times every six hours. Now that machine got reconfigured and its HD scrubbed, and when I used it again, the cheat capability was gone. I asked my techies if anything specail had been done to the browese or comms on that box, and all on of them could remember was some tweaking on the IE browser installed. But no one could remember what was done (and I'm not the kind of boss who will send one of my people diving into the deep backups to reconstruct the settings for that particular browser.)

I think it has something to do with removing cookies, but I never had the time to mess with it.

Well, even assuming that there are /some/ folks on at least one other show voting team padding the vote (and I've mentioned this about TV Tally in the past), what do y'all want to do? Quit entirely, keep playing legitimately and win a legitimate victory, or turn their own methods against 'em and try to beat 'em at their own game?

I had quit TV Tally entirely for quite some while after I learned that it was easily cheated on; it wasn't worth the extra effort while TV Vote was going on, but it's something to do, now.

We could simply keep voting and measure our own, legitimate efforts and ignore the results we see from the other side; I have been watching this, and I think that those who may be cheating have at least learned subtlety, and are only padding the score enough to stay just ahead of us, now.

Or (and I wouldn't seriously advocate this course) we could cheat. I happen to know how they do it, though I don't use the method, myself. Then TV Tally truly WOULD be a waste of our time.

I suggest we keep voting, without cheating, and simply ignore Jericho's score. You can legitimately vote once per six hours for each of three shows; anything beyond that is cheating, including using a cheat to "make up" a vote you weren't able to make on time.

Fair play or no play, VUMP!

FlatTop, might wanna add this one to the mix:

http://www.tvratingz.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tcvid=1098

You can only rate a show ONCE, including a comment up to 1,000 characters long.
Firefly
Number of Ratings: 22
Average Rating: 4.8

Ratings are based on a maximum score of 5.0

(One numb-nutz gave it a "1")

Not sure which trick you mean, FG... You can legitimately vote once for each of three different shows, once every 6 hours, though it's amazingly simple to squeeze in more votes, should one care to.

Me, I just figure we can just vote honorably, and disregard the "success" of such as don't scruple so much. By the way, you can also post reviews of shows (such as Firefly) at TV Tally, as well as post comments on their home page, if you register.

BUMP!

Still without power at the house :( Power co. is saying Saturday now. I'll believe it when it comes on.
Waiting for parts to come in so's I can get the saw running again (chain oiler pump failed). Oh well, it needed a good cleaning & sharpening anyway.
It's kinda neat to hear all the kids outside playing in the evening.
Mini-Me has decided that without electricity, but with running water, we're at approximately the technology level of the Roman Empire while at home (but with copper pipes instead of lead ones).

Vumped through the list.

Hope you get things powered up soon, FT - I do recall an ice storm in Colorado that left the city without power for days; as it was winter, things were quite interesting. I had a houseful of friends over as I did have a gas log fireplace that worked so we were warm at least.

We're now leading 256 to 245 at tvtally.

However, over at weekinwhedon, the Angelites have caught on to our stealthy advance and are voting. While we were behind 1017 votes two days ago, today we are behind 1081. We gonna need some more voters.

We are advancing nicely at BBC, and should be up to 40 percent in another week. Unless the Star Wars community finds out and comes back. Oh, wait, they tried that once before and lost....

Damn, the Scapers muscled Summer out of first place. Anyway, nice bunch of new links. Put those links at the top of the thread, so more people catch it on their way in.

Meanwhile, we sort of have a tie with Jericho at Tvtally, and at weekinshwhedon were are getting hammered by the now alerted Angelites. We need more voters over there. Everyone counts, since only a few dozen people are voting each day. Today we are 1072 votes behind, yesterday it was 1081 (and a week ago it was 1071, the Angelites only got after us in the last few days.)

Same deal at BBC, but there we are pulling ahead, and the Star War community is still, well, doing whatever they do that keeps them comfortably numb.
