Ultimate Fishing Town - Round Two

It locks me out when I type in the word and hit submit, and no I'm not voting more than once in 12 hours.
Backed all the way out shut the computer off and went back.
Same thing,any ideas?

yup...lots. Here is one comment :"Suprise Suprise, the site is failing again. I can't get it to take my "type word" to varify the vote. It keeps telling me there is an error (when there is not) and giving me a new word. Anyone else having this issue?"

And a teacher at the school: "Strange... I tried it about 4 different times, and it said that my computer had voted its maximum from the IP address (we voted about 10 times before it jammed on us). It said that this IP address needed to wait 12 hours before we could use it to vote again!"
 
Found that if you check sometiimes it doesnt say that you have to wait if you voted 3 hours ago;) Snuck atleast 4 votes in that way.

Took a couple mins on facebook an msn and have a 50ish email list thats voting every 12 hours... and they are happy to help and do nuthin
Gather some up an throw them in [8D]

Almost a 3g lead [8D]
 
Almost a 4g lead during the day its now down to 800..... every 12 hours! They didnt catch up tonight and it almost their bed time but blast your votes in again!!

So those Nestor folks are the fastest types on earth. I was putting in my email address’s to vote for my favorite fishing town just now at around 10 PM. I was looking at the counts and voted a few times. I then refreshed my screen and found the Nestor folks numbers jump around 3000 votes. Wow how the heck could they do that? I thought we were doing great and I was watching our numbers rise by the tens then a hundred. You guys out there better pick up the pace as the Nestor folks have a secret weapon and are going to take this thing hands down right at the deadline. Could be a little fish but how would you prove that 3k votes in less than 5 minutes was not normal.

they are 1500 votes ahead now.

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers.
 
We managed to gain a little of the lost ground back...
The jumps in their vote numbers are simply due to the number of folks they have that support them. When half of Toronto comes online and votes all at once, they sure do bounce the opposition's numbers up there! [V]

VERY</u> tight race! Methinks it will likely be a "photo finish"! Hopefully with BC a neck out in front!! ;)

Keep pounding the votes in Folks, and if you know anyone who currently isn't voting, it might be the time for a gentle reminder...

Closing in on the end now. Four days remaining! Lets do what we can to bring this home!! :D

No problem with access and no problem voting for me.
Judging from the rate the numbers are going up no problem for most folks. Are you sure it's not something on your end?
Try clearing your browser. Maybe turn off your computer and back on.
 
Just so we have an idea as to what's happening voting wise, here are the stats at 4.30 pm. Port 153,300. Nestor 150,155. eman
 
If you are having problems Refresh your browser. That's the F5 key on Windows or pressing Command and the letter R keys together on a Mac. They should be ramping up again soon. Seems they like to plug em in 8pm eastern time - 4am eastern time (9am our time) We have volunteers to help out getting peoples votes in if you cant. Contact Carolyn Jasken and she will ensure your vote counts every 12 hrs. The volunteers have a real lull after 2am and 2pm and would like to keep going with more votes..
 
Yep refresh browser, shut computer down completly yada yada yada.
As soon as I vote comes up incorrect word try again.
E mail me Carolyns contact info, I would like to vote.
Dan
 
Can I get that contact info also?
I have some email addys that I can't use and need someone to vote them.

GLG
 
call her at 724-6077 Dont post email addys on here incase peeps are looking to steal and use. Gotta find 100 legit email addys each. Can it be done? Ok maybe 20, but the more the merrier. Gotta figure out what nestors stratedgy is for the final days. Call your friends and get em to give you their emails. Just tell them to ignore the confirmations.
 
Just pick any common name like Jason, Jack, Bill, Al etc @yahoo.com and you have a legit email address. What's so difficult about this?

Don't know how/why but they seem to be able to put 3000 votes in around 10 pm our time (1am their time). happened the last 2 nights that I have been watching. They must have many people inputing at that time.

The cycle that has developed was repeated once again over night.
Over the course of the day we manage to collect about a 3 to 3.5 thousand vote lead on them.
Then they respond as their proxy list voters arise, and they cut the lead down to nothing, then pass us by in the early morning hours.:(
This has now happened several days in a row, and very much appears to be the pattern now.

It is more than a little dangerous for us out West to assume this pattern will hold!
I have a strong suspicion they are lulling us into believing that is all they are capable of, and that this is very much amongst their intentional tactics to take us down. If they have a "reserve bank" of Emails and/or voters in the wings, they could easily out-run us when they call that into play on the Final Day (or two). Perhaps that's the conspiracy seeker in me, but I can't help but think that given the way they have played this game so far, that they don't have a plan for defeating us at the last moment. Actually have to hand it to their organizers, thus far they have worked the system hard and with focus, managing to stay right on us at every juncture...

So now if we are to carry this, there are a couple of strategies we should consider:

- Of course maintain our voting pressure. Try to convince as many others to join us as is possible, we could REALLY use some additional support here. Should for whatever reason you or your Buddies not be able to get your own votes in personally, shoot me a PM or E. I will provide the contact information for one of our organizers (Carolyn) that will ensure your vote gets counted. This would have to be done ASAP as I am departing for the Coast in a matter of hours...

- Ensure your votes are in before 2:00pm today, and 2:00am tonight, and the same for the next couple of days. We will need all that we can pour into it before the 2:00pm Deadline on Thursday September 30th. On that Final Day, make damn sure your vote is in on time! [}:)]

Watch closely now Folks! We are down to the wire, and this is an extremely</u> tight run! Our competition has proven themselves as very worthy adversaries! They are poised to pull out all the stops, and take the Title off to Ontario. Our mission of course is to try and prevent that, and ensure that the Title instead goes to the Best</u> Fishing Province in Canada - British Columbia!! This will take all we can muster at this point.

The weather has once again broken offshore, and of course I must answer the call. I am off again this afternoon, and will be so until after the Contest closes. I have misgivings wandering away at this point, but must ensure my family is housed and fed. It is after all, what I do - Fishing!</u> ;)

The Very BEST of LUCK on this one Folks! Although concerned at this point, I very much do feel comfortable leaving this matter in your very capable hands! I am hoping, and looking forward to the distinct possibility of a Major Victory Celebration upon my return. Should that Happy Event come to be, there will be significant lead time, and Invites to the Show for all! :D
