Kids' TV Champ - Radio Times vote

[HobGoblin]

Yes, we creep ahead by half a % over an hour or so, a call then goes out on that sooty FB page and it swings back at an alarming rate. They must have several people who vote multiple times and police the poll religiously.

Who'd have thought sooty had such a militant fan base ?!

Are there really more of them than us?

[Mystara]

It's interesting because that page doesn't have many followers. At least in comparison.
I wonder if I have anything I can release as a perk if we beat sooty.

[HobGoblin]

The comments on the sooty FB page are full of people saying they've just voted LOADS (in capitals).

If, for example, everyone who attended the KM convention votes LOADS this evening I'm sure we could turn this around. That will require a time commitment obviously. I have a free evening...

[Mystara]

The problem is the cooling off period. Are people somehow circumventing it? How are people able to vote so much?

[HobGoblin]

It does seem possible to circumvent the cooling off period but I just think not enough KM fans have voted multiple times...yet!

Just seen the latest result. When I woke up at 5am this morning we were winning by 0.02%. Now were losing!!! Not long to go either so keep voting! I see Tom and Jerry and Sm:tv have chopped and changed a few times.

[pjmlfc05]

Just retaken the lead!! Keep voting!

[Mystara]

I seem to be able to vote endlessly on Firefox.

Pat Sharp single handedly swung the votes when it was Knightmare vs Fun House on Challenge.

Slightly unfair, but there you go.

I've tweeted him to let him know that votes for Fun House's 'sister show' are welcome, in the hope that he'll retweet.

Under different circumstances, Sooty would be a worthy winner. But not this time. Lord Dunshelm deserves victory. Don't vote puppet: vote Saxon! (I'm sure I've heard that phrase somewhere before.)

[Mystara]

Let's see if he's prepared to use his influence for good.

I have just announced a bribery via Facebook. If we get through to the next round (by beating Sooty) I'll upload Lord Fear's Dungeoneer Appeal (as seen at the convention) to YouTube.

I've also made some enquiries about other unseen footage and our ability to make it available.

I'm simultaneously really stressed out and really amused by this whole thing.

[HobGoblin]

Ok, this is still like wading through treacle but we are beginning to make progress.

Bear in mind sooty took 7% off KM overnight yesterday so let's try to build up a really good lead!

[Mystara]

Ahem, I finally received my dialog box of naughtiness.
It won't even show me the results page now

I have two PCs, one 'piggy-backing' on a neighbour's internet connection. I do a series of votes on one PC, then switch over to the other one. So far, it hasn't been able to detect that I'm voting in-bulk.

[Mystara]

I reckon I made about 150 votes before it complained
