Kids' TV Champ - Radio Times vote

Which FB page is that? A non official one?
Can't seem to see such comments on the official sooty page
-
Ah I think I found it. It's a non official page.
Interestingly they seem to be saying that if you vote too often you get a message telling you to take a break. Can anyone confirm? If so, it would appear to be evidence that multiple voting is permitted and I would be happy to encourage it
-
Yes, it lets you vote a few dozen times and then blocks you for a "cooling off period" of an hour or two. It's clearly designed to allow multiple votes up to a certain limit, so I don't see why we shouldn't. If they wanted to prevent re-voting they could easily have implemented that.
-
Does it actually tell you about the cooling off period?
-
Excellent.
-
Can we figure out the cool down period?
-
I remain confused at how they are able to effect a big swing in the votes so quickly. We surge ahead and they knock it back down within a minute or two.
-
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?
-
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.
-
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...
-
The problem is the cooling off period. Are people somehow circumventing it? How are people able to vote so much?
-
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.)
