Tubbie Head Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 but it's really possible that MCR wins. Killjoys cast around 377,000 votes in the previous round, compared with Idiots which did only around 43,000. but Killjoys really had to vote 10x harder since they were up against Aliens (tokio hotel fans). We didn't have a thread for this before so...
stuart_and_the_ave Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Voting has finally started and we're losing!!
WestboundSign! Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 This can't be true! We have to win this one. Idiots always have to win! Edit: Now they said they have received to many votes from me so they blocked me for a "cooling off period"
Disapperingirl Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 I'm suprised by the amount of My Chemical Romance fans here Ah, I have no doubts about who to vote It's so satisfying to see that every vote of mine is a 0,01 % for the Idiots! We better win.... :shift:

Disapperingirl Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Was the same here! But they still don't let me vote again.. try to refresh the page! That's a SABOTAGE !!! EDIT: the same thing just happened to me, apparently I voted "too much". Bloody hell, It's never too much for Green Day!!
WestboundSign! Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 try to refresh the page! That's a SABOTAGE !!! No, it doesn't work. I've already tried it again and again. They really blocked me. But I really voted a lot so... : Hopefully this thing's open for me again soon! I don't want the Idiots to lose! EDIT: the same thing just happened to me, apparently I voted "too much". Bloody hell, It's never too much for Green Day!! Totally agree. This makes me angry! It seems a bit pointless to me. Why do they make a poll where you can vote as often as you want to if you actually can't? Then they should make a poll where you can vote just for one time right away.
greendaytone Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Rest assured, GDA will be on this. Just a bit of a shame if it's one of those polls where you can vote unlimited times, it's not the best way to do it.
raven052 Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 This can't be true! We have to win this one. Idiots always have to win! Edit: Now they said they have received to many votes from me so they blocked me for a "cooling off period" OK, guys. That 'cooling off period' was sounding mighty familiar, and just had a look at the voting page. And it's the same type of poll 'counter' as they used for March Madness. Which, as Andres explained back then, for this particular one (it's called 'polldaddy') your vote only counts the first time you vote. After that it doesn't count. If I remember correctly we were able to vote about once every couple of hours and have it go through, but if it says 'thank you, your vote has already been counted' then that vote did not count. Crazy voting on this type of counter does nothing but make your hand hurt and send you into annoying 'cooling off period's. I remember it well. Please, trust me, I'm not just saying this. I'm trying to save you a load of stress.
gmcloughlin Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Rally the troops idiots!! I like MCR but Green Day is part of who I am I could never vote against them.

greendaytone Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 That's good if only one count votes, feel much better getting GDA behind it in that scenario.
-Karen- Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 i wasnt even gonna vote to be honest but i heard green day was losing against MCR, MCR i yucky sad to be seeing green day loose
JDookie Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Was the same here! But they still don't let me vote again.. "We have received too many votes from you. You will be unblocked after a cooling off period."
raven052 Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Wow really? I can't remember that it said anything similar to that But well. Thanks anyway! That's good if only one count votes, feel much better getting GDA behind it in that scenario. Yep, once every couple of hours if I remember correctly. And yeah, I remember back in march madness we'd already gone through a bunch of rounds voting like crazy and getting cooling off periods, and then we found that out in the second to last round. Once you've reached the end on the cooling off period you'll be able to vote again (as I explained, once that will count). Cooling off periods tend to last a couple of hours, by the way, but do keep checking, some people were getting out of the cooling offs quicker than others. Basically, vote once. Leave it. Come back in 2 - 3 hours. Vote again. Rinse. Repeat Phew, I suck at explaining stuff! Hope this makes sense to people. (If you want more info, I just checked to old 'march madness' thread back from way back when, on page 94 of that thread it's all there.) Basically if it says 'thank you for voting' or something along those lines, it's counted. But every one after that will say 'thank you, your vote has already been counted' and has not counted. Is that actually what it's saying, by the way? Sorry, as I said in an earlier post, I'm not joining in with this one, (because, well... I'm sure you can tell... Can't bring myself to vote against either ) but I'm pretty sure the messages won't have changed.
raven052 Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 ^ that makes perfect sense! Thanks! Awesome Pleased to be of service!
