Good luck to your friend though

OP says: "You don't even have to watch the interview, and you don't have to register"
Why would I vote for some random stranger without watching her interview? Why are you guys doing it? I don't get it.
No, the point is still voting on her over someone else.

So much for the spirit of fair competition.
...except the whole point is that it's basically a popularity contest to begin with, and Oregon happens to have a lot of SC nerds for friends. How many people do you think actually go through all 50 states and choose their favorite contestant?
edit: 50 states + Puerto Rico + Virgin Islands.

All the other contestants are random strangers, that's why we aren't voting for them. uNcontroLable is a member of TL, so we are helping out a fellow TL member.

This thread will be the last one, and can stay open mainly because unc's cake contest was awesome. Good luck to your friend.
Thank you HB... I really appreciate you letting this one stay open, and I understand. The reason I was going to make a new thread for this in a couple days, though, is that the really important vote, the one that actually matters, will be happening in a week or so, and I don't want people to miss it because they already voted for this one. I was hoping people could get excited about it, and then be ready to vote when it's time to actually win the competition itself. How cool would it be if TL was friends with Miss America?  Anyway... maybe a thread name change when I finally get all that info? In order to let people know to check back?

ok voted glad i can help

For all of you that are asking about the old swimsuit pics wager or "what's in it if we win," how about this: When the time comes to vote for contestants in the ACTUAL Miss America competition (sometime next week) if we vote her into the finals, then there's a reward in it for ya. I'll have to check with iNc about him in a bathing suit...is that still what the public wants?

A "win the internet" thread approved by TL?
I'm in!

Sorry!
Theres 0 voting from here on out, that includes changing titles of threads or bumping old voting threads, as that would defeat the entire purpose of the rule.
Regardless, I think you should post the swimsuit pics of Incontrol anyway.

So procedure is to post the voting info for that in this thread as soon as I get it? Cause that was included in the OP, meaning I assume that's still included in "the last thread." Just want to make sure I'm not stepping on any toes.

Classic example of bandwagoning. "Win the internet" is one of the favourite theme in TL after all.

She could still put it in a blog, couldn't she hotbid?
Or are these voting threads hence-on banned from all sub-forums?

No, the "next vote" is not going to be allowed. This thread will be locked when this vote is over. I guess we could go back and forth about whether a string of several consecutive votes still "counts" as one thread or whatever, but we meant what we said earlier. For the foreseeable future, this vote (your link in the OP) will be the last non-SC voting campaign on these forums.

All voting threads are banned on every forum, unless of course the vote is related to StarCraft.

Would you be allowed to post links to voting polls but not request people to vote a certain option?
