I'm really awed by the turnaround from TB's video. Completely astounding.
I do wish we were a little more mature about the whole thing, though. The instant Glider starts winning she starts getting the harassment comments on her user page. They're not accusing us of cheating or harassing us, I don't see why we needed/need to do that to them. Yes, that bullshit needs to stop. Even though cheating on behalf of JenniferESL is likely given the evidence, it doesn't mean she herself is doing it or even has any knowledge of it. Leave her be, she obviously does great work, it's just unfortunate that she had to get drawn against one of ours this time.
Exactly.
As I mentionned earlier, I'm sure she does a great job at teaching English, and all of her own comments are always very respectful towards her competition. There's no need to bash her and accuse her of cheating. Let's win this one with class guys. We're better than that.

Hat tip to TotalBiscuit and Husky for leveraging their fans to win this for Glider. I'm no fan of TB, but he comes through when it counts.

Clearly ESL people benefit from Jennifer, even if we don't.
I voted for ThePortraitArt, but is Jennifer winning so bad? Because her numbers don't add up to the suposrt she is getting. Her videos don't get a 10th of the kinds of numbers she is pulling. Glider has approximately the same number of followers than her. It's possible that jennifer community is more involved, but if you look at her site there is a vote with 144 votes.. (opened yesterday). She has a community supporting her, that is probably a bit bigger than the "glider" community. But Glider got support from TL which has 100 000s of viewers everyday, from husky ( 400 000 subscribers?), totalbiscuit (almost the same), yogcast ( 1million???), a friend of him with 100 000+ subscribers, reddit... honestly this much support would be enough to crush almost any internet based vote. But it doesn't matter if he wins or not anymore, just remember to subscribe if you like what he does, i think he'll like that if he has 10 000 additional subscribers  .
It's highly possible Jennifer had other popular channels help her out too, not to an extent that beats TL obviously but yeah...

I voted for ThePortraitArt, but is Jennifer winning so bad? Well how i see it is this: If someone wants to learn english, they can simply google it, and they will most likely find Jennifer because her following says tremendous things about her and her teaching lessons. (Didn't watch her videos, so I wouldn't know, but her comments say so) . But something as special as Glider's artwork is not something you're gonna be like "Oh hey i wonder if people draw portraits with salt??" Or, "How to draw an image using both your hands", Or "how to draw a completely distorted portrait and make it look amazing by using perspective". So in other words, Glider's talent is not something people can find easily, because people aren't looking for it. Whereas it's much easier to find Jennifer's stuff. Just my two cents.
Yeah, that's a hell of a good way to put it
|
Hell yeah, TB and Husky saving the day :D
|
Oh man it hit yogscast, I will be shocked if Glider loses now lol.
|
If it goes on like this Glider will have more then 50 % of the total votes respect...
You guys know that the spotlight will mostlikely also give at least some attention to sc2,
since there are all those "unknowns" between al the "stars" people might get interested,
who those guys are ;-)

About 8k, that's why we can't afford to stop telling everyone to vote for Glider, she can catch up in an instant.
