This will probably work, but we should have a prototype letter to send out.Something along the line of: The fan-voting on the all-star games is a joke. We are organizing a campaign around voting in Rory Fitzpatrick as a write-in. Visit https://www.voteforrory.com for further details. Together we can make it happen. I don't know, that's just a scratch.

Should we crosspost in GBS? That would probably be good for simple vote volume.

There's a guy on the voteforrory forums saying that he's going to put out a podcast (usual audience around 10 000), and he wants to know who started the thing. LecherousJester, I believe its you he's looking for.

SubCrid TC posted:13000 is a whole lot of votes. It's more than possible that Rory isn't there yet. I think that that's somewhat unlikely, especially considering voteforrory.com is almost at 20 000 hits now. There's also the fact that apparently no write-in forward managed to garner more than Nikolai Zherdev, when in the Eastern conference there were three write-ins who had more than he did.

He started with "You guys are crazy," moved to "I'd rather vote for Bieksa he deserves it more" and is currently at "YOU ARE MAKING A MOCKERY OF THE ALLSTAR GAME HOW DARE YOU." I asked him how this was making a mockery of the allstar game, he said "its the allstar game" and I said, "exactly." Some people just don't have a sense of humour.

Sometimes I see him and sometimes I don't, however when I see Messier the confirm page takes a little bit longer to load. Messier lets you know your vote went through. I wait for the page to fully load just to be certain. Its not like I'll die if I don't get in 400 votes an hour.

crashlanding posted:They showed Niedermayer and Lidstrom as the top two dmen in the west "through December 11." Well a 170 000 gap wasn't something that we expected to be able to bridge in five days. I have the feeling that peaking too early could absolutely kill this anyways, as we probably get alot more support in the chase.

r-lam posted:hannan picked up like 160k somehow. get out your scripts, ladies and gentlemen Well. By the end of the day Rory should be passed Phaneuf and Pronger, but at this pace he may not be able to catch up with Scott Hannan's completely legit votes. A good measure, still, is that he picked up good ground on Lidstrom and Niedermeyer. e: Where are those numbers coming from?

They have three of the top four forwards, and Thornton has a 140 000 over Sakic. Toskala has come out of nowhere to sit as a write-in for goalies. Still. Rory absolutely smoked Lidstrom and Niedermeyer last week better than two to one.

Almost 100 000 write ins for Toskala. With that power behind Rory we would be unstoppable.
