ACtually, the owner gave up, and it looks like he took off for a vacation in Orlando, if you read the other thread at that fishing site. He still has a bunch of people who haven't given up, though.

No that is Jerzy Joe owner. frankie was picked as the second best, because lucy was doing so well a lot of people changed there macros over to vote for frankie. He had about 5k votes yesterday.

LOL .. :) The second news station just left our house.. they were about 20-30 minutes later getting here than we expected. Turns out they had to stop at 5-6 gas stations just to find a bag of CrackerJacks! Guess it's having an effect down here too.

In other news we are on at 5 PM on one station, 6 PM on the other (if they can get editing done in time), and 10 PM on both... I'm really anxious to see how many votes we get after they run, on top of the pace we have been keeping :)

Thanks everyone! I'll try to get the shows transferred to my PC sometime this weekend and post for all to see.

I've got an urge for some Cracker Jacks now too :) Do grocery stores normally carry them? I was planning on going there tonight anyway.

It still cracks me up that they never tracked down ATOT as the real force behind Lucy. The people on the fishing site and IGN have been doing all the bickering while ATOT has been sitting back controlling the vote :)

If we still have tons of people out there voting for Frankie, I bet Frank will take the lead overnight.

I actually did all kinds of searching for content of this thread on google, and had a really hard time coming up with it. The only way I did find it within the first 5 search pages is to use a username in the search.

Thanks for the news flash.

Lucy has a very large lead again (71,000ish). Frankie has been behind by about 25,000 all day. How about a little more effort to push Frankie into 2nd place?

The main goal is to have Lucy win but JJ coming in 3rd would be hilarious.

Ignored some earlier rudeness against the other competitor, but I'm out now. Vanstorm, Lucy's a cutey, all the best. Too bad some who have joined your cause are so ugly.

Some people take competition a little more seriously than others :)

Thanks for your help. It is certainly regrettable that this turned kinda nasty, but it did so on both sides. I've tried to refrain from making negative comments about the competition, I know they are just trying their best to win, just like me. It is inevitable when you get this many people involved that the more passionate folks come in too :) This whole thing took off way more than I ever imagined and kinda got out of my control. I do welcome all the help, and appreciate all the comments. Some people just word things differently, that's the way the world is I guess (especially the internet), but the point of the message is true with what others are saying.

I apologize if you've been offended.

If you're not cheating, you're not trying, and you're only cheating if you get caught. :)

You know, if you think about it, Lucy already technically has over 400,000 votes. :p

Jerzy Joe seems to have picked up a bit more speed and is now increasing his lead over Frankie. We need to keep an eye on this and make sure there isn't some late charge for the lead.
