Need a reason to vote for me? I’ve already given you 100. Not enough? Have 100 more:






































































































Oops, guess I got carried away again and gave you 111 instead of 100.
I wanted to save this post for a future match, but it would be rude to hold back while Kabitzin and his minions have been campaigning their asses off. While I’ve been passively watching the votes roll in, the writers for Sea Slugs! Anime Blog have been pulling hair and kicking shins to scrap every last vote they can find. I had no idea this six-man team was so determined to beat my lone, half-blind self. Now I’m honor-bound to return their feelings.
I will not tell you to vote for me. I will not tell you to campaign for me. I will not tell you to monitor the poll until it closes on Sunday, June 20 at 13:00 GMT (8AM U.S. Eastern Standard Time). I only ask that you do three things:
Visit their blog.
Visit my blog.
Then vote.

I can’t believe you’re down by 30 votes! I voted for you again at our school.

I’m a huge Kurt Warner fan. It’s a shame he’s gone. I’m still pissed New York never took him seriously. Leinart appeared on a commercial with the Mannings, so I hate him by association.
I like the receiving corps. They’re still be strong even with Boldin gone.
The Cardinals defense sucks. They’re just good enough at best and Swiss cheese at worst. I don’t know whether to blame the players or the coordinators.
The Eli Manning Sucks blog got a little too popular. That’s a major reason I stopped updating. If I ever get thousands of hits a day again, it’ll be for anime.

I doubt it. I know from prior stats that I have about 300 regular/semi-regular readers. Throw in a few blogger votes and a few votes from out-of-blog campaigning and I’m right where I should be. I’m shocked that so few bloggers are able to match it, especially considering my horrendous search engine visibility.
Anyway, Sea Slugs has six people campaigning like they’ll all die in a flaming plan wreck if the don’t win, so I can’t say I’m shocked they reached 400, even though their previous polls have all petered out around 250.

Even if you lose out to these whatsits you’re not really losing out on much. If you consider ratios, a single handicapped person managed to gather more than triple the votes of half a dozen team which is trying too hard per person.

I’ve been campaigning for you off-line and i manange to get at most 12 people to vote for you, summing at least my 10 desperate votes in different devices/ip addresses, 22 votes is my very limit. I could spend the whole saturday campaigning but i am throwing the towel already.

Don’t feel bad about losing to SSAB, dude. There were 5 or so of them and it took about 120% of their power and a METEOR spell they ripped off of Sephiroth to take you down.
That’s like Goku fighting off Perfect Cell and every other villain he’s fought before (no Naruto references for me. Naruto sucks!).
And they’ve got their 12 year-old bitches too, like clinton for instance.
No big deal.
