:!: Excelent Man you are #3 now!

I voted and will vote as long as I can. It takes a lot of will power for something like this not to get you down. You’r brave and strong willed. Love you man. :cool: keep on trucking I will be praying for you.

Mike

No aLx it says you can vote every 23 or so minutes. So vote all you can. Let’s get behind him all the way.

Mike

I mean 23 or so hours after you have voted. My misstake.

Now Jay ‘Austin’ is now #5 and climbing. Well climbing might be a little exaggeration for his climbing arm is still on the drafting table. :???:
I borrowed his gloves last winter and lost one of the gloves so I sent that glove back to him thinking he only needed one glove anyways. He called me up and said he needed the other glove. Oh but I thought you only had one hand? I said. He said, yea you sent me the right glove I needed the other one. Oh Ok well I have to buy you a new glove then. So I went to Wal-mart to by a new glove and did you know they only will sell them in a set of two? :roll: The guy at the counter said they are on sale. Buy one and get the other free. :shock:
If you believe that I have a bridge to sell you. Good story though. :wink:

capman,

you can vote once with one IP. if you get another one, you can vote again.

yeah, #3 now.

yes it was a good story…. so if i understood correctly you hang out with some guys on the time bandit? have you ever gone out with them on a lobby run? was i fun? did you have to work?…i like asking questions

is it understand or understood :oops:

oooooooh!!…. i must learn to read the whole page i must learn to read the whole page i must learn to read the whole page….

Done. Keep the shiny side up, Jay!

PageDoll,
Eddie, Scott, and Donald are students of mine. They are working on getting their 100 ton N.C. Masters ticket. Its not a federal requirement for fisherman to have it but they wanted to expand their knowledge. Also it lowers the insurance cost. Many of my students say that my class should be the minimum level of knowledge for any boater.
I’ve only been on the TB for dropping off school supplies. Its in dry dock right now getting a lot of work done.
:mrgreen:

just voted for ya again Jay :) great to see you ranked number 3 now :D

let’s keep going fellas, and hopefully jay will get ranked number 1!!

I voted again as well :-)

Vote early and vote often.

My mouse finger has a s-s-s-s-stammer.

I just coted again for you Austin.

Capman911 From HFW :smile:

Me and my spelling it’s VOTED. :oops:

great!
you have my vote

Keep voting as often as you can.
I don’t know how the rating system works on the brickfish site, but Jay is now only about 150 points behind the number two spot.
We’re catching up; go, go, go.

I liked your video
Was that the First time you went skiing Jay?
I remember my first time, I was stuck on a beginner hill and it was so deserted, I sat there unable to get my ski on for at least an hour, and then someone helped me, I skied 30 feet, fell, and I sat there for another 15 minutes before I could get them on again(snow packed on de boot)

Just 66 points behind now.
Vote, Vote, Vote.

yay. #2. \o/

Voting’s paying off #2 now & still climbing fast, Funny that viral meter stiil reads cool, hope there is time to make #1 keep hittin’ it hard & often

Damn straight, You have my vote!

I think the viral rating refers to the number of links on the viral map for each entry which shows the sites where people are viewing the video on sites other than Brickfish.
What I don’t understand is that Jays video is on Marina’s site but there is no link shown for hotforwords.com. Maybe it’s because it’s not the same video as on Brickfish.
Marina, can you get a link set up?
After all, viral works both ways and you would get traffic from Brickfish too.

Well after about 12 tries to reply here I finally can. It was easier to vote for 7 MDM accidentally about 11 times. No cookie on my PC ever gets stale.

I just voted….Good on ya 7milman. ……. You’re up to #2 now.

GL :grin:

just voted for ya again jay :) keep rockin’ :cool:

by the way a big congratz to Marina/HotForWords is in order!! as she has now over 60 million youtube views….CONGRATULATIONS!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

A freakin’ awesome achievement in my book :grin:

he’s SECOND!! We gotta keep them votes coming ! :lol:

Ok, fellas, number 1 is getting 5723 and we are getting 4567.

Marina, post the link on Youtube too, on the description. He’s gonna skyrocket!! ;)

Keep on voting

thanks Miki. I’m glad you’re in my corner!

:shock:
I’m in awe of the love and support from this HFW masterclass. Marina is the luckiest professor in the cyberverse!!!

Anything I can do as 7mil, head TA or otherwise, please let me be of service.

Thanks for the tech support. We’ve moved to med/hot in the viral pool. I’d love to figure out how to max this out.

Also, seems the scoring is based on more than just votes, as I think we have many more than #1. I wonder what the formula is?

:mrgreen: since i thanked you in bobs reply, THANKS BOB!!!

Marina has been my internet hero since the beginning of my journey. I mold my internet presence, demeanor and outreach after the HFW winning formula.

thanks, WF

do I sence a little down under in that reply?

I was using Safari here and it was giving me angina. Happy 2 say that Firefox works much better. Marina is a FireFox!!!

I’m HFW for LIFE!

Anything I can do? Need anything Bionicked?

Many thanx aLx

:twisted:

I had skied from age three to about 18, then I hit Cali 4 College and took about 10 years off. Then started boarding.

After the accident, I thought boarding would be easier for an AK (above knee) amputee. IT WASN’T.

Witness the bloody training: http://gallery.mac.com/jgnospelius#100103

Skiing came easier. Less falling. Easier to get up.

Here’s the difference:

Thanks Ali!!! I’m speechless.

does anybody know how this score thing works? it’s obviously not only the amount of votes that count, huh?

I can’t figure it out either; I was looking yesterday at some of the other entries and there was one chap with a humungous viral map but he was only down in 24th place and today I can’t find him at all.
At least we’ve got a link to hotforwords on Jays viral map now.

I added the link to my YouTube channel page as well… you need to win this thing, darnit!

what is needed to get Jay over the top?…if someone figures it out, let us all know… :cool:

well, it says, “Sharing is the most effective way to increase the score of an entry.” sharing means posting, bookmarking, and emailing. so I put the vid up on my site. hope it helps. :D

Thanks for advice aLx. I didn’t think of that one. The more votes the better for Jay.

looks like we’re closing in!! :D

Lets send the link to all of our friends thats in our e-mail address books. LETS GET HIM ON TOP AND KEEP HIM THERE! :idea:

Mike

All I can add is vote vote vote then vote again. :grin:

We all need this kind of attitude Marina.

Jay I left you some messages on the Brick site also. Keep up the great motivation and progress.

Mike

I forgot to tell you they now have a medicene out now kinda named after you. Its called Mirena. Its for birth control. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well I could use a new, well you know what. Mine is old. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey Pagedoll I really put in an application to work on the North Western owned by the Hanson Brothers. But I didn’t hear any reply. Only that you would have to start in one of the fish refineries then maybe be picked up by one of the crabbing crews. :sad:
Mike

Good idea BillyB. I have three computers my self. I am such a dummy. Thanks for looking after our six. :grin:

Mike

Pagedoll you’r not by yourself. I don’t read directions either. Thats when we put up the. :oops: :oops: sign

It to bad we cant just buy one of those north western jackets…but thats cool. it wouldn’t be as special if we didn’t earn it anyways

I wanted one too. But I bought a North Western t-shirt instead. It has some excellent graffics on it. Proud of it I am. :cool:

Well I c we got heem up to #2 out of 37. But his viral meter is kinda low, The #1,3 and 4 spots all have hot viral meters. Just goes to show how much virtual weight Marina can toss around. Only heavy hitters like Marina could do a job like this.

73 and 88
N8ZU

i posted the link on a couple of other sites in bulletin blasts. If everyone here would take a moment to do the same, he’ll be all over the place. Just Do It!!! (-;

Amen raypsi

I got two votes in already today & should get a few more in @ work when i get there, Jay’s still climbing fast.

I did to one on both of my computers. I come back later and do some more. Talk at you latter. :grin:

Mike

I suppose the lustful rights with in the playpen was wrastled with one arm after, after the baby bottle, even lifting Marina out of the playpen, must of been “jealous” they said squirting milk at us. The manufacture of the playpen said it takes 925 pounds of force to close the playpen in the opposite direction with the torn fabric and all not bad for a two year old. I finally got out of the facts of life. The destoryer was born there? Later meant to blame. I thought it was arrowheat! Then we defeat them with clean diapers and the time of arrows? Must be the secret of his strenght and the hush was it the playpen! If I were to say hush the children are quietened then why is there an understanding of this vengeance and a taste. :?:

Jay is way ahead in the vote count, but I voted several times today & noticed the points went up, then down. His view count is lower. Unfortunately I checked some of the others, thus increasing their view count. They’re almost double the views :?: I know he’ll probably win the vote count… must find ways to get points :!:

He’s SOOO close! WE MUST win this thing!!!!

sweet Go Jay!! :mrgreen:

he is #2 when i voted. very cool video. great song too.

15 Days left. Vote, email, view, comment… heck I even got a membership. Keep us posted if you know the best way to get points for Jay.

We’re down to less than 90 points of difference!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
We’re doing FAN-TAS-TIC, JAY, All for you, buddy :grin:

mikiroony on June 2nd, 2008 1:49 pm

We’re down to less than 90 points of difference!!

Marina, is there any way you can put up a reminder to everyone to go and vote? Maybe you can make a “Sticky” comment at the top of every page just under the comment box, next to the “Submit Comment” button, for example.

what the hell is that?

Ranking: 1
Score: 7695.36

Ranking: 2
Score: 7727.00

yay. # 1. :DD

Posted link @ my facebock & got my secretary to post link on her facebook … Also had the brickfish site running in the background all day & everytime the music came on, she hit the vote thing on both computers in this office. 14 more days. The now #2 girl looks competetive & may put up a fight :grin: Keep the pedal to the metal

no, man, it’s not a girl. the girl’s just in the first two seconds or something. that got me confused the first time I saw it.
yeah, got to keep voting.

That’s not a girl? I won’t look again as it increases their view count :lol: , you just don’t look back now. I accidentally voted once for, I think the #4 one, because I went there from one of my history links & hit vote. :shock: oops only once.

Jay is still #1

But it’s still too close for comfort.
( 7858.16 points versus 7793.12 for 2nd place )

Keeping viewing and voting guys!!!

Alx I am old and probably not up on some of the letters uses for shorting words. What does D or as you put it DD at end of a comment mean?

Mike

mike,

it’s just one of those smileys. you know, like the yellow graphical smileys you can click on to put in your posts. I don’t like the graphical stuff, though. a few years ago, there were no little faces doing stuff. some other chat systems don’t even have the possibility to display them. like irc.

so, just bend your head over to your left. I put the D twice there because if I didn’t it would automatically transform “:D” into a graphical smiley. like this. :D

I gotcha now didn’t think about the head tilting. Thanks Alx

Mike

Comment 99 (Reminds me of Triple X movie, with that poor fella Vin Diesel, and the bad guys, Anarchy 99, which happened to be Russians, Marina :lol: ) is to say

WE TOOK OFF, LITERALLY.

7 million man is over 11.000 in his score, while the former rival is sticking to 8k something… Keep voting once in a while, so we keep this going. You’re gonna win, Mr. ;)

I think there’s another reason – he’s fixated on double Ds. :lol:

I don’t know what happened overnight,(or what happened to my previous comment this morning) but Jay is now on a score of 11223.54 and more than 3000 clear of #2.
He’s going into orbit!
Well done to all the voters.

Lets have a voteathon. Every one vote at the same time. :cool:

Arn’t we all. I know some like smaller ones, but I like the bigger the better. :twisted:

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: He’s first, Ladies and Gents!! Now the judges have to listen to the masses! :p

Marina, I am APPALLED. :shock: I can’t believe the judges IGNORED the thousands of votes we brought to the vid. It is outrageous that they picked three nobodies to win the prize after all.

I’m thinking twice before buying any Nike kicks anymore. This is plain bulls*****, man…
