So many addictions, so little time.

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Voted, and for once, I'll even tell you what (and why).

For Locutus of Bored, because his av is really funny, you know the feeling (reading trivia on Wikipedia, IMDb, etc.)

For RJDiogenes, because I also collected SciFi Pulp covers, but when I lost my hard drive a few months ago and all the data was lost, I stopped. It was just to hard to start again from scratch.

And for Gary 7, because these competitions really are so much fun I actually am getting addicted to them. So much so that I even introduced them to another board I visit.

Voted!

 

[Kira's Mom]

Great entries, everyone.

I'm still thinking....

That's a shame. If you like, I can share what I have, or I can hook you up with some nice "Cover-a-Day" Blogs that will make it easy for you.

I really wish you people would put a notice in when you start these contests and when you start the polls. I keep missing them.

A notice where? The thread is posted in Misc and it's always on the front page for the bulk of the contest, and auntiehill posted in the Entry thread to say the voting thread was up. What else can we do to let you know there's a contest?

 

[Ghost07]

That didn't come out quite right... I missed this entry thread because in the LAST poll thread no one said...the new entry thread is up, so I didn't get to see the one that said this poll was up...because I missed the last entry thread...did that make sense?

sorry, I was just ranting because I keep missing the entry threads lately

 

[trampledamage]

oh right - yes I get you. So whoever wins this one, posts here with a link to the new contest, that's a good idea

 

[Niorah]

I missed this one too!

I'll keep my eyes open for the next one.

So, okay, how did I Vote?

Locutus, because of all the entries besides my own I can relate to this the most-- not just TV Tropes, but Wiki and anything else that functions in a similar vein. Hyperlinks just exploit the very foundation of my thought processes.

Zion, because I love KOL, even if I haven't had time for it for a while. But once I get started, in the words of the Blues Brothers, I just can't stop.

And Kai "the spy," not necessarily because I read Fan Fiction, but because one of my great loves of the Internet is reading, watching, buying and otherwise supporting fellow independent creators. I love that modern technology allows us to hear voices that would have, in the past, remained unheard.

 

[Kai "the spy"]

And Kai "the spy," ...

Ah, so you were that guy.

And normally, this would get a cheap laugh. This time, however, you actually are that one guy. Not that I was expecting that many votes at all, as this was more an honest thing. I could just as easily done a Colbert Nation av or something, but I really only am there to watch the current episode, and that's like less than two hours a week. Would've probably gotten more votes, but it wouldn't have been quite honest in "spending much time on that site".

Well, anyway, thanks for your vote.

And it is good to see you popping back in occasionally. (By the way, things have changed again slightly recently.)

 

[RJDiogenes]

^^ I did stop in for a bit over the long weekend, so I got to see some of the changes. But, of course, some things must be "unlocked," so I didn't see everything.

Well, anyway, thanks for your vote.

You're welcome.
