The Nerdies are upon us again and Yours Truly has made it into the semi finals
I may have taken the crown last year but sheesh, the competition is FIERCE this year so I need you to all go and vote for me so that I can retain my title! Please?
All you need to do is visit this page TODAY and leave a comment saying that you’re voting for me. BTW, I’m known as @cow_grrrl in these parts, so be sure to use that name.

I think I am badly outgunned
Thank you for the vote, I returned the favour
hows it looking?
We find out on Monday who makes the Top 10 of each gender and then it’s the final round.
Jeez, it’s serious stuff this year! 3 Flipping rounds of voting … bit much actually, there shouldn’t have been a “semis” round. This thing is losing momentum.
Anyhoo.
We’ll see what happens.
I have to agree, too many rounds isn’t the best, but let’s see
I think Sue has it hands down for the chicks.
Chris, seem’s like you and Nick are walking this for the guys, but I am here to make sure it ain’t that easy!
Haha, Geoffrey, play nice
define “nice” !
Simple, vote cow_grrrl, then vote ChrisM..
i did half the job…couldn’t force myself to vote for that Chris dude. hehe
hahaha!
seems like you walking it anyways
(damn your fan base)
Wait until I send out a message to my subscriber list
chris: “what you mean my server has been blacklisted?”
I didn’t mean to, I swear!
I know the semi’s was a bit of a ball ache too, but the truth is, one person handling this compo isn’t enough – next year I plan on having a better tech system. In the interim I had to decide whether I could risk getting behind on the admin of the compo by making it shorter than last year, or giving myself some time by stretching it over 3 weeks.
In my defense though, most competitions have 3 rounds… voting, semi’s & finals. How else are we supposed to define who should really get to the top ten, you know?
Anyway – here’s hoping next year goes a bit quicker and pain free.
Hey Bee
I think if you cut out the semi-finals, you’d find it a lot easier to manage. It’s just a fun thing so no-one’s going to object to that.
