Title: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 19-Feb-12, 04:49:21 PM Hi gang! I've got our Border Collie in a month-long photo contest trying to win their $100 shopping spree. It's where we get his hip supplements and with spending a lot on his seizure medication besides, that would be great. It's once every 24-hour period (goes on when you vote, not midnight to midnight) and only has nine days left. YOU HAVE TO BE SIGNED INTO FACEBOOK.
There is another dog that has really been giving us a run for the money (no pun intended), first Billy Bob is ahead, then Xiano, then they're tied................... If anyone would like to help us out it would really be appreciated and thanx in advance if you do. https://www.facebook.com/PETNUTRITIONPRODUCTS?v=app_143571459063364 (https://www.facebook.com/PETNUTRITIONPRODUCTS?v=app_143571459063364) Here is the picture we submitted: (http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/CountryLass_photos/481491116905.jpg) Can't believe he's 20 months old already: (http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/CountryLass_photos/2011-2012%20Billy%20Bob/100_0747.jpg) Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: Kris G. on 19-Feb-12, 04:53:50 PM What a cutie! Voted! Good luck!

Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: Bobbie Ireland on 20-Feb-12, 03:39:52 AM Voted! Pat-pat to Billy Bob!
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 20-Feb-12, 10:59:06 AM Thanx you guys, you rock! :mbanana:
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: Donna on 20-Feb-12, 11:15:43 AM I went to vote today and it said I already did!! Huh??? Said I have to wait until tomorrow!! Hmmmm, strange.
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: ~Ruth on 20-Feb-12, 11:43:06 AM can't tell if my votes went thru or not. I get this screen that pops up and is never ending and have to x out of everything?????
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: Kris G. on 20-Feb-12, 11:48:23 AM I also went to vote and it said that I already did.
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: Dumpsterkitty on 20-Feb-12, 12:12:54 PM I'm pretty sure you have to wait 24 hours since your last vote to vote again, not the next calendar day.
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 20-Feb-12, 05:06:08 PM Thanx all that have and all that tried.
First it will ask to "allow" and although I don't allow much I did with this one. It will only ask the first time. The 24-hour period runs from when you vote. In other words, if you vote for example at 3 PM you can't until 3 PM or after the next day. When you're signed into FB and vote the box by Billy Bob will show a check mark and it will say you voted. Quote I get this screen that pops up and is never ending and have to x out of everything ??? ??? ???Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 21-Feb-12, 01:22:34 PM Shoot, he got behind, he got one ahead this morning, at noon they were tied and now Billy is behind one. :( This has been something else! I'm almost ready to start biting my nails and haven't done that in years. :silly:
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: MAK on 21-Feb-12, 01:36:21 PM Shoot, he got behind, he got one ahead this morning, at noon they were tied and now Billy is behind one. :( This has been something else!

Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 21-Feb-12, 10:34:34 PM You aren't kidding this is getting wild Donna. Most of her votes were usually later in the day or overnight. She must have gotten word out like I did and they're voting earlier yesterday and today. I think it was day before yesterday BB was 20 ahead and all day yesterday was like today. Eight more days of this? What have I done :hysterical: :crazy: Thanx all! :thanks2: He'll get two more in a couple hours when I can vote for Joe & me.
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: Donna on 21-Feb-12, 10:40:52 PM BB is a head by 3! :clap: for now! :devil:

I can't thank you guys enough for all the support you've given Nora and BB. You really are terrific! Best wishes, Annie in Toronto Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 29-Feb-12, 11:45:42 PM At 10:40 CST it was BB 934 and X 955. Looks like without a miracle we've had it.

Rita - Syr. Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 01-Mar-12, 12:39:36 AM I don't know Rita. It's through the end of the month, so that should be the 29th this month, but I don't know the time zone.
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: rssport on 01-Mar-12, 01:02:03 AM The numbers are still going up. So more must be coming in cause when you vote you see the change.
Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 01-Mar-12, 01:15:40 AM I noticed that, she just got another one just now. I figured midnight eastern time because their main address is out of Florida. I don't know..........if it stays open another 10-15 minutes I can get our two votes in, not that it will help that much with it 943 to 977. Wonder where she had all the backup voters stashed......

Quite a spread, but X hasn't been going up anymore (at the moment) One way that can happen is that individuals figure out how to vote multiple times by clearing their cookies between votes. Another is that some "organizations" (such as a certain Animal Rights Organization, that won $250K from Pepsi), have a program that pumps many votes at a time into a poll :( Carol WV Title: Re: Help please, Billy Bob needs votes Post by: NoraH on 01-Mar-12, 11:54:47 AM Quote One way that can happen is that individuals figure out how to vote multiple times by clearing their cookies between votes.
