Bubbles is winning, but how is this guy second?

The beginning of a new era

Space travel is undoubtedly the key to our future. Scientific literacy is embarrassingly low among many first world nations, and mankind needs a scientific revolution to get the public interested once again. That event will be when we first walk on Mars. Yet, imagine if one of the scientists digs into the Martian soil and discovers microbial life. This discovery would usher forth a scientific gold rush to Mars, and begin a technological boom the likes of which has never been seen. This is why I am pursuing a PhD in astrobiology; so I may be that scientist. I want to be the one to capture the minds of a generation, and inspire all to pursue scientific excellence. To me, space goes beyond mere interest. It is a way of life. Winning this contest would be an invaluable asset in acquiring research grants, starting a cascade of events leading to my success. Going to space would not only be a dream come true, it would be an important step in my journey to change the world.

You can actually see his vote tally going up in close to double digits as you vote...no other score is even moving in the same span.

If he doesn't go up in character, I'll be disappointed.

To Be Quite Honest · 03-30-2012, 07:00 PM

99815 before I VOTED 99855 after my 1 VOTE.

That's a lot of voting in a second!

100k soon! this will be pretty exciting if he does make it.. promises to shoot a 'documentary' almost as good as more tpb episodes.

Ben_in_Canada · 03-30-2012, 09:47 PM

110k and counting.

Bubbles, Ricky and Julian don't do anything out of character.

Wow, a lot of sore losers:

"This has become a #### show. why are you all so hell bent on sending some TV guy to space? thats just sad. this isn't a competition for a reality show it's a chance to experience something that everyone who's ever had glow in the dark stars on their ceilings has dreamed of. all we need now is for brad and angelina to enter this contest to turn it into an even bigger joke then this has now become. to metro and sxc, take some responsibility for this mess you've created. and mike... i have never seen your show and I have no idea who you are, but you've ruined something for a lot of people."

I say F-#$ them if they put out a contest and then re-neg on it just because we think Bubbles deserves it more than some punk that writes a sappy application letter. It is not like the guy is totally loaded either.
