Put in about 1000 votes overnight and we are just keeping up. Tough Jihad.

I hope everyone here is voting for the right one, Cara & Harper, not the other Cara, would be funny if CP was Jihading against itself.

If you're not first, you're last!

I've been running my script for a while now (~250+ into it right now)
We were steadily in the lead 43-42, and since I have to running slow as per HOOT's suggestion I can monitor what is going on.
So even though I am consistently voting, the other mom/daughter team have somehow caught up and tied us. We are still in the lead on technicalities, but it is 43-43 now.

I'm 400 votes in now but they have taken the lead 44-42.
We need more people voting.

In a matter of minutes, they have increased the lead to 46-41.
I really don't see how that is possible.

It's 52-36 for Cara & Skylar. I'm going as fast as I can but still falling behind.
They must have many heavy duty autovoters going full-time.

They've got pressure voting triggers hooked up to all the farm animals feet.

quick tip for anyone with a macro, maybe you guys are better than i am and are already doing this, but i was doing it the long way. If you block cookies from that site vote once then have your macro hit refresh and then enter to resend the info. I get 10 votes in 16 seconds that way.

Well I set my system up to continuously run while I was out (~11 to 2). Unfortunately my computer went to sleep sometime during then so it didn't work out as planned. When I got home it only sent out 1500 votes before it went to sleep.

I'll have to turn off my sleep. Anyone know if I set it up for a screen saver if that will have any effect?

Also, the thing is, I was catching up to them this morning and they suddenly kicked it up a notch (I'll have to check the time i posted at). But anyways that means they weren't running all night long, so if we all do our part this thing is still winnable.

Wishful thinking. In Saskatchewan you can watch your dog run away for 2 days......

I'm starting to think we should just stay with them, maybe a little behind, and then the last day of of votes just go nutty to take the lead. Maybe they will think we gave up and they have it in the bag and wake up to the horrible news.
