I would have told them to go F themselves. Making someone jump through hoops to buy their product is simply bad business, period.

I look at it as a threat. There have been a great number of suspcious deaths that have been linked to the Clintons (and Bushs for that matter) over the years. All it takes is a google to see for yourself.

Watch them dance as the corporate lobbyists pull their strings.

Can you prove that?

I mean, if you can, you're 100% right, so it's to your benefit to do so.

Whats to prove? I believe its well known that the vast majority of politicians get into politics for their own interests instead of the publics. Lobbyists far outnumberour elected officials in Washington and one of the few officials that is known for NOT taking their money is Ron Paul. They say that Lobbyists don't even bother going to his office. We are called Corporate America not because we are capitalists. We are run by corporations. Once people finally wake up and realize who's running the show, they begin to understand why politicians say what the people want to hear (lie) and then do the exact opposite of what they promised.
I thought the overwhelming vast majority of politicians being corrupt Liars was just common knowledge, but I guess I'm wrong since we seem to keep electing the worst of the worst.
And you really don't have to look hard to find corruption, but you DO have to at least look.
A quick google can work for the most part.

McCain Has Had At Least 118 Lobbyists Running His Campaign

And don't think I just plugging at Mccain, Billarys even worse at taking corporate money (which is the reason she abuptly stopped her support for healthcare reform back in the 90's - She got paid off!) and Obama won't change anything.

This is the reason the rest of the World hates the U.S. :

oh snap you were caught (i think) atleast you won $1000

I've always told people they could vote more than once but only once per day as per the rules, but whether they followed the rules is beyond my control.
I'm fairly positive I lost more votes due to the buggy voting system regardless.

UDR has finally issued a statement regarding the video contest and its early suspension today. Heres what they had to say:

"To All Video Contest Finalists, Participants, Voters and UDR.com visitors,

As you know, UDR recently sponsored the "Movin' On Up" Video Contest. We were very excited about all of the entries we received, and particularly excited about the ten Contest finalists' videos.

Unfortunately, during the course of the Contest voting period, we experienced serious technical difficulties with the voting system. Upon learning of these difficulties we elected, as authorized by the Official Rules, to suspend all voting for the Contest temporarily in order to help maintain the integrity and fairness of the Contest for all participants. And when we took a closer look, we discovered that one or more unidentified individuals had attempted to interfere with the voting process and manipulate the results of the Contest.

After careful consideration, we have decided - again, in the interest of maintaining the integrity and fairness of the Contest - to terminate the Contest and to award a $1,000 prize to each of the ten Contest finalists, in recognition of their achievements and hard work.

We thank you all for your interest in UDR and our Movin' On Up Video Contest."

Although it didn't turn out the way we expected, I'f like to thank all those who voted for Kookie. We appreciate it very much!

Did he actually use another forum to try to boost his point?

No.
He just left the service and has all his fellow navy buddies on a carrier voting for him from overseas, which explains the late night spikes. He said there are over 5000 ppl stationed on the carrier.

Finally got a reply from UDR although it isn't much:

"We appreciate your email; however, we are currently looking into certain technical issues relating to the voting process. We will be making an announcement shortly. Thank you for your patience."

I've also been in regular contact with my competitor who informed me that he found this thread from a google search.

Look at the bright side, you would have lost worse if you didn't have the NG support.

They stopped the voting early without explanation. Since their office is closed on weekends, don't expect to hear anything until next week.
I will let you know when I do, but for now I'm going to rest. Its been a long two weeks.

Hm, this makes it seem as if UDR is siding with video 5.

Yeah. Gotta love the whole timing of it. They never responded to my email or voice mail when I tried to let them know that the voting system was acting screwy. They wait until now just as I'm beginning to catch back up.
I dunno - it can go either way i guess.

Yeah a friend of mine just informed me about it.
Not sure whats going on with it yet, all I know is that I was still down by 1% (like I have been all day) when it stopped.

What will happen if it does?

Ties result in UDR judges selecting the winner
with at least a hundred votes making up a single percent I doubt it will tie.
But id crap if it did and still lost.

Not with 6 hours left to go man sorry.
I'll shud up after the voting is over though.

PM from alrd:

I'm at this LAN right now with 5k people and I told like 100 people to vote k?

Thanks a lot , we could really use it right now.
Only 7 and half hours left!

Oh well...

You're not alone. We wouldn't be fighting for position right now if it wasn't for the huge amounts of people not being allowed to vote, even new voters.
If you have DSL, rebooting your modem should solve the issue.
If not, just keep trying.

Maybe not, but just pretend like they are and we'll win.

Being a contestant in a contest for a monetary prize, I cannot legally promise anything in exchange for votes.
What I can say is that everyone who actively participates in this thread will get something from me win or lose, regardless of how they voted.
Thread posts must stay on topic however,

No worries though; You've got the tank behind you.

Get the last votes for today in while you can.
I need the barrel of the tank, not just the treads.

Its a stupid contest but someones gotta win it.
Today - Get to voting!

Help spread the word & vote or this guy wins

The Competition is Mocking Us!

The home stretch is here and with only tonight and tomorrow left every vote is critical.
Some have suspected 4chan as the oppositions voting base and while I cannot verify whether or not thats true, it certainly seems likely. With only 3 points behind I can't imagine giving up now, even though I've fallen ill. Please help give us the win by voting for Video 10 and use your secret front page shoutout to help get more votes by posting:
Help NG user win $5000 - Vote for Video 10 @ www.udrt.com/videos

Thanks.

You can also try using this page and follow the "vote here" link if you've been having problems voting. Not sure if it will make a difference but it may help.
movin on up

Thanks we need all we can get.
This is the home stretch with only 1 1/2 days left.
