Guys we are going up against Western. One last time, even if not a SoCon event.

I think you can vote once a day from the same IP address.

And WCU is winning at present from what I heard.

Unlike some I visit their board and am friendly. In fact I voted for them a few times in the NCAA online vote during the basketball tourney in March. Somehow they were connected in to that and App never got involved for what ever reason.

But in this case if we lose to them, given our alumni base, and school population then I will be upset. Most of the voting will be done by the likes of those that frequent a board such as this, and we are so much more active with a larger base of members.

I've found that, like you, they are civil to me when I am civil to them. They don't call me a Boone Goon if I don't call them a Can'tamount.

From my experience (only a couple times), I've found a couple of them that are completely civil. However, the really vocal ones have been incredibly rude and paranoid, usually unprovoked. Those people are the reason I stay away from there if at all possible. There's only so many times I can bear listening to "I hope you BOONE GOONS enjoy irrelevance in the Slum Belt! Hope your janitor jobs are going well!"

I read it occasionally. That board is a beacon of little-man syndrome every time App is in the discussion...which is every single day.

I don't respond. I got banned like four years ago :?

I stopped posting there a couple years ago myself. However, I do venture over there from time to time in order to get a good laugh.

I'm voting, and all, but am I bad because I really couldn't care less who wins this thing? What do we get for winning? The winner between App and ccc will get to take on Garrett College. I never even heard of it until a couple of days ago.

Someone must be stuffing the ballot box. If so, the website removes duplicate votes at the end. Waste of time

Just vote once a day and be done with it. I think it uses a cookie to track daily voting, and they may also dump out loads of votes from one IP address.

They adjusted for ballot stuffing last year.
